1-4 C The storage life of fresh perishable foods such as meats, fish, vegetables, and
fruits can be extended by several days by storing them at temperatures just
above freezing, usually between
slows down Refrigeration ___________ the chemical and biological processes in foods, and the
accompanying deterioration and loss of quality and nutrients.
Early attempts _____________ to freeze food items resulted in poor- quality products because of the
large ice crystals that formed.
cold storage facilities used to minimize post-harvest losses
First In, First Out principle

temperature control ______________ can have huge benefits for the improvement of shelf-life and product;
however, benefits will only realize if the cold storage is managed properly
1. harvest The different stages in the post-harvest cycle can
2. precooling be summarized as:
3. transportation & packaging
4. cold storage
5. display at the market
harvesting For harvest procedures the subsequent points are important to consider:
1. choosing the correct harvest time refers to both the ripeness and maturity of
the produce as well as the right time of the day.
2. harvesting of delicate, high value produce is best done manually
3. do not place produce on the ground directly, but use harvesting mats or
containers/baskets instead
handling 1. before being put into storage, produce should be sorted and graded with
regards to quality
2. produce needs to be cleaned before being put into storage containers and
entering the storage rooms.
3. time span between harvest and the placement into storage needs to be kept
as short as possible

transport 1. trucks, carts, etc. should not be overloaded to avoid damage
2. use high quality packaging that will withstand the transport
pre-cooling refers to the rapid removal of field heat shortly after the harvest of a crop.
field heat can be defined as the difference in temperature between the temperature of the
crop harvested and the optimal storage temperature of that product.
1. lowering the required workload of a cold storage benefits of pre-cooling
2. restricting and minimizing respiratory activity
3. preventing microbial growth
4. decreasing rate of ethylene production
5. delaying chilling injuries for certain fruits
