The book covers, in comprehensive detail, postharvest physiology as it applies to postharvest quality, technology relating to maturity determination, harvesting, packaging, postharvest treatments, controlled atmosphere storage, ripening and transportation on a very wide international range of fruits and vegetables. <pFruitPostharvest technologyVegetablesPostharvest technologyElectronic books.FruitPostharvest technology.VegetablesPostharvest technology.634.046634/.046Thompson A.
