Sommario/riassunto: The transportation and storage of fresh fruits and vegetables is an international operation where technology must be used to ensure that produce reaches the consumer in the best possible condition. The use of controlled atmosphere storage has great potential to reduce the postharvest use of chemicals, maintain nutritional quality and organoleptic characteristics and reduce physical losses. This revised edition incorporates the latest research to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of controlled and modified atmosphere storage.
