Topic > The importance of preserving fresh fruits and vegetables...

Introduction Fresh fruits and vegetables are an important and notable point in the supply chain. The fresh fruit and vegetable supply chain is characterized by the presence, in the production phase, of numerous small and medium-sized national and international companies. And also the consumer demand for fresh fruits and vegetables throughout the year is a special challenge for this chain and this chain has a strong impact on all the particularities. Therefore, adopting new technologies and new opportunities to improve information logistics can have important benefits for meeting the conditions of fresh fruits and vegetables. An important advantage is the collection of information and determination of the impact on the efficiency of strategic processes of companies. And we can also see the demand for fresh fruits and vegetables on the graph. The other factor is that transporting fresh fruits and vegetables is a complicated subject. Different types of fruit and vegetables have very different requirements regarding safe transport conditions. The movement of produce from source to market provides a direct investigation of large variations in transportation distance, given that many fruits and vegetables are both domestically produced and imported. Rotation and distribution of fresh fruits and vegetables is a very important and critical point that attention should be focused on to meet demand requirements and be successful in the food marketing chain and especially for quality. We should be flexible to new technological innovations and can implement them to gain benefits. There are many factors that influence fresh fruit and vegetables.

Despite the variable heat losses that can occur in different parts of the system and the inevitable increase in the temperature of the circulating air on the return compared to the supply. Circulating cooling air should therefore only be needed to remove the breathing heat of the products and the heat exchanged through external surfaces. A high air circulation rate should be unnecessary and in fact undesirable. Cooling air in modern refrigerated ships and containers is usually circulated vertically, from the deck/floor, upwards. The system is designed to produce equal air pressures across the entire cargo area.• Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) This is a water-soluble yellowish green gas with an odor similar to that of chlorine. It is highly effective at neutral pH. Its reactivity is, however, reduced by the presence of organic matter.
