Clever Tips for Storing Fresh Peaches, Easily Extending the Supply Period
There are many peach varieties. With different early-, mid- and late-maturing periods and cultivation methods, they are supplied to the market successively from April to October. Fresh peaches have a short storage life and are prone to rotting and spoilage. If appropriate fresh-keeping methods are adopted, the fresh peach supply period can be extended and economic benefits increased. Bruise-free harvesting, grading and packaging. To judge peach fruit maturity: first, after the fruit has fully developed, the skin begins to lose its green color, the flesh is slightly firm, and colored varieties have basically reached full color, this is the firm-ripe stage. Second, when the fruit's ground color is green or light green, the fuzz on the fruit surface begins to decrease, the flesh is slightly

Detailed Guide to Peach Storage and Preservation Techniques, Extending Peach Storage Life
Some peach varieties ripen during the high-temperature summer season, and their harvest maturity and eating maturity are reached almost simultaneously; in addition, the fruit is soft and juicy with poor storability. However, storability varies greatly among varieties: honey peaches have the worst storability and can only be stored for about 1 week, while late-maturing varieties such as Fei peach, winter peach, and Qingzhou honey peach are relatively more storable. The main problems that easily occur during peach storage include: over-ripening and softening, rot caused by pathogenic bacteria, and chilling injury. The main technical measures adopted in production include: (1) Immediately pre-cool the fruit after harvest: immerse the fruit in 0

How to Store Fresh Peaches to Extend the Supply Period
Peaches have many varieties, and with early, mid and late maturing types and different growing methods, they are supplied to market successively from April to October. Fresh peaches have a short storage life and are prone to rotting and spoilage. If suitable fresh-keeping methods are adopted, the supply period of fresh peaches can be extended and economic returns improved. Harvest without injury, grade and pack. To judge peach fruit maturity: first, after the fruit has fully developed, the skin begins to lose its green color, the flesh is slightly firm, and colored varieties have basically reached full color, this is the firm-ripe stage. Second, when the fruit's ground color is light green and the fuzz on the fruit surface begins to color, it is at the seven-to-eight-tenths ripe stage. Firm-ripe stage

A Detailed Guide to Jujube Fruit Storage Methods: Easily Extend the Fresh-Keeping Period
I. Timely Harvesting Jujube fruit maturity is one of the important factors affecting the fresh-keeping effect of fresh jujube storage. Many studies have shown that jujube fruit maturity is negatively correlated with storage performance: the lower the maturity, the more storage-tolerant it is, and its storage tolerance declines with jujube fruit maturity. White-ripe fruit is better than early-red fruit, early-red fruit is better than half-red fruit, and the storage tolerance of fully red jujube fruit declines noticeably. In 1985, the storage performance at different harvest times at the Fruit Tree Research Institute of the Shanxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences showed that for pointed jujubes picked from the same tree at different maturity stages and stored in a cold store at 0°C±1°C

What methods are there to extend the storage and freshness period of fresh-eating jujubes?
Jujubes contain a variety of trace elements and abundant nutrients, and have unique nutritional and medicinal value. However, after fresh jujubes are harvested and stored under natural conditions, they have only a few days of crisp freshness, and the flesh quickly turns brown and softens. After several years of experimental research, the author believes that to extend the storage and freshness period of fresh-eating jujubes, the following key techniques must be grasped: 1. Select storage-tolerant varieties. Generally speaking, late-maturing varieties are more storage-tolerant than early-maturing varieties, and dual-purpose varieties have better storage tolerance than fresh-eating varieties. At present, the quality and storage tolerance of Dongzao among fresh-eating jujubes

How should peaches be stored to extend their fresh, crisp period?
Prompt pre-cooling to prevent softening. Because the temperature is relatively high when peaches are harvested, especially for mid- and late-season varieties, if they are not pre-cooled promptly, the peaches will quickly soften, age, rot, and deteriorate. Therefore, after harvest, peaches should be pre-cooled to below 4°C as soon as possible. Generally, two pre-cooling methods are used: forced-air cooling and water cooling. Water cooling is fast: a peach with a diameter of 7.6 cm cooled in 1.6°C water for 30 minutes can have its temperature lowered from 32°C to 4°C. After water cooling, let the fruit dry before packing. Air cooling is slower and generally requires 8-12 hours or longer. Storage

How to store pears in spring? Four methods to help you extend their shelf life
1. Chemical fumigation method. The fumigation method mainly prevents and controls diseases that invade the fruit. First, seal the pears with plastic film, then place a fumigant (such as acetaldehyde) inside the sealed plastic film so that the fumigant concentration inside the plastic film reaches 0.5% and is maintained for 180 minutes, or so that the fumigant concentration inside the plastic film reaches 1% and is maintained for 120 minutes. 2. Medicinal solution soaking method. This method mainly prevents pears from being infected by pathogens after harvest. Soak the pears in a 400-fold dilution of 4% Nongkang 120 fruit tree-specific solution for 50 minutes, then remove and air-dry, then package and store
