Postharvest Handling

Perhaps the single most important factors that affects 'sell through' and consumer satisfaction of ornamental crops is the post harvest performance of crops.  This section focuses on factors that affect the post harvest performance of ornamental plants.

Postharvest Handling of Potted Plants:

Modelling the quality of potted plants after dark storage
Post-production physiology and handling of ornamental potted plants (2015)
How two post harvest care products worked on potted plants (Ahmad and Dole, 2014)

​Postharvest of Fruits/Vegetables:
Cold storage chart & reference guide
Postharvest handling of fruits and vegetables (Bachmann and Earles)
