Ohio State University Extension engineer I P Blauser says proper farm cooling preserves egg quality far better than later refrigeration. He cites tests showing 100 days at 38 degrees equal to three days at 98, and notes farm coolers cost 300 dollars and up yet can pay back in under two years through higher egg returns.
