Refrigeration Emphasized For Shenandoah Apples Export

The Bureau of Plant Industry urges Virginia Shenandoah Valley and Maryland Cumberland Valley apple growers to ship summer and early fall fruit under refrigeration to avoid decay. Tests show rail refrigeration lowers upper layer temperatures by 5 to 16 degrees and bottom layers by 22 to 36 degrees, but unrefrigerated stowage at 75 F negates the cooling in 2 to 3 days. Refrigerated ships keep fruit at 30 to 32 degrees cooler, delaying softening and decay, with refrigerated shipments arriving abroad in prime condition.
