ETHYLENE NO Peach Market Life Increase in market life of preconditioned peaches during 8h at 8 o F compared to untreated (no cooling delay) based on development of chilling injury during storage at 3 or 1 F. Change in delayed cooling treatment Change in maximum market life at 3 F (weeks) Change in minimum market life at 1 F (weeks) Elegant Lady Summer Lady 1 + 1, O'Henry Zee Lady Ryan Sun + Basic Requirements of the Preconditioning Program Infrastructure such as a ripening room and forced air capacity should be available for a reliable preconditioning/pre-ripening program. Trained and experienced quality assurance personnel and a ripener are key components of this program. Make quality data accessible.
7 Critical Points for a Successful Preconditioning Program Optimize your fungicide application operation. Slow down fruit softening after preconditioning-pre-ripening process. Control fruit and chamber temperature conditions and fruit firmness evolution during the preconditioning-pre-ripening process. Monitor and determine the end of the preconditioning-preripening process. Retail handling instruction for preconditioned fruit. Communicate with Your Growers, Merchandisers or Supervisors Ripening ending point 7
