Low oxygen levels can increase the storage life of produce. But too-low levels can encourage anaerobic volatile growth, with disastrous effect. How low can controlled atmosphere (CA) storage operators safely go? Satlantic's HarvestWatch system provides an answer.
Instead of basing their settings on general guidelines, HarvestWatch lets operators set [O.sub.2] levels based on the specific produce in storage. Since the 1970s, researchers have investigated the use of chlorophyll fluorescence to monitor plants and their response to environmental changes. Now Satlantic, knowing that chlorophyll fluorescence indicates low [O.sub.2] before the development of associated ...
