Quality indicators of roots and tubers stored in the storage facilities
Abstract
From the technological point of view, it is shown in detail that, how to maintain storage conditions under moderate conditions and the possibility of extending shelf life with less waste and consists of approximate calculations and often does not correspond to practice. To determine the storage method in more detail, firstly a test was conducted on the storages methods tests. Only after the basic technological characteristics of a given storage method have been developed can a conclusion be drawn about its suitability for the task at hand. For example, if you plan to store potatoes or carrots until May-June, you should prepare a refrigerator. If the storage period is set until January, then warehouse with natural ventilation or cooling with outside air using a fan is sufficient.
