| Quote: | | ACG President, Mark Chown said, that instead of having to treat fruit bound for Japan at 1°C for two weeks, the new quarantine protocols allowed citrus to be treated at 2º-3º C for 16 to 20 days. Being able to treat fruit with higher temperatures will create greater market flexibility and off-set the problems associated with cold chilling, such as internal fruit damage, he said. |
