Note: The above mentioned temperature and fresh-air exchange settings for each commodity are only recommended set points.
The post-harvest life expectancy and best temperature management for each commodity also vary by cultivars and post-harvest handlings.
Recommended temperature and fresh-air exchange settings are for general guidance only. These recommendations are based on standardized assumptions and industry research. Optimum settings may differ depending on the specific commodity, post-harvest handling and other variables. Shippers are responsible for determining the optimum settings best suited for their cargo.

  • The above mentioned temperature and fresh-air exchange settings for each commodity are only recommended set points.
  • The post-harvest life expectancy and best temperature management for each commodity also vary by cultivars and post-harvest handlings.
  • Recommended temperature and fresh-air exchange settings are for general guidance only. These recommendations are based on standardized assumptions and industry research. Optimum settings may differ depending on the specific commodity, post-harvest handling and other variables. Shippers are responsible for determining the optimum settings best suited for their cargo.
