Other claims from this paper (6)
- Method / resource System I maintained relative humidity of 90 + 5%.
- Method / resource System II maintained relative humidity of 85 + 5%.
- Intervention effect Both evaporative cooling systems reduced potato physiological weight loss relative to ambient storage.
- Intervention effect System I yielded less potato physiological weight loss than system II.
- Method / resource Both cooling systems kept internal air temperature close to wet bulb temperature.
- Intervention effect Pretreatment with NAA and Beniate eliminated potato spoilage in cooling containers.
