Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the methods of precooling and shipping California asparagus, a multi-million dollar industry that sought solutions to mold growth that caused massive losses in the 1930s. The author, a physiologist with the United States Department of Agriculture, collaborated with the University of California to research and identify methods to improve the asparagus' journey from field to market. Through a series of tests and experiments, the author examines the variables that affect asparagus quality and shelf life, including temperature, packing techniques, and even the soil where the asparagus is grown to determine the best ways to preserve the vegetable's freshness. These findings laid the groundwork for the industry's current practices and remain essential knowledge for professionals in the field.
