How to prevent rot during the transport and storage of pineapples?

Pineapple is a non-climacteric fruit vulnerable to various air quality-related diseases (ethylene, VOCs, and fungal spores) that reduce its postharvest life during storage and transportation. Effects of ethylene and VOCs on pineapples The quality of the pineapples can be seriously affected by the ethylene produced in postharvest: Stimulates senescence Increased risk of fungal infections Increased ethylene production due to rotten fruit Chilling injuries On the other hand, microbial populations communicate with each other and with their hosts by emitting and detecting small diffusing compounds (gas signals). Thus, volatile VOC emissions are currently being investigated as a communication language between plants and the environment. To avoid the development of diseases and the senescence of the pineapple, it is recommended to eliminate ethylene and VOCs during transport and storage. BION Fungi Stop sachets for the transport and storage of pineapples The efficacy of BION Fungi Stop Sachets on pineapple has been shown in different field trials and is backed up by Bion sales experience. Fungi Stop BION Sachets reduces: Rots and decay Weight losses Acidity Softening Yellowing Chilling injury (internal browning).
