Decreasing the levels of inoculum in the different areas of the packinghouse, as well as in bins, and cold storage rooms is essential for decay control as the fruit spends a large part of the time in them, increasing the risk of contamination.
Maintaining hygienic conditions within the plant and its elements is essential to control decay in stone fruit.
The establishment and application of a correct Cleaning and Disinfection (C+D) program within the plant leads to a significant improvement in the results of decay control and to the avoidance of cross contamination by microorganisms pathogenic in humans.
