Features: This book is available for scientific and technical workers in fruit and vegetable cultivation, as well as agricultural technicians at the county and township levels. It can also serve as a reference for students and teachers in higher vocational and technical colleges and universities, as well as related majors. China is an agricultural country, and every year, large quantities of fruit and vegetable crops are harvested across the country. How to preserve these crops is a critical issue that farmers and grassroots technical workers urgently need to understand. This book summarizes the author's years of experience and research achievements in the field of fruit and vegetable storage and preservation technology. It focuses on introducing the storage and preservation techniques of more than 30 common dry and fresh fruits, more than 30 vegetables, as well as common melons like watermelon, honeydew melon, winter melon, and pumpkin. The emphasis is placed on "on-site storage and preservation" technology using natural cold sources for cooling, which requires low investment costs, quick results, and is easy to master. Some locations can achieve investment, return, and profit within the same year, making it suitable for grassroots agricultural technology extension departments.
