Summary[edit]
DescriptionPremature ripening of bananas during oversea transport from Ecuador to Egypt due to high air temperature in shipping container (14906550275).jpg |
Harvested while completely green, the bananas were packed in 20KG boxes and transported for 30 days by a shipping container that was supposed to be cooled to 13.3 C. The bananas were to arrive in Egypt while still green, and then ripened at a forced-ripening facility before marketing to the consumer in Egypt. Some of the hands prematurely ripened during shipping due to a wrong shipping temperature (i.e., the temperature was too high). Note that the banana hands having wider fingers turned yellow. These hands came from plants that were more mature -- the fruit had filled out to a wide caliper width and therefore were at a more advanced phenological stage of development and more prone to premature ripening. |
