Abstract

This paper aims to establish the influence of the cultivar and storage conditions on the storage capacity of carrots.
The results obtained in 2018 with three cultivars of carrots furnished by ICDLF Vidra and stored at Horting Institute of Bucharest, under different temperatures, are presented, as follows: 20-22°C (ambient storage), 10-12°C (refrigeration storage), and 3-5°C (cold storage). The initial values and evolution during storage of the main biochemical indicators of carrots were determined, including total soluble solids, titratable acidity, total sugar, and vitamin C. After storage, total and mass losses, as well as spoilage losses, were also determined.
The purpose of this study was to identify the cultivar that can be stored better and for a longer period under three storage conditions and to select the storage conditions that can retain the keeping quality of carrots.
