RECHERCHES CONCERNANT LA CONSERVATION TEMPORAIRE DES TOMATES ET DES POIVRONS

In the researches concerning the behaviour of early tomatoes at temporary storage were used the varieties Moneydor, Nr. 10 x Bizon, and Arges 450; and in the researches concerning the storage of mild peppers were used the varieties Du Danube and Export.

The duration of quality maintaining of tomatoes harvested in different stages of maturity and of the mild pepper harvested at the stage of maturity for consumption was followed by the rate of colour evolution, of pulp fermentation, of losses of quantity, of quality damages and changes in the chemical composition.

Storage of fruits occurred in cool spaces and also in uncool spaces.

PE-films are used for protection of the stacks of boxes which contain mild peppers.

The results give explanations to the technology of early tomatoes and temporary storage of mild peppers.
