Technologies Involved in Handling Export Lychee

    Taiwan produces large quantities of high-quality lychees. Because of the high perishability and short shelf life of lychees, export has been challenging. However, TARI scientists have investigated the postharvest physiology and optimal handling technologies for this crop and developed a practical handling procedure for use in export practices. Recently, we assisted a nearby farmers’ association in adopting the method in a trial export of Taiwan lychees to Singapore. After a successful trial, the export quantities increased annually. The procedure abstract is presented below.
