STORAGE METHOD FOR APPLES AND PEARS Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC A01F25/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to technology of storage of crop production and can be used for long-term storage of apples and pears. Way of storing apples and pears is to process apples and pears sequentially in two stages, on the first of which in the electromagnetic field of extremely low frequencies at a frequency of 26–30 Hz and current strength of 10–15 A for 5–10 minutes, and on the second – an aqueous solution of Vitaplan biopreparation with a concentration of bioagent 10⁶–10⁷ CFU/g. At the same time, the consumption of an aqueous solution of the biological preparation is 10–12 ml/kg.

EFFECT: implementation of the claimed method will reduce the total weight loss of apples and pears, as well as reduce losses of biologically active substances during storage.
