ABSTRACT:
Three generic methods for selectively fumigating fruit. The methods include: (a) open-box selective fumigation; (b) closed-box selective fumigation; and (c) open-top selective fumigation using an existing picking lug. Also included are three embodiments of a solid-wall, wood fiber fumigation box (10, 18, 30) used to practice the first two methods, and a fumigation facility (32) having an improved fumigation chamber (40) useful in practicing all three methods.
