ABSTRACT:
A novel system to ensure that papaya are free of fruit flies so as to meet quarantine restrictions is described. Papaya are subjected to selection on the basis of color in combination with a two-stage heated fluid treatment wherein time and temperature of the treatment are maintained within narrowly defined parameters. With this system, excellent fruit quality is maintained. The system is suitable for commercial use.
