Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harvesting, Storing, and Packing Apples for the Fresh Market: Regional Practices and Costs There are five major apple production regions in the United States. In each region, production for the fresh market consists of different proportions of various varieties, grades, and sizes of apples. Harvesting, storing, and packing practices vary according to means of procurement, picking labor used, length of the storage season, type of storage, quantity of apples stored, type of containers packed, terms of sale, types of buyers, and the geographic markets served. The picture is further complicated by differing cost structures for harvesting, storing, packing, and transporting fresh apples to market. Since survival in the fresh apple industry depends on all these factors, each packer and shipper is vitally concerned with the relative efficiency of his operation and with the competitive position of his region. Apple growers are interested in factors that influence their returns be tween the time apples are harvested and the time they are sold. The concern of growers, packers, and shippers was especially evident during the three marketing seasons through which were characterized by high production levels and depressed prices for both fresh apples and apples for processing. The crop, which was the largest on record, exceeded 160 million bushels, including over 88 million bushels marketed for fresh consumption. Consumers are also interested in the costs involved in producing and mar keting apples through to the retail store. Consumers have frequently asked why apples cost more at the retail store than at the orchard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Mechanical Harvest of Fresh Market Apples written by Zhao Zhang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the progress, changes, and evolvement for apple mechanical harvest during the past decades, which include, but not limited to, bulky harvest method, harvest platform, apple infield sorting, and harvest robotics. Though there are significant progresses in apple harvest robotics, there still is a long way ahead before its practical applications, with existing and potential bottlenecks described in this book. Hence, other researchers would take advantage of this book to have a hint of the apple mechanical harvest history and state-of-the-art progress, so that they can find the room for their new research. This book targets senior undergraduates and more importantly graduate students in the field of agricultural engineering, sensing, automatic, and robotics.

Book excerpt: Abstract: A report of a US congressional subcommittee focuses on the assessment of food industry cost data price factors for evaluating the issue of rapidly rising consumer food prices. The report includes a series of federal questionnaires that were developed for this assessment, which, due to the reluctance of the largest food industry firms to provide a variety of fiscal data (e.g., direct and indirect costs, income, taxes) are largely published without the requested data. The report also provides information concerning: a preliminary assessment of USDA's farm-to-retail price spreads for a variety of foods (beef, pork, bread, dairy products); an assessment of price margins in the beef industry; and the economic organization of the milling and bread industry. The legal and public justifications for conducting these studies are detailed. Extensive tabular data are presented on the fiscal and quantitative dimensions of the food industry, including acquisition and production activities, processing, wholesaling, and retailing.
