                    [Title] => RP mango can now reach distant markets – study
                    [Summary] => Successful – again.


For the second time, a scientific technology has proven that Philippine "Carabao" mango can reach distant markets in good condition.

In the first trial done at the Food Terminal, Inc. (FTI) in Taguig, Metro Manila, mango used in the research lasted for 28 days (Feb. 18-March 18, 2006) with the application of the controlled atmosphere (CA) technology.

In the second trial, also conducted at FTI, the mango lasted for 29 days (May 13-June 11).

It stands for controlled atmosphere, in which fresh produce are stored to delay their ripening and prolong their shelf life, enabling them to reach distant markets by sea shipment.

"CA storage involves keeping fresh fruits in an atmosphere of low oxygen and high carbon dioxide in combination with low temperature," explained the Los Baños-based Department of Science and Technology-Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Research and Development (DOST-PCARRD).
