The control of respiratory gases within a storage or packaging environment is often used to extendpostharvest storage/shelf life of fresh fruit and vegetables, and thereby reduce wastage in the supplychain. Current modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) can extend the postharvest quality of freshproduce, but its performance is often limited by its inability to adequately respond to the changingphysiology of the produce, leading to the development of sub-optimal gas conditions. MAP wouldbenefit considerably if it were made flexible and more responsive to these conditions. This project willfocus on the development of the next generation of MAP comprising innovative cost effective insertswhich are able to manipulate the internal atmosphere of the packaging by administering the idealgaseous conditions at the optimum time for prolonged storage & improved management of producein the farmer’s cold storage and the entire supply chain.

在储存或包装环境中控制呼吸气体通常被用来延长新鲜水果和蔬菜的采后储存/保质期，从而减少供应链中的浪费。目前的气调包装(MAP)可以延长新鲜农产品的采后品质，但它的性能往往受到限制，因为它不能充分响应产品不断变化的生理变化，导致出现次优气体条件。如果MAP变得灵活，并对这些情况做出更好的反应，它将会大大受益。该项目将专注于开发下一代MAP，该MAP包含创新的具有成本效益的插入物，能够通过在最佳时间管理理想的条件来控制包装的内部气氛，从而延长储存时间，并改进农民冷藏库和整个供应链中的生产管理。
