Excerpt from Crosswise Loading of Long-Type Watermelons
The most commercially important of the new varieties are the Congo and Charleston Gray. They are disease resistant, comparatively prolific, and have excellent eating qualities, as compared with the Cannonball and Black Diamond varieties. However, because of their thin and somewhat flexible rinds at the blossom ends, the new varieties have averaged about twice as much damage in tran51t as the Cannonball.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the long-standing problem of watermelon damage during rail transport, a major concern for the watermelon industry and consumers alike. The author, a transportation and facilities specialist, examines historical methods for loading watermelons and their shortcomings. The book centers around the invention and testing of a revolutionary loading methodâ"the crosswise loadâ"as an alternative to the traditional lengthwise technique. Through extensive experimentation and analysis, the author demonstrates how the crosswise method significantly reduces damage, particularly bruising and cracking, which had plagued the industry. The book further explores the influence of crop harvest time on watermelon damage and discusses the complex issue of internal damage to melons not visible during inspection. This book not only provides practical solutions for reducing watermelon damage but also sheds light on the broader challenges of food transportation and the importance of minimizing losses in the food supply chain. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
