Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book conducts a study of the factors affecting the damage of watermelons during rail transport. The author compares the traditional lengthwise loading method with two alternative loading arrangements, known as the jumble load and the crosswise load. After extensive shipping tests and analysis, the study finds that the crosswise loading method is superior to the traditional lengthwise method, resulting in significantly less bruising and cracking of melons. The study also examines the impact of transit handling on damage, revealing that the majority of lengthwise impacts occur in yards and terminals, emphasizing the need for more careful handling at these points. The book concludes that the crosswise loading method offers a practical and effective solution to reduce damage to watermelons during rail transport, providing valuable insights for shippers, carriers, and researchers seeking to improve the handling and transportation of this delicate commodity.
