It was demonstrated that the modern farmer kept up with the modern rate of progress both in farm management and also in many other aspects of life. The pattern of culture had an impact on a very broad range of social phenomena as well as influencing the way a farmer organized his farm.
Controlled Atmosphere Storage of Fruits and Vegetables

The proper application of controlled atmosphere storage is likely to have as great an impact as the introduction of refrigeration technology a century earlier, yet its potential is only just becoming appreciated, despite its use for ap...
