Success Story
New method for storing Sovereign Coronation grapes cuts costs, increases income for growers
Eating fresh, local Ontario grapes is a treat that could only be enjoyed for a short time every year – until recently. The Sovereign Coronation variety is the grape of choice for many growers since it can withstand the province’s cold weather, but the quality of the fruit deteriorates quickly after harvest.
Researchers at Vineland were asked to find ways to extend the storage life of these grapes to decrease growers’ losses, maintain the value of their crops and reduce food waste.
