Storage Facility Sanitation
Sanitized storage facilities help to keep crops free
from pathogen contamination and increase
postharvest shelf life of produce.
Wash, rinse, and sanitize storage facilities,
equipment, and food contact surfaces before
harvesting and storing crops.
Thoroughly clean facilities, equipment, and
food contact surfaces before they are sanitized.
Dirt and organic matter on surfaces
prevent sanitizers from killing bacteria and
viruses.
