This guide explains **tomato storage requirements, cold storage machinery, preservation methods, and industrial-scale solutions**.

---

## 🌡️ 1. Tomato Storage Requirements

Tomatoes require carefully controlled environmental conditions:

- Storage temperature: **10°C–13°C**
- Relative humidity: **85%–90%**
- Ventilation: continuous air circulation
- Ethylene control: essential for delaying ripening

👉 Important:
- Temperatures below **10°C** may cause chilling injury (surface pitting, poor ripening)
- Temperatures above **13°C** accelerate ripening and spoilage

## 📦 2. Storage Duration Based on Ripeness

The storage life of tomatoes depends on their maturity stage:

| Tomato Type        | Storage Temperature | Storage Duration |
|-------------------|--------------------|------------------|
| Fully ripe        | 10–13°C            | 10–15 days       |
| Semi-ripe         | 10–13°C            | 20–30 days       |
| Green mature      | 10–13°C            | 30–35 days       |
| Controlled atmosphere | 10–13°C       | Up to 45 days    |

👉 Controlled atmosphere storage can significantly extend shelf life.
