SECTION IDEAL
70 PROCESSING
Plain Area Could
Support Year-R Round
Canning Plants

A well-planned fruit and vege-
table processing plant. located IN
the coastal plain area of North
Carolina, could be successfully
operated on a %year-round basis.
So maintains Bailey S. Rich,
a specialist with the division OF
markets of the state department
of agriculture at Raleigh.
In support of this contention,
Rich cites the following schedule
of products which he says could
be- canned in the order given:
Early turnip green's, asparagus
Or strawberries, string beans, okra
and tomatoes, black-eye peas, fall
turnip greens, sweet potatoes,
soups.
Asparagus is an excellent can
ming crop and is available in guam
tity during the third year after
planting, Rich says. A selection
might be made between aspara-
gus and strawberries or a COM
bination of both might De pro-
cessed, he says.
AS for okra and tomatoes, these
two items might be canned sepa-
rately Or in combination, Rich
says. By proper planting, it might
be ossible to preserve the mix
ture for later addition to soups
proposed to be canned during the
winter months. Peaches from the
sandhills section might supplement
these items since they are market
ed at approximately the same
time.
Rich points out that soups could
be canned during the winter
months in order to round out the
full years canning schedule. Dur,
ing this winters operation jams
and %jellies could be added to the
line. particularly early strawberry
Jam made from frozen berries.
In citing the reasons why the
processing of food products has
never been properly developed IN
his state, Rich discusses the fol
lowing factors which he says should
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-02-24

be considered when planning a
p--ne-
/. Failure in general TO pack
a high quality product.
we have been inclined to can
the products which were not good
enough for the fresh market
says Rich, but it must be re-
membered that we cannot establish
a sound business on a salvage
basi. The canning of a product does
not improve its quality"
2. Lack of a sufficiently long
period of operation.
TO be successful" Rich says,
"a processing plant must operate
at least nine or ten months out
of the year, rather than three,
four. or five months. which has
been tried so many times in the
past without success
3. Lack of trained management.
With a large number of com
munity canneries and freezer lock
err plants now in operation, and the
expanded training program at N.
c. State college" says he, train
ed personnel should soon become
available"
4. Lack of planning before going
into the processing business.
1T is essential" he says thai
very careful plannig be done, Civ
ing particular emphasis to the fol-
lowing factors:
The availability of raw prod
ucts, the cost of processing, nor
NAL market price. normal demand,
competition to be expected, cost
of building and equipment, and
other information as is customarily
secured prior to the initiation OF
any type of business" ~
With respect to supply, Rich
says, contracting for the raw
product is important. This insures
the producer a market and the
professor a source of raw prod
ucts.
Rich declares that there are
several cases of successful process
ing plants in North Carolina, as
we'll as in other locations, which
have been built around and based
upon a careful analysis of all the
factors entering into the success
Or failure of this type Of business.
