average temp. for raising strawberries
Any failure to maintain produce at low temperatures during handling, storage, and transportation will result in loss of quality and marketability. When the temperature of a strawberry is raised from 0 to 10Â°C, its deterioration rate increases two-to four-fold. This means that berries held at 20Â°C have only one-quarter to one-half the life expectancy of those held at 0Â°C.
