Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the comparative study of fiberboard boxes and burlap bags as shipping containers for California White Rose potatoes in the spring of 1957. The author examines the costs associated with both packaging materials and the direct labor required for packing and loading, as well as the arrival condition of the potatoes packed in each container. The study reveals that fiberboard boxes, while more expensive than burlap bags, provide superior protection for the potatoes during transit. Potatoes packed in boxes experienced significantly less bruising and discoloration than those packed in bags. The boxes also proved to be more attractive and easier to handle for wholesale trade, leading to a generally favorable reception. The book concludes that fiberboard boxes offer several advantages over burlap bags in terms of product protection, handling convenience, and sales appeal, although they come at a slightly higher cost. These advantages suggest that fiberboard boxes could potentially become the preferred shipping container for potatoes, particularly for those seeking to minimize product damage and enhance the overall quality of their shipments.
