Transportability of highbush blueberry

Vaccinium corymbosum L.

The transportability of highbush blueberry is determined by its cultivar-specific storability when kept under low positive temperatures (+4 °C…+5 °C). This trait is a key criterion for assessing the suitability of berries for the fresh market.

In the reference 13 varieties crop Highbush blueberry, where this is mentioned in the description.

The degree of blueberry transportability is assessed based on the duration of the period during which the fruits retain their market quality. For highbush blueberry cultivars, storage periods typically range from 29 to 51 days, whereas early-ripening cultivars can be stored for approximately 25 days.

This indicator is influenced by the harvesting method and the maturity stage of the berries, with mechanical harvesting reducing the transportability of the fruits due to the risk of skin damage. Late-ripening cultivars generally exhibit better storability; however, the actual shelf life depends heavily on seasonal weather conditions and the level of precipitation during the ripening period.
