چکیده

Avocados are grown in many countries of the world and are consumed principally as fresh fruits. In marketing fresh avocados, imperfect and odd-sized fruits are usually rejected.

Better utilization of cull and surplus avocados is of particular importance to developing tropical countries where, as compared to California, labor costs are lower but adequate storage and transportation facilities are lacking.
