Research of the influence of method of treatment before storage and storage parameters on the value of general losses of red beet taproots

The article presents the results of research of the influence of the method of treatment before storage and storage parameters on the value of general losses of red beet taproots. The taproots after treatment with electromagnetic fields of extremely low frequency and the bio-preparation Baktofit were kept at a temperature of +2±1°С for 56 days and +25±1°С for 21 days. In the process, the relative air humidity was changed from 40 to 90%. The most effective method of pretreatment of red beet taproots turned out to be the joint treatment with electromagnetic fields of extremely low frequency and the bio-preparation Baktofit.
