METHOD FOR HARVESTING FULLY RIPENED GRAPE, AND PACKAGED GRAPE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for harvesting fully ripened grape by which the grape is prevented from causing berry drop in handling while the sweetness of the grape is increased up to a value approximate to its upper limit (when fully ripened) for each variety. SOLUTION: The method for harvesting fully ripened grape includes: covering a stretchable bag-like net over a bunch of grape from below on the day, or before or after some day when the sweetness of the grape gets to a delivery basis so as to wrap the whole of the bunch of grape; leaving the bunch of grape as it is on the tree of the grape for some days or ten days or more; harvesting the bunch of grape after fully ripened while packaged with the bag-like net; and shipping the bunch of grape. The grape is distributed and marketed while housed in the bag-like net as it is so as to prevent the grape from causing berry drop. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
