| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is difficult to define damage to fresh produce compared to damage to industrial products. We consider the purchasing behaviour of consumers, such as whether they would like to purchase a fresh produce product, in defining damage to fresh produce. Thus, this study, which uses apples as the fresh product, surveyed the relationship between the damaged areas resulting from several shock conditions and the price that consumers thought reasonable. The results showed that the price that the consumers judged to be reasonable did not change markedly even if the damage area increased to a certain degree. This finding contributes to optimizing cushioning packaging and/or to establishing a reasonable price for fresh produce.
