Storage and Shipping
By using technology borrowed from the apple industry known as Controlled Atmosphere (CA) storage, Vidalia Onions can be stored for several months to prolong the marketing season well into early Fall.
The CA process is simply a modification of the air we breathe. Vidalia Onions can be stored for several months in an atmosphere of 92% nitrogen, 5% carbon dioxide and 3% oxygen with the air temperature maintained at approximately 33 degrees with 70% humidity.
