LOSSES OF FLOWERS POSTHARVEST - A COMMERCIAL POINT OF VIEW |
| Authors: | Janet E. Johnston, M. S. Reid |
| Abstract:
A survey of credits (refunds) by a major California flower wholesaler demonstrated a seasonal fluctuation in the volume of credits as a percentage of sales. Credits over a four year period averaged 1.4% of total sales. The breakdown of credits by source, commodity and season, economic factors leading to changes in the percentage of credit requests and commercial methods for reducing credits are discussed. | |
