The article discusses how using a substance called 1-MCP before harvesting fruit can help improve its quality after it's picked. By spraying 1-MCP on trees before harvesting, the fruit can stay fresh for longer and be less likely to get damaged during storage. The researchers looked at how different crops responded to this treatment and found that the timing and amount of 1-MCP used can make a big difference in how well it works. Overall, using 1-MCP before harvesting fruit can help keep it in better condition for longer periods of time.
