Main technical content: 4. Harvest quality and safety: Strictly enforce the safety interval for pesticide application and refrain from harvesting during this period. Harvest requirements: When the functional leaves of carrots turn dark in color and the heart leaves turn yellow-green, stop growth, and the outer leaves begin to turn yellow and dry without new growth, start harvesting when the fleshy roots are fully swollen. Avoid irrigation 7-10 days before harvest. Harvest during sunny days. Minimize mechanical damage during harvest and avoid exposure to sunlight after harvest. 5. Post-harvest processing: - Remove the leaf tassels from the carrots in the field, ensuring no damage to the fleshy roots. Keep the carrots fresh, free from mold, with no visible blemishes, striations, or scars. - For washing and cleaning, use a medium-pressure spray cleaning method with a roller brush cleaning machine operating at 192 rpm to remove surface soil and debris. - For peeling and polishing, use a medium-pressure spray cleaning method with a roller brush cleaning machine at 192 rpm to remove the carrots' skin. Then use a 0.020 mm roller brush to smooth and remove minor brush marks.
