The fruit picker should wear gloves, cut the fruit together with the fruit handle with a round fruit cut, and then cut the fruit pedicle and gently handle it. Fruits are picked in order from the outside to the inside and from top to bottom. All the containers of the fruit are required to be smooth, and the fruits should be transported to the packing yard or storage in time. Avoid sun and rain.
