According to McMurray, Bartholdi presented an excellent argument for\nhow economic value can be generated by the new trace back laws and how easily\nthis can be done by using data collected for trace back to predict forward in\ntime the quality of the product and its shelf life. Work being done by many\nresearch groups around the world, including Georgia Tech, shows that it is\npossible to develop sensor hardware and software to automatically grade natural\nproducts including citrus fruits, apples, corn and jalapenos at the packing\nhouses. The opportunity to apply new technology at the farm that enables\npredictive modeling of product quality and shelf life has the ability to\nrevolutionize the agribusiness community. \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.foodlogistics.com\/publication\/article.jsp?pubId=1\u0026amp;id=4185\u0026amp;pageNum=1\u0022\u003EClick here\u003C\/a\u003E to read the article. \u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis is the sixth installment of the \u003Cem\u003ECool\nInsights\u003C\/em\u003E column in \u003Cem\u003EFood Logistic\u003C\/em\u003E\nmagazine hosted by Integrated Food Chain center at Georgia Tech. \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/ifc.scl.gatech.edu\/news\/article\/62767\u0022\u003EClick here\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;\nto read more about the column and to find links to all six installments. \u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EWriting\nfor the \u003Cem\u003ECool Insights\u003C\/em\u003E column in the November\/December\n2010 issue of \u003Cem\u003EFood Logistics\u003C\/em\u003E magazine,\nGary McMurray says that work\nbeing done by many research groups around the world, including Georgia Tech,\nshows that it is possible to develop sensor hardware and software to\nautomatically grade natural products including citrus fruits, apples, corn and\njalapenos at the packing houses.
