Maintain storage temperature in the range of 5 °C to 7 °C.
Use forced-air cooling equipment with a minimal air–product temperature differential (ΔT) for efficient cooling.
Recommended storage period is 2 to 3 weeks under optimal conditions.
Controlled atmosphere is not advised, as its economic benefit for kumquats is limited given the short storage duration.
Install an ozone generator to reduce microbial load, and ensure proper ventilation and air circulation are maintained.
