搞好果品贮藏,减少腐烂变质,延长食用期限,对于满足内销和外贸的需要,支援社会主义建设有重大意义。过去我们把低温看作苹果贮藏的不利因素,所以苹果贮藏的方法主要是防冻保温。这种方法不但费工,需要大量防寒物资,而且腐烂率高。为了解决这个问题,我们在上级党委的鼓励和支持下,成立了三结合的科研小组,因陋就简,开展探索露天低温贮藏苹果的规律,变不利因素为有利因素。我们科研组一没有专家,二不靠洋人,是由两个初中毕业生,两个小学毕业生和一个半文盲组成的;要说设备只有几支温度计。当时有人说:“凭这些人的水平还能搞科学实验”!?我们在党的领导下,靠毛主席哲学思想的指导,顶住了这 Doing a good job of storing fruits, reducing spoilage and extending the period of food consumption is of great significance to meeting the needs of domestic sales and foreign trade and supporting socialist construction. In the past we think of low temperature as an unfavorable factor in the storage of apples, so the main method of apple storage is antifreeze insulation. This method is not only laborious, requires a lot of cold materials, and high rate of decay. In order to solve this problem, with the encouragement and support of the party committees at the higher level, we established a three-pronged scientific research group. Because of the simple fact, we should explore the law of open-air cold storage of apples and turn unfavorable factors into favorable factors. One of our research groups, one without experts and the other without foreigners, is made up of two junior high school graduates, two primary school graduates and a half illiterate; it is said that the equipment has only a few thermometers. At that time, some people said: “With these people’s standards, we can still carry out scientific experiments!” We, under the leadership of the party, have resisted this with the guidance of Chairman Mao’s philosophy
