The International Conference on Controlled Atmosphere and Fumigation in Stored Products (formerly the International Conference on Controlled Atmosphere and Fumigation in Grain Storage) is the leading international meeting reporting on advances in research and development on gaseous treatments applied to protect commodities in storage. These commodities include cereal grains, legumes, root crops, dried fruits and vegetables, and other agricultural products including bulbs and flowers; excluded are CA treatments for quality preservation of fresh agricultural products. The Permanent Committee of the International CAF Conference (in a meeting held during the Conference in Cyprus, 1996) selected the Horticultural Crops Research Laboratory (HCRL), USDA, ARS, in Fresno, to host the present Conference, because the HCRL has been instrumental in implementing advanced dried fruit and nut processing and storage technologies under hot and dry climate conditions of California.
