Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for fresh apricots. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Decay, mainly brown rot and rhizopus rot, is the greatest hazard in handling apricots, so cool them quickly and hold them as cold as possible. Produces significant ethylene: store apart from ethylene-sensitive produce. Highest freezing point: -1°C. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
