It is very difficult to export the fresh agricultural products to long distant countries such as America and EU without any damage. Fresh exporting products would be met very hazardous environments such as hot and cold weather, heavy trembles with rolling and pitching. Therefore, care should be taken on tight fastening the products inside the container and keeping the designated temperature and relative humidity. The physical strength of outer box should be applied differently because each agricultural product has its own character for packaging. There have been many agricultural products researches for export packaging to the U.S.A. so far. However they have never got desirable results which enough to apply it in real. The main purpose of this research is to develop optimum compressive strength of corrugated fiber board box which would be used to American export packaging of fresh agricultural products such as perilla leaves, green red pepper and spinach.

Purpose - The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of packing regulations as a technical standard barrier on export trade. Design/methodology/approach - This study analyzed cases related to packing in major countries such as US, EU and so on. It is also show the example of export volume changed based on PRTS. Findings - First, the role of packaging and the reason why countries issued relevant packaging provisions were introduced. Then, the impacts of PRTS on export trade were expounded. And next, we focused on investigating some PRTS related cases in export trade and gave an example of export volume changed based on PRTS. Finally, we produced implications for business leaders to aware of the importance of PRTS in export. Research implications or Originality - This study provide PRTS information to traders. Trade pratitioners can respond to PRTS related regulations, actively develop PRTS technology, and take relavant to deal with PRTS barriers to eliminate or weaken the adverse effects of PRTS on export trade.

In order to improve cut-flower export packaging on the distribution process, newly developed T-type(trapezoid type) container was tested and evaluated on the viewpoints of the protection, workability, and economics. T-type container performed better in protection and workability comparing to 0201 and modified 0201 type containers. Especially, load efficiency of T-type container was 33 percent higher than others, indicating that total distribution costs from Korea to Japan can be saved up to 1.7million dollars per year. T-type container is also advantageous because of its superior display performance and environmentally friendly design. We recommend that T-type container is suitable for most of cut-flowers which are usually horizontally packed such as roses, chrysanthemums, and lilies.

Increasement of total cost during distribution chain requires packaging standardization to reduce extra handling and delays at transshipment point. In Korea, high valued agricultural products to export are most often shipped by air freight. Fresh flowers, in particular, the need to set package standard for air palletization are strongly recommended. This study tried to find an optimum standard dimensions for export packages. After extensive research on combinations of various flower dimensions, package dimensions and pallet sizes, we found that 96 inches pallet was most adequate for international air freight. Based on the results, new 40 standard package dimensions were introduced and stacking efficiencies were calculated.
