The work aims to study the direction of the new fresh-keeping technology with respect to the current development situation of the fresh-keeping technology of fruits and vegetables. Three main factors affecting the storage of fruit and vegetable were elaborated by analyzing the characteristics of fruits and vegetables. According to such requirements as safety, nutrition and freshness of fruits and vegetables, many kinds of domestic and overseas fresh-keeping technologies of fruit and vegetable were analyzed and studied, and the future research direction was put forward. The application of fresh-keeping technology can extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables, but the single fresh-keeping technology has some shortcomings. The synthetic fresh-keeping technology will be the development direction of the fresh-keeping technology of fruits and vegetables.
