Chemical control of postharvest mould growth on litchis was investigated. The best results were obtained by dipping the fruit for 10 minutes in a suspension of 0,375 g dicloran 50 per cent wp plus 0,625 g benomyl 50 per cent wp per litre water, which was preheated to a temperature of 52°C. Dipping of the fruit in cold (± 25°C) fungicide supensions, was much less effective.
