From planting to harvest the average production time is 90 days. Most growers use direct seeding.
Harvest/Packing Australian pumpkins are hand harvested and packed into cardboard cartons or bulk bins depending on customer requirements. The bins are transferred to a packing facility where they are either held at ambient temperature or refrigerated and held at 12.5 degrees Celsius (Versteeg, pers comm, September 2016).
Quarantine in Australia Prior to export from Australia, the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) requires a phytosanitary certificate, issued by the Department of Agriculture of Agriculture Water Resources (DoAWR), for each consignment (Department of Agriculture, 2014). Authorised Officers either from DoAWR or industry inspect a representative sample of either 2 percent of the shipment or 600 pieces for pests prior to the container being shipped from Australia.
Logistics Containers used for sea freight of pumpkin must be refrigerated. Two size containers with refrigeration, or reefers, are available from Australia; a 20ft standard reefer, or a 40ft reefer (Maersk Group, 2014). The containers are loaded at the farm and transported to Brisbane. The recommended set points of a reefer with advanced fresh air management are temperature (12.5 degrees Celsius). Various shipping routes operate from Australian to Japan. Most shipping lines have a one day cut off period where a container needs to be at the port before being loaded onto a ship. Shipping times vary from 10 to 33 days from Australia, depending on whether it is a direct or indirect route.

Most common direct routes to Japan are from Australian east coast ports of Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Connections can come from Fremantle to Melbourne, alternatively Fremantle to Japan routes may be investigated that transmit via Singapore, Hong Kong or other Asian ports. Shipping time to Yokohama port in Japan is 10-11 days from Brisbane, 10-14 days from Sydney, 16-17 days from Melbourne and 21-23 days from Fremantle (transhipped via Singapore). It is then shipped to Japan.
Quarantine in Japan On arrival in Japan, Australian pumpkins will be subject to quarantine inspection and a chemical residue test. These are performed by the MAFF, and the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW). A positive identification of a quarantine pest will require return shipping or enforced fumigation of pumpkins by methyl bromide. Depending on the frequency of fumigations, this is normally paid by the importer. The cost varies between (800 AUD and 1,334 AUD).
Storage, re-packing Pumpkins are transported to the warehouse of the importer where it is stored.
Distribution to Retailers and Wholesalers Imported and local pumpkins are sold in supermarkets in 100 gm sizes or sliced or in segments. No whole pumpkins were seen in stores. Most of the packing and cutting is done at the store level. Imported pumpkin is sent to the wholesale markets including Tokyo Seika Wholesale Fruit and Vegetable market and Ota Markets. During a visit in June 2016 only Mexican and local pumpkin were in retail stores.
