I can understand sanitizing agricultural products on harvesting them, but I'm wondering if they have recidual protection for the time they spend in shipment, or on a market shelf. As I understand the coronavirus, on hard surfaces it can live for days, but on softer surfaces, it's less time, I suspect that most vegatables, fruit, etc would be considered softer surfaces, so any virus from harvest ought to be dead by the time it reaches the market.

The market, on the other hand, may have customer with the virus that could get on produce, perhaps it should be routinely sanitized. We make a point of sanitizing what we purchase or have delivered if it's something we want to use immediately, on the other hand we leave it in the garage for at least a day if we don't.
