Dutch term or phrase: fust
Ik ben ook zoek naar de correcte vertaling van fusten zoals gebruikt in de bloementeelt. Woorden als barrel, cask, wood of butt volstaan niet in deze specifiek context. Ik neig op het moment nog het meest naar 'plastic pack(ag)ing' (fustage in het Nederlands afgeleid van emballage) maar hoop dat iemand een betere suggestie heeft. Bijvoorbaat dank!

plastic bulb crates, which are shallower than most commercially available standard containers, and are thus suitable for fragile, heavy crops such as tomatoes and summer squash. A by-product of the flower industry, they may be available at low cost or free. Check the yellow pages or the Internet for a flower bulb importer in your area.
