Lets Know something about Post Harvest of Fruits and Vegetables:
Post Harvest Management of Fruits & Vegetables
Cleaning, washing, selection, grading, disinfection, drying, packing, and storage are all examples of postharvest management practises.
These processes remove undesirable elements and improve product appearance while also ensuring that the Post harvest Management of Fruits and Vegetables Storage product meets established quality standards for fresh and processed foods.
The management and monitoring of variables such as temperature and relative humidity, the collection and use of packaging, and the application of supplementary treatments such as fungicides are all part of postharvest activities.(FAO 2009).
Fruits and vegetables have their value added to them in stages after they are harvested, before they are eaten.
The aim of post harvest management is to increase this added value as much as possible. Whether by improved export earnings or extending the availability of fresh produce throughout the year, this could eventually benefit the entire community.
Since quality cannot be improved after harvest, only preserved, it is essential to harvest fruits and vegetables at the proper stage and size, as well as when they are at their peak quality. Produce that is immature or over-mature may not last as long in storage as produce that is selected at the correct maturity.
