POSTHARVEST HANDLING OF PRODUCE Being living organs, fruits and vegetables continue to respire even after harvesting when they have a limited source of food reserves. In addition to degradation of respiratory substrates, a number of changes in taste, colour, flavour, texture and appearance take place in the harvested commodities which make them unacceptable for

Post harvest losses in fruits and vegetables are very high (20-40%). About 10-15% fresh fruits and vegetables shrivel and decay, lowering their market value and consumer acceptability. Minimizing these losses can increase their supply without bringing additional land under cultivation. Improper handling and storage cause physical damage due to tissue breakdown.

17/04/2021 The post-harvest losses in vegetables are as high as 25.30 percent due to inadequate post-harvest handling, transportation, and storage. Hence, besides increase in productivity, it is also essential to develop suitable post-harvest technology to supply the vegetables as per the recommendation of the nutritional expert to human beings without bringing additional land into vegetable
