Post Harvest Technology of Horticultural Crops

Synopsis India is renowned for its rich diversity in horticultural crops. Though India ranks first as producer of fruits and second in vegetables in the world, our share in world market is not significant. Therefore strategic measures have to be taken to reduce post harvest losses of agricultural commodities produced in developing countries like India and to boost the processing sector to provide better returns to farmers… Post harvest technology assumes great attention during recent years since preservation of agricultural produce is a basic necessity to sustain agricultural production. It helps to add value of produce, thus having great scope for employment generation at the production catchment. In this book, the authors have attempted to consolidate different methods of post harvest technology of fruits and vegetables focusing on recent advances. This book will benefit both practicing food technologies/post harvest technologists who are searching for answers to critical technical questions, and graduate students who are acquainting themselves with principles of post harvest technology. Further, it will be useful to agricultural engineers, food processors, food scientists, researches and progressive farmers and to those who are working in relevant fields. It is intended to fill a gap in presently available post harvest technology literature.
