DESCRIPTION
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 catchments.
