Soft cover. Zustand: New. Indias diverse agro-climatic conditions facilitate production of a wide range of horticultural crops. Unfortunately, almost 25-40% of the total fruits and vegetables produced in the country are lost every year solely due to improper postharvest operations. Effective management during the postharvest period, rather than the level of sophistication of any given technology, is the key in reaching the desired objectives. In the recent past, research activities are being undertaken all over the country and world. The major subjects in postharvest technology are postharvest physiology, storage systems, principles and preservation and processing, quality assurance of fruits, vegetables and their products, canning and juice processing, fruit and vegetable fermentation technology, sensory analysis, packaging technology, dehydration technology, waste utilization technology and nutritive value of processed products. The allied fields in postharvest technology are food microbiology, food biochemistry, food chemistry, applied physics, food engineering, horticulture, plant physiology, genetics and plant breeding, computer application, statistics, economics and management and psychology. Postharvest research includes the following objectives: to maintain quality (appearance, texture, flavour and nutritive value), to protect food safety and to reduce losses between harvest and consumption. The subject matter covered in this book is rather wide and has been categorized into 20 chapters. Beginning with a note on the existing scenario various aspects of postharvest technology including maturity indices of various crops, harvesting techniques, pre-harvest factors and their importance, precooling, ethylene in postharvest technology, packing and packing house operations, packaging technology, cushioning materials, storage structures and transportation have been dealt with. In addition, various postharvest disorders, post harvest diseases and pests and their management, food safety practices, handling at destination and markets, handling techniques in fruits, vegetables, cut flowers, spices and fresh cut fruits and vegetables and processing of horticultural crops have also been included to make the book a complete but concise handout on postharvest techniques of horticultural crops. The processing itself includes several techniques such as low temperature preservation, chemical preservation, irradiation, thermal processing, dehydration, ohmic processing and high pressure processing and preservation by fermentation. Thus all the aspects of the recent trends in postharvest management have been dealt in this book in elaborate and appropriate manner.…

"Seed is the best bet of nature against the ravages of time and all other adversities. Man started appreciating the intense and immense potential of seeds long time ago; further he devised technologies to harness the insitu potential of seeds. The role of seed and seed technology in improving the country's food production needs no overemphasis. Today, seeds are celebrated as a basic tool for secured food supply, a carrier of new technologies, so on and so forth. Never the less, the seed industry has grown into a dictator of modern agriculture. This book is designed such that it takes the initiative to sensitize the students to scientific learning of seed science and technology. It contains features to explain, why seed science and technology is an important and practical subject. Each chapter begins with 'goal' statements. This identifies what the student can expect to learn through the chapter. The principles and basics of each topic is dealt at length to provide the students all the facts which will prepare them to appreciate the applications of seed science and technology. Each chapter is enriched with 'activity' section. This guides the students step--by-step, to conduct experiments and learn the intricacies. Sufficient space is provided for incorporation the 'data and observations' after conducting each experiment. Sets of review questions called 'making sure' have been placed as the concluding part of each chapter. These questions provide another means of self-evaluation. In short, this book is tailor-made to eliminate the need for mechanical task of voluminous record writing and drawing and to motivate the student to think and analyse different aspects of science and technology."
