The use of treated wastewater and fertigation in greenhouse pepper crop as affecting growth and fruit quality
The performance and suitability of tertiary treated wastewater (TW) and/or fertigation (F) in pepper plants were studied over a 4-month period in greenhouse conditions. Four treatments were used consisting of (1) water, (2) water + F, (3) TW, and (4) TW + F. The F and/or TW application increased plant height and plant biomass compared with the control plants (irrigated with water) ...

Characteristics of postharvest quality in regional fruits treated with ionising radiation
Quality postharvest of three cultivated species of the Northeast Region of Brazil was evaluated after receiving ionising radiation. Cashew peduncles (Anacardium occidentale L. var. Nanum) stored for 14 days under 6.5°C had presented best results in the sensorial analyses for external appearance, flavour and aroma when irradiated with 1 kGy. Sapodillas (Manilkara sapodilla (L) Van Roy en) ...

Palm Kernel Processing Plant
Palm kernel oil (PKO) is has very similar compositions and properties as coconut oil. It is a kind of co-product of palm oil production. With the fast growth of palm oil, palm kernel oil will replace coconut oil as the main resource of lauric acid. Palm Fruit Oil Vs Palm Kernel Oil The chemical properties and physical properties of these two oils are very different. They also have different ...

Influence of aqueous 1–methylcyclopropene on postharvest ripening and quality of banana
The influence of aqueous 1–methylcyclopropene (1–MCP) on the ripening of harvested banana fruit cv. 'Cavendish' was investigated. Banana fruit at mature green stage were dipped in aqueous 1–MCP at 100, 200, 400 and 600 µg L−1 for 10 min, fan–forced air–dried and then stored at 20 ± 2°C and 85–90% RH for ripening over 30 days. Banana ripening was delayed when dipped in 100–600 µg L−1, however; ...

NIR Vs. Penetrometer to judge produce quality
Though firmness has been popularly used to assess the quality of fruit, fruit dry matter is now increasingly being used instead. It is necessary to understand both traits to find the reason behind this shift in preference. Dry Matter When water is removed from produce, what is left are the solids, or the dry matter. The dry matter (DM) of plants is made up of many soluble compounds, called the ...
