  1. Primary Processing and Value Addition of Horticultural Crops Dr. R. T. Patil Ex-Director CIPHET & Chairman Benevole Welfare Society for Post Harvest Technology, Bhopal (MP)

  2. Production & Post Harvest Scenario Agriculture contributes about 15% of GDP, employs 57 % workforce and sustains approx over 65 % of the population India produces about 265+million tons of food grains and more than 280+million tons of fruits and vegetables and ranks second in world Low level of processing of fruits and vegetables and hence losses range from 6 - 18 %. Food processing is employment intensive, creates 1.8 jobs directly and 6.4 indirectly for every Rs. 10 lakh investment

  3. Value Addition due to Processing Tomatoes -Rs. 10/kg Tomato ketchup-Rs 150/kg Fruit- Rs. 15-20/kg Fruits Bar-Rs. 200/kg Fruit Juice- Rs. 85/litre Jam –Rs 200/kg Fruit Chat - Rs. 250/kg Coriander -Rs. 80/kg Coriander Powder-Rs. 200/kg Turmeric-Rs.65/kg Turmeric Powder –Rs. 200/kg Chili- Rs. 200/kg Chili Powder-Rs. 300/kg Black pepper-Rs. 100/kg B Pepper Powder- Rs.300/kg Vegetables-Rs. 10-20/kg Minimal Processed/Ready to Cook - Rs. 100/kg Onion Rs. 3-10/kg Dehydrated Onion-Rs. 200/kg

  4. Agro Processing in Production Catchment • Can provide processed food of highest quality at affordable cost to consumers • Help environment by processing food in production catchment with least food miles • Ensure traceability of raw materials used for processed product hence great for export and elite urban market. • Help effective backward linkage with farmers for processing their raw produce • Shorten the supply chain, increase the profitability of farmers and ultimately increase in GDP from agriculture and reduce poverty • Reduce post harvest losses and increased availability of by products for further processing.

  5. Harvesting at Proper Maturity • Safe Harvesting • Sorting/Grading • Pre cooling and Washing • Cool/Cold Storage • Safe Handling/Packaging • Safe Transport • Value Addition Unit Operations in Post Harvest Management

  6. Harvesting at Maturity - Maturity of Mango in Tree  • Eating quality and postharvest shelf life of ripe mango depends on its maturity at harvest • Change of peel color and total soluble solids (TSS) are indicative parameters to measure maturity of mango. • A maturity index was defined based on TSS and colour values. • The model was developed to predict maturity using colourimeter • Colour and maturity index chart were also developed to determine maturity • This technique can be employed to sort the mangoes at export port, big mandies and in processing plant. Capacity About 100 mangoes per hour

  7. Safe Harvesting Tools Strawberry Clipper

  8. Fruit Saving Gadgets After plucking from tree, fruit is thrown in the trough of fruit saver and collected in a box/container. The fruits are graded on size basis at appropriate places. Smallest grade fruit is collected first and largest grade is collected in last

  9. Banana-Comb (Hand) Cutter It is an useful to de-stem the comb from the banana bunch. It replaces the use of sickle, which was much labor and time consuming. It is safe for human and banana hands and can be used for faster work. 100 to 120 banana bunches can be de-handed per hour. Saves 10 to 15 banana-fingers per bunch (i. e. 2 to 8 % reduction in cutting losses of banana fruits)

  10. CIPHET Tomato Grader • The tomatoes roll down the pipes due to gravity and fall immediately wherever they find the space of their diameter. • Grades 3: 25-40 mm, 40-55 mm, 55-70 mm and > 70 mm • The collector is inclined at 10° so that the tomatoes slide directly in crates. • The important feature of grader is its ability to adjust the gap between the pipes and inclination of grading table and hopper. • It can also be used for other round fruits and vegetables. Capacity: of 325 kg/hr Overall grading efficiency: 66%. Cost: Rs.25000.00

  11. Washing of Fruits & Vegetables

  12. Pre cooling Pre Cooling is provided to fruits and vegetables before long term cold storage. Helps in increasing the efficiency and functional life of the products during long term cold storage. Increases shelf-life of produce/commodity In compliance with international quality standards Cost-effective

  13. Evaporatively Cooled Room for Storage of Fruits and Vegetables • An evaporatively cooled (EC) room (3x3x3m. size) was developed for on-farm storage of fruits and vegetables. • The summer temperature inside the EC room was 5-8C lower than that inside the ordinary room and winter temperature was 5-8 C higher than that inside the ordinary room. Compared on the basis of 10% physiological loss in weight (PLW) the shelf life inside the room was 34 days for early kinnow, 23 days for late kinnow, 11 days for cauliflower and 4 days for spinach as compared to 21, 11, 5 and 2 days respectively in an ordinary room at the same time. The cost of the chamber is Rs. 75000 and capacity is 2 tonnes.

  14. Evaporative Cooled Storage Structure • Storage of fruits and vegetables • Evaporatively Cooled Structure (ECS) maintains a moderate low temperature and sufficiently high relative humidity for short term storage of fresh fruits and vegetables. • Advantages • Low level consumption of electricity • Less initial investment • Negligible maintenance cost • Features • Special design of roof, orientation • Uses wetted pad as cooling medium • 20oC below the outside temperature • An ECS of about 5 -7 tonne storage capacity may cost about Rs. 1.5 – 1.8 lakh.
