Synopsis:

Postharvest supply chain losses of agricultural crops are as high as 40%, particular in developing countries, due to various factors including type of crops, infrastructure, human expertise and the way these are handled from harvest to retail. Extending shelf life and value addition of the already produced crops offers opportunities to reduce postharvest losses and increase food availability as well as increase returns to growers. There have been significant advancements made in processing technology in different regions of the world, and this book is aimed at providing the most updated scientific knowledge and best practices in processing and value addition of different horticultural crops.
