COLD CHAIN PRINCIPLE
IF PERISHABLE FOODS ARE HELD AND
MOVED FROM PLACE TO PLACE UNDER
CONTROLLED LOW TEMPERATURES AND
OPTIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY, THEY CAN
BE KEPT IN NEAR HARVESTED
CONDITIONS FOR A CERTAIN TIME WITHIN
WHICH THEY CAN BE FULLY USED FOR
PROCESSING / DIRECT CONSUMPTION.
Indian Scenario.
The post harvest losses in India are as high as 60% and reducing those losses is very
important to ensure that sufficient food both in quantity and in quality is available to
every resident in the country. Reduction of post-harvest losses reduces cost of
production, trade and distribution, lowers the price for the consumer and increases the
farmer’s income as well.
Worldwide post harvest fruit and vegetables losses are as high as 30 to 40% and even
much higher in some developing countries. Reducing post harvest losses is very
important; ensuring that sufficient food, both in quantity and in quality is available to
every inhabitant in our planet. The prospects are also that the world population will
grown from 5.7 billion inhabitants in 1995 to 8.3 billion in 2025. World production of
vegetables amounted to 486 million ton, while that of fruits reached 392 million ton.
Reduction of post-harvest losses reduces cost of production, trade and distribution,
lowers the price for the consumer and increases the farmer’s income.
Proper post harvest processing and handling is an important part of modern
agricultural production. Post harvest processes include the integr ated fun ctio ns of
harvestin g, cl eanin g, gra ding, coolin g, stori ng, packag in g, tra nsportin g
and ma rke ting. The technology of post harvest handling bridges the gap between the
producer and the consumer. Post harvest handling involves the practical application of
engineering principles and knowledge of fruit and vegetable physiology to solve
problems.

farmer’s income as well.
Many factors contribute to post harvest losses in fresh fruits and vegetables. These include environmental conditions such as heat or drought, mechanical damage during harvesting and handling, improper post harvest sanitation and poor coo ling and environ mental contro l.
Temperature is the most influential factor on the rate of deterioration in the quality of produce. High temperatures accelerate ripening and the speed at which rots develop. A 100C increase in temperature will cause fruits and vegetables to deteriorate twice fast and encouraging disease organisms to grow as fast as well. This is why it is important to remove field heat from the produce as quickly as possible after harvest.

◦ Holding period 16-12 hrs( total 24 hours from start of ethylene
injection) temperature held at 18 or 19 deg.C and 90% RH
◦ Ventilation after 24 hrs after ethylene injection. Ethylene and
carbondioxide is expelled out and fresh air is injected in cold room.
◦ Holding period for 3-4 days till [Link] can be reduced
gradually to 16 deg.C for enhancing the shelf life of the banana
