Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of a Candelilla Wax-Based Edible Coating to Prolong the Shelf-Life Quality and Safety of ApplesEmilio Ochoa, Saúl Saucedo-Pompa, Romeo Rojas-Molina et al.Abstract: Problem statement: The apple by its nature as perishable food of climacteric type implies that even under refrigerated conditions, the fruit spoils quickly by its very nature of breathing and similarly are attacked by microorganisms of different types that make is the fruit spoil even faster so in the present investigation be worked with an edible coating to protect … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 10,885 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Postharvest Treatment Reduces Ascorbic Acid Losses in Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Var. KentMaria A. Islas-Osuna, Norma A. Stephens-Camacho, Carmen A. Contreras-Vergara et al.Problem statement: Mango is a tropical fruit that ripens very quickly; for this reason, there has been a continuous effort to develop postharvest technologies to extend its shelf life and quality. Among them, 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) is widely used because it inhibits the action of ethylene receptors. Approach: Changes in physicochemical parameters, bioactive compounds and cell wall degrading activities were evaluated … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 9,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Practices of Contract Farming Among Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Suppliers in MalaysiaNorsida Man, Nolila Mohd NawiProblem statement: Contract Farming (CF) concept is an agreement between buyers and producers, where by producers agree to produce and supply agriculture products according to the agreed quantity, quality, variety, grade, type of packaging and time of delivery. The two parties will mutually agree on the pricing of product, either on a contract price or a market price. Therefore, CF … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 9,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Impact Level and Fruit Properties on Golden Delicious Apple BruisingArzhang Javadi, Ebrahim Ahmadi, Mohammad Hossein Abbaspour-Fard et al.Problem Statement: Bruise damage is a major cause of fruit quality loss. Bruises occur under dynamic and static loading when stress induced in the fruit exceeds the failure stress of the fruit tissue. Statistical bruise estimation models were constructed to calculate Golden Delicious apple bruise volume with respect to fruit properties. Approach: The regression models were built based upon impact … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,259 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrganic Alternative for Breaking Dormancy in Table Grapes Grown in Hot RegionsConsuelo Corrales-Maldonado, Miguel Angel Martinez-Tellez, Alfonso A. Gardea et al.Problem statement: In warm-winter regions, the need for intervention of chemical means to break bud rest becomes a dominant factor for maintaining economic production of table grapes. However, the problem is more acute when farmers want to grow organic table grapes in the absence of environmentally-friendly budbreak promoters. Approach: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a mix of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,753 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Back Propagation Neural Networks for Grading Jatropha curcas Fruits MaturityZ. Effendi, R. Ramli, J. A. GhaniProblem statement: Jatropha curcas has the potential to become one of the world’s key energy crops. Crude vegetable oil, extracted from the seeds of the Jatropha plant, can be refined into high quality biodiesel. Traditional identification of Jatropha curcas fruits is performed by human experts. The Jatropha curcas fruit quality depends on type and size of defects as well as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Different Concentrations and Applications of Calcium on Storage Life and Physicochemical Characteristics of Papaya (Carica Papaya L.)T.M.M. Mahmud, A. Al Eryani-Raqeeb, S.R. Syed Omar et al.Papaya (Carica Papaya L.) fruits index 2 were treated with 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5% solutions of calcium chloride by dipping and vacuum infiltration (-33 Kpa) or untreated (0%) as control. Effects of these treatments were evaluated on storage life and postharvest quality characteristics of papaya. After 21 days of storage at 13±1°C, the fruits were removed from storage for physicochemical … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 9,652 accessesView PDFCite
