accordance with enterprise practices should be applied.
Performing harvest and post-harvest activities should be followed in the
right manner how to determine maturity indices dictated by the target
market, harvesting procedure and postharvest activities to produce good
quality and prolonged shelf life which when applied the following right
procedure will result to prolonged shelf life thus, increased income.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
1.1 Knowing or identifying what the market wants is carried out in accordance with enterprise
practice;
1.2 Determining the physiological maturity of vegetables planted is essential to have a prolonged
shelf life;
1.3 Applying other postharvest activities such as: sorting, classifying, grading and even washing;
1.4 Placing in appropriate packaging materials can help prolong the shelf life, using
indigenous/bio-degradable and attractive to the eyes of the buyers.
CRITERIA:

2.2 Knowing what the market wants will dictate what particular physiological
2.3 Determining the physiological maturity of a particular vegetables plays an
important role to have a maximum benefit and prolonged shelf life;

differentiate climacteric vs non-climacteric type of ripening and will also
determine marketability from non-marketability;
2.5 Placing harvested vegetables/fruits in an appropriate containers will
prevent from postharvest losses such mechanical damage, bruises,
contusions that lead to faster deterioration thus shelf life becomes shorter.
