Study on Post Harvest Shelf Life of Fresh Chilli and Drying .Structure Improvement for Red Ripe Chilli / Ram Bahadur KC ; Moha Datta Sharma
in Proceedings of the fifth National Seminar on Horticulture June 9-10, 2008 / Nepal Agricultural Research Council (NARC) (Khumaltar, Lalitpur, Nepal)
Title : Study on Post Harvest Shelf Life of Fresh Chilli and Drying .Structure Improvement for Red Ripe Chilli Material Type: printed text Authors: Ram Bahadur KC, Author ; Moha Datta Sharma, Author Pagination: 292-295 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Chilli, drying, red ripe, shelf life, weight loss Abstract: Two post harvest studies were carried ·out on chill~ at Regional Agricultural Research
Station, Khajura during winter season 2006 to know the shelf life and identify
appropriate structure of drying for red ripe chilli. In shelf life study higher percent
weight toss trend (16.56, 30.31, 44.98 and 70.96) was observed in cultivar Pusa
Jwala followed by NS 1701 (13.96, 23.08, 33.78, 49.40 & 62.29) after every three
days of interval while the lowest percent weight loss trend was recorded in cultivar
Khairapur Mota (12.86, 20.78, 32.47, 46.66 & 59.12). Cultivar Pusa Jwala reached
early in un-marketable stage by shrinkage and blackish peduncle within 12 days
where as other two cultivar NS 1701 and Khairapur Mota had relatively long shelf life
15 and 18 days, respectively. Significantly higher percent weight loss (37.42, 59.34 &
76.33) was recorded in structure with black cotton sheeted Nang/a covered by
transparent thin poly sheet within nine days. Same level of weight loss was recorded
in black sheeted Nang/a and Nang/a as such after 12 days only. Result indicated that
the maximum shelf life was noted in cultivar Khairapur Mota followed by NS 1701
under ambient room condition. Black cotton sheeted Nang/a covered by transparent
thin polyethylene sheet structure was found the most effective for rapid drying of red
ripe chilli.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=263 Study on Post Harvest Shelf Life of Fresh Chilli and Drying .Structure Improvement for Red Ripe Chilli [printed text] / Ram Bahadur KC, Author ; Moha Datta Sharma, Author . - [s.d.] . - 292-295 p.

Title : Effect of Harvesting Method and Calcium on Post Harvest Physiology of Tomato Material Type: printed text Authors: Bhattarai, D.R., Author ; Durga M. Gautam, Author Publication Date: 2006 Article on page: 37-41 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Calcium chloride, physiological weight loss, shell life, tomato Abstract: An experiment was conducted in Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science, Rampur, Chitwan
during 2003 to find out the effect of harvesting method and calcium chloride treatment on postharvest
physiology of tomato. Tomato (Hybrid Gootya) fruits with stalk and without stalk were
harvested at breaker stage and dipped in distilled water and different concentrations of calcium
chloride viz. 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% and 1% for fifteen minutes. Fruit were then air-dried and
stored at ambient condition (24 ± 30 C and 70 ± 5 % RH). Among the tested treatments the least
cumulative physiological weight loss (12.14%) was exhibited by 1% calcium chloride. The shelf
life of tomato fruits was significantly affected by harvesting method and calcium treatment.
Tomato fruit harvested with stalk had higher shelf-life (15 days) as compared to those harvested
without stalk (12.93 days) irrespective to calcium chloride application. The maximum shelf life
was noticed in 1% calcium chloride treated fruits (16.50 days) followed by 0.75% calcium
chloride treated fruits (16.17 days).Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=44
