Standardization of Desiccants and Stage of Harvest under Shade Drying Techniques in Gerbera for Value Addition / Manjunath S. Patil in Nepalese Horticulture, v. 8/9 ([07/25/2012])
[article]
Title : Standardization of Desiccants and Stage of Harvest under Shade Drying Techniques in Gerbera for Value Addition Material Type: printed text Authors: Manjunath S. Patil, Author ; A. R. Karale, Author Publication Date: 2012 Article on page: 19-23 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Desiccants, harvesting stage, shade drying, value addition, gerbera. Abstract: The cut flowers are short lived, as they are perishable in nature. Flower drying
offers viable solution to preserve the beauty of cut flowers and extend their
marketability. A study was conducted to investigate appropriate harvesting stage
and desiccant for drying cut flowers of gerbera variety Goliath. Fully opened
flowers or three days before harvesting stage were dried in three desiccants
namely fine river bed sand, silica gel and mixture of sand and silica gel in 1:1
ratio. The desiccants were used as embedding materials of cut flowers in
aluminum boxes. Minimum dry weight (1.17 g/flower) was recorded when silica
gel was used as embedding material, while sand resulted the highest dry weight
(1.27 g/flower). Minimum number of days (5.10) was required to dry the flowers
when silica gel was used as desiccant. Fully opened flowers embedded in silica
gel took the least number of days (5.00) for drying. Silica gel was found superior
for colour retention indicated by highest score (3.93), retention of shape (3.65)
and for retention of shape (3.51).
