Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Storage at 13ºC with 95% RH was evaluated as the best condition to maintain the shelf-life of the Banana fruit cv. Grande Naine. Fruit at green stage-1 that were treated with 1% Alum and 1% Benomyl for 10 minutes simultaneously and then vacuum packed in LDPE bag and stored inside cold room of Ecofrost retained a maximum storage life upto 25 to 30 days and the post-storage life was recorded as 2 to 3.5 days. Shelf life was recorded to be 4 to 6 days in ordinary room condition. Chilling injury, decay, crown rot severity and stem rot were noted as zero percentage inside cold room since starting of the experiment.
