PERISHABLE FRUITS PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY THAT GROWTS THE ADDED VALUE TO FARMERS IN POMICULTURE
Journal Title: FRUIT GROWING RESEARCH - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Rising the added value to fruit growing products can be achieved by developing adequate technologies to ensure food security, food safety and to increase farmer income. Many farmers are pursuing the news applications and technologies dedicated to post-harvesting processing of their horticultural products, beginning with most commune instruments and finishing with the most efficient ones. The technology that will be presented in this paper consists of a number of equipment related to each operation, namely: washing, extracting kernels, drying, and packaging. In this technology it is implemented an equipment dedicated to extract the stone fruit kernels with several work stations, and the drying equipment (with or without kernels, in accordance with applied technology). Based on the experimental data done in exploitation conditions, will be made a comparative study for different kind of fruits, and will be drawn conclusions and recommendations regarding the process optimization. This technology was special design to be implement in small farms in order to rise the products added value.
