Global study. Optimization of fermentation conditions (like yeast strain, pectinase enzyme, pH and production of mangoes is concentrated temperature) and production of higher alcohols and other volatile compounds during wine mainly in Asia and more precisely in India fermentation were investigated. To prepare wine, the fruits were peeled and juice (must) was that produced 12 million metric tonnes extracted immediately after crushing (control) and also after 10h of pectinase treatment. The cv. ‘Raspuri’ gave the highest juice yield (600 ml/kg) followed by cv. ‘Banganpalli’ (570 ml/kg). The per annum. In India, mango is grown in sugar content of must ranged from 15 to 18% (w/v). The recovered juice was fermented at 15 and 10.85 million hectare and it occupied 20oC and the ethanol concentration of mango wine ranged from 6.3 to 8.5 per cent. Fermentation 39% of total fruit production. More than efficacy of three yeast strains, viz.

More concentration of sugar (16-18%w/v) and volatiles were observed in wine produced from ‘Banganpalli’ cultivar (343 mg/l) than wine from acids with organoleptic properties and also ‘Totapuri’ cultivar (320 mg/l). contains antioxidants like carotene (as Keywords: Mango juice, Pectinase treatment, Wine production, Volatile composition, Sensory Vitamin A, 4,800 IU).

  • Overview of Production & Supply Chain Management in Agro Processing Industry
    ZENITH International Journal of Business Economics & Management Research Vol.2 Issue 2, February 2012, ISSN 2249 8826 Online available at http://zenithresearch.org.in/ OVERVIEW OF PRODUCTION & SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT IN AGRO PROCESSING INDUSTRY (WINE INDUSTRY) J S KADAM*; JAYSHRI J KADAM** *Assistant Professor, I B M R D Ahmednagar, Maharashtra. **Assistant Professor, I B M R D Ahmednagar, Maharashtra. ABSTRACT This paper reviews the recent Indian wine industry in terms of the area, production and marketing of wines in the country. Approximately 38 wineries are presently operating in the country with a total production of 6.2 million liters annually. Maharashtra is leading among the states with 36 wineries and 5.4 million liter production. Apart from this, 72,000 wine cases are imported mainly by ITDC, Sansula, Brindco, E & J Gallo and other private companies. At present 7,62,000 wine cases are sold every year, which includes 46,000 cases of sparkling wines Agro processing is a large sector that covers activities such as agriculture, horticulture, and plantation. It also includes other industries that use agriculture inputs for manufacturing of edible products. Agro processing Industry is one such major player in Agro processing sector. Greater delegation and competitiveness in agro based industries require new forms of co-ordination between farmers and other agencies to increase quantity within catchment area. [2,3]. KEYWORDS: Agro, Agro processing, supply chain Management, production, Wine Grapes. ______________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Historically, grapevine is grown mostly for wine making in the world over. In India on the contrary remarkable success has been achieved in table grape production and yield levels of fresh grapes are among the highest in the world.

The effects of harvest maturity of mangos (Mangifera indica L.) on storage tinder various low-temperature regimes and the influence of storage on quality development during subsequent ripening at higher temperatures were investigated. The capacity for storage of mango fruit depended on harvest maturity, storage temperature, and the time of harvest within the season. Development of peel and pulp color, soluble solids concentration, pH, and softening in ‘Amelie’, ‘Tommy Atkins’, and ‘Keitt’ mangos occurred progressively during storage for up to 21 days at 12C.

  • The 'Tommy Atkins' Mango Genome Reveals Candidate Genes for Fruit
    Bally et al. BMC Plant Biology (2021) 21:108 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12870-021-02858-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The ‘Tommy Atkins’ mango genome reveals candidate genes for fruit quality Mango Genome Consortium, Ian S. E. Bally1, Aureliano Bombarely2,3, Alan H. Chambers4* , Yuval Cohen5, Natalie L. Dillon1, David J. Innes6, María A. Islas-Osuna7, David N. Kuhn8, Lukas A. Mueller9, Ron Ophir5, Aditi Rambani9, Amir Sherman5 and Haidong Yan3 Abstract Background: Mango, Mangifera indica L., an important tropical fruit crop, is grown for its sweet and aromatic fruits. Past improvement of this species has predominantly relied on chance seedlings derived from over 1000 cultivars in the Indian sub-continent with a large variation for fruit size, yield, biotic and abiotic stress resistance, and fruit quality among other traits. Historically, mango has been an orphan crop with very limited molecular information. Only recently have molecular and genomics-based analyses enabled the creation of linkage maps, transcriptomes, and diversity analysis of large collections. Additionally, the combined analysis of genomic and phenotypic information is poised to improve mango breeding efficiency. Results: This study sequenced, de novo assembled, analyzed, and annotated the genome of the monoembryonic mango cultivar ‘Tommy Atkins’. The draft genome sequence was generated using NRGene de-novo Magic on high molecular weight DNA of ‘Tommy Atkins’, supplemented by 10X Genomics long read sequencing to improve the initial assembly. A hybrid population between ‘Tommy Atkins’ x ‘Kensington Pride’ was used to generate phased haplotype chromosomes and a highly resolved phased SNP map. The final ‘Tommy Atkins’ genome assembly was a consensus sequence that included 20 pseudomolecules representing the 20 chromosomes of mango and included ~ 86% of the ~ 439 Mb haploid mango genome.

The experiment was laid out in completely randomized block design with factorial concept with three repetitions. The fruits were exposed to gamma radiation for different doses from the source of 60Co at Board of Radiation and Isotope Technology, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai. There were sixteen treatment combinations of irradiation dose (I1 -0.00, I2 - 0.20, I3 -0.40 and I4 -0.60 kGy) and storage temperature (S1-Ambient, S2-9°C, S3-12°C and S4-CA storage (12°C, O2 2%, CO2 3%).

Preface Tropical fruits are abundant source of nutrients and bio-active compounds that provide numerous health benefits and have been proven in many scientific studies. In today’s fast moving society and ever changing food habit of consumers have led to the development of natural food products to fulfill not only the nutritional needs but also product specifications demanded by consumers. This e-book aims to present the latest research works carried out by researchers worldwide for drying and preservation of tropical fruits ranging from the very common (e.g. mango, pineapple) to the more exotic selections (e.g. ciku, durian, dragon fruit). By converting fresh tropical fruits into dried products via advanced drying/dehydration techniques, this helps to provide an alternative choice of healthy fruit snacks especially to consumers residing outside tropical climate regions.

  • High Density Planting in Mango Cv. Alphonso
    J. Hortl. Sci. Vol. 5 (2): 117-119, 2010 High density planting in mango cv. Alphonso N.V. Dalvi, B.R. Salvi, S.A. Chavan and M.P. Kandalkar Regional Fruit Research Station Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth Vengurle - 416 516, India E–mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT A trial was conducted to optimize spacing for high density planting in mango cv. Alphonso to obtain higher yield/ unit area at the Agriculture Research Station, Mulde, during 2006-07 to 2008-09 with four close spacings and one normal spacing as control. Highest yield (6.4 MT/ha) was recorded with a spacing of 5 m x 5 m without reduction in fruit size in 10 year old plants compared to the mean yield of 1.12 MT/ha in 10m x 10m normal spacing. High density plantation helped to get significantly higher yield per unit area compared to the normal spacing, without affecting size and quality of mango fruits. The highest cost:benefit ratio (2.33) was recorded in high density plantation of 5m x 5m, with maximum net returns of Rs.1,12,000/- per hectare.
