Fruit shoulders are in line with stem end and the color is dark green • Pulp color is almost white and TSS is less than 4 Mature Stage 2. Shoulders outgrow the stem-end and color is dark to light green • Pulp color yellow and TSS is 5-5.5 Perfect Maturity For Harvest Stage 3. Shoulders outgrow stem-end and color becomes light green to pale green • Pulp color yellow to light orange and TSS is 6-6.5 Almost Tree Ripen Stage 4. Internal pulp soft and orange in color • TSS is 12-14 When, with what and how to Harvest • Stop irrigation before 7-12 days. • Collect ringed sharp blade netted poles, stands, plastic bins • Harvest at cooler parts of day • Stop harvesting If rain or high humidity upto 85% • Harvest with sharp blade netted poles with 3-5 cm stem intact • Harvest with hands near the ground ones • Doping may cause bruising, skin damage or whole fruit may rupture apart • Fallen fruits should be treated separately • Harvested fruits should be kept in shade and tirred in crates to avoid sap interaction • Wait for 2 hours to transport • Wash the crates daily Pack House • Transport harvested fruits as soon as possible • Crates should be used • Rood should be smooth • Vehicle should be driven slowly and smoothly • Top layer should be covered • Crates will help in loading, unloading Desapping • Sap Burn Injury • Poor appearance of fruit • Low price • Rotting starts from here • Microbial infestation area • Process • Fruits harvested with 3-5 cm attached pedicles • Pedicles are cut at first node and hold fruit upside down • Desap for 1-2 min. in slaked lime solution (0.5%) • Rinse for 1-2 min. in tap water to remove residues • Till today desapping is done manually Cleaning • Cleaning / washing of mango fruit is carried out to make fruit practically free from dust, dirt, latex or any other foreign material. For export fruits are usually dipped in hot water (50-54oC)containing fungicide (benomyl) for the control of fungal diseases. • The treatment is not appropriate for small-scale operations. Vapour HeatTreatment (VHT) of mangoes at 46oC for10 min helps in reduction of incidence of anthracnose & stem end rot. Sorting and Grading • Sorting & Grading of mango fruit under Indian condition is generally done manually wherein the workers sit close to piled mango heap and sort damaged, diseased and rotten fruits by hand. These operation can also be done mechanically, fruits are conveyed through a conveyor belt and workers standing on both sides of the conveyor pick up the undesirable produce . • There are some sophisticated technologies available for sorting and grading. • It is possible to mechanically sort and grade fruit on the basis of their colour, size, degree of sweetness and firmness etc. • These are non destructive methods in which sensors are used to do so (Plate 1) without any biasness. • Weight graders are also available wherein containers containing a particular range of weight invert into a specific section (Plate 2) • Standardized grading has become imperative for better economic returns in global market. • Bigger size fruits take 2-4 days more time in ripening than smaller ones. Hence, packaging of smaller fruits with larger ones should be avoided to achieve uniform ripening. • Immature, overripe, damaged and diseased fruits should be discarded.

  • Physico-Chemical Attributes and Heavy Metal Content of Mangoes (Mangifera Indica L.) Cultivated in Different Regions of Pakistan
    Pak. J. Bot., 42(4): 2691-2702, 2010. PHYSICO-CHEMICAL ATTRIBUTES AND HEAVY METAL CONTENT OF MANGOES (MANGIFERA INDICA L.) CULTIVATED IN DIFFERENT REGIONS OF PAKISTAN SAEED AKHTAR1*, SAFINA NAZ1 , M.TUSEEF SULTAN1 , SEEMA MAHMOOD2, 3 4 MUHAMMAD NASIR AND ANWAAR AHMAD 1Department of Food and Horticultural Sciences, Bahauddin Zakariya University Multan, Pakistan 2Institute of Pure and Applied Biology, Bahauddin Zakariya University Multan, Pakistan 3Department of Animal Products Technology, University of Veterinary & Animal Sciences, Lahore, Pakistan Department of Food Technology, University of Arid Agriculture, Rawalpindi, Pakistan Abstract The present study was carried out to evaluate the physico-chemical attributes and heavy metal content of 4 popular mango (Mangifera indica L.) varieties viz., Dusahri, Chaunsa, Ratol and Langra grown in Multan (MUL), Rahim Yar Khan (RYK) and Mir Pur Khas (MPK), three major districts of Pakistan. Ash content, total soluble solid (TSS), pH and titratable acidity significantly (p<0.0.5) varied among these varieties. Langra, collected from MUL showed the highest ash % with relatively lower pH and TSS. The results indicated a substantial build-up of macro (Na, K, Ca, P) and micro (Fe, Zn, Ni, Cr, Cd, and Pb) elements in the selected mango varieties. Mango varieties collected from MUL showed a higher concentration of these metals as compared to other regions which may be attributed to irrigation from industrial effluents and sewage water. This study concludes that the levels of heavy metals in tested Pakistani mango varieties are higher than the safe limits laid down by World Health Organization (WHO) and need regular monitoring both at the farm and the table.

  • Changes in the Sensory Characteristics of Mango Cultivars During the Production of Mango Purée and Sorbet
    DIFFERENCES IN SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS AMONG VARIOUS MANGO CULTIVARS IN THE FORM OF FRESH SLICED MANGO, MANGO PURÉE, AND MANGO SORBET by CHRISTIE N. LEDEKER B.S., University of Delaware, 2008 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Interdisciplinary Food Science Graduate Program Department of Human Nutrition KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2011 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Delores H. Chambers Abstract Fresh mangoes are highly perishable, and therefore, they are often processed to extend shelf-life and facilitate exportation. Studying the transformation that mango cultivars undergo throughout processing can aid in selecting appropriate varieties for products. In the 1st part of this study, the flavor and texture properties of 4 mango cultivars available in the United States (U.S.) were analyzed. Highly trained descriptive panelists in the U.S. evaluated fresh, purée, and sorbet samples prepared from each cultivar. Purées were made by pulverizing mango flesh, passing it through a china cap, and heating it to 85 °C for 15 s. For the sorbets, purées were diluted with water (1:1), sucrose was added, and the bases were frozen in a batch ice cream freezer. Much of the texture variation among cultivars was lost after fresh samples were transformed into purées, whereas much of the flavor and texture variation among cultivars was lost once fresh mangoes and mango purées were transformed into sorbets. Compared to the other cultivars, Haden and Tommy Atkins underwent greater transformations in flavor throughout sorbet preparation, and processing reduced the intensities of some unpleasant flavors in these cultivars.

Sensory evaluation of mango (Chanunsa) pulp preserved with addition of selected chemical preservatives and antioxidant during storage. Sarhad J. Agric. 27(3): 471-475 INTRODUCTION Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is popular and economically important tropical fruit throughout the world, due to its excellent eating quality (bright colour, sweet taste and luscious flavour) and nutritional composition (vitamins, minerals, fiber and other phytochemical compounds). It is popularly known as ‘The King of Fruits’ (Gerbaud, 2008). According to Agriculture statistics of Pakistan (2008-09) total area under mango cultivation in Pakistan was 170.1 (0000 hectares) with 1727.9 (000 tones) of production. Substantial quantities of mangoes are wasted because of poor post-harvest management and lack of appropriate facilities in developing countries.
