Post Harvest Management in Africa Issues/OpportunitiesPaul Sommers
Growers struggle to produce crops only to have additional losses after they mature. An excessive amount of food loss happens on the farm. Crop losses at household level can range between 30% for grains to 40-50% for root crops, fresh fruits and vegetables, due to insufficient post-harvest practices. Both quantity (weight loss) and quality losses (appearance, taste, texture, and nutritional or economic value) vary in magnitude and occur at all stages in the pre and post-harvest system from harvesting through handling, storage, processing and marketing. Every gram of food saved at household level from post-harvest losses translates into food available for family consumption or sale. Therefore, reducing losses before, during and after harvest can significantly contribute to food security, nutrition, and health.
Both pre and post harvest management of some vegetable crops & important related issues have been described in this presentation. Different pre and post harvest management techniques were followed to obtain high quality vegetable seed. The benefits of growing indigenous vegetables have also been described in this presentation. #suggested links of my you tube video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6pUFVWX6hw&t=3s and another video link :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV1yX347jeA

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Why Post Harvest Care for Fruits Vegs
1.
2. Introduction
Quality & Shelf Life Disease Quality
Need for Cooling
Why Air Circulation
Shelf Life
Problems Associated
Moisture Loss
Cooling
Compatibility
Hygiene
Hazard Analysis
Action Needed! Hygiene
Compatibility
3. All living tissues • Oxidizing various components to provide
respire: energy to continue life.
Fruit & Vegetables are • Continue to live even in absence of
living tissues: nutrient transfer.
F&V have a delicate • Flavors, colors, nutritional components,
balance: etc. A slight change makes a difference.
Not all are created • Yet most Fruits & Vegetables are 90-95%
equal: water.
Ultimately all F&V die: • And become unusable or unmarketable.
4. The Quality of any Fresh produce is at its PEAK when it is harvested.
Deterioration sets due to natural processes, water loss, temperature
or physical injury, or microbial invasions.
All of these factors interact and all are influenced by temperature.
Cooling is required to slow down metabolic processes, both within
and without the produce.
5. The longer Fruits & Vegetables stay in uncontrolled ambient,
the quality and useful SHELF LIFE is lost.
Shelf life begins at harvest.
Rapid post harvest cooling is required to minimise
respiratory rates and also to inhibit growth of decaying
micro-organisms on the produce.
6. Cooling is necessary to remove post harvest field heat & also to
continually remove the respiratory heat of the produce. Also
inhibits external micro-biological processes.
Cooling is carried out by employing methods such as Hydro-
Cooling, Vacuum Cooling, Icing, Room Cooling or Forced Air
Cooling. Room air cooling is also employed for long term storage.
7. Physiological respiratory processes of fresh produce continues after
harvesting. This requires oxygen (O2) and in turn generates heat and
releases carbon dioxide (CO2) and ethylene.
High concentrations of CO2 & Ethylene degrades or kills the produce.
These gases must be replenished with Fresh Air employing a
ventilation system.
Efficient air circulation enhances cooling & removes trapped pockets
of gaseous by-products.
8. • Cooling requires energy and tends to invite
Tainting: compartment sharing and other shortcuts.
• Cooling effects external environment and
Moisture Loss: changes ambient conditions.
• Cooling creates condensate which encourages
Disease: disease and rots.
• Cooling is ineffective if the medium spread is
Stowage: in-correct.
Control: • Cooling causes chill injuries and even death.
9. Products stored in common spaces
must be compatible for shared
storing temperatures, moisture
levels (RH), volatility (ethylene),
odour (tainting), etc.
Cross contamination through
incompatible product mix can lead
to an un-saleable produce.
Cross-transfer of odours and/or
stimulated maturing leading to
subsequent decay is to be avoided.
10. Fresh horticultural commodities are unique packages of
water! In fact Freshness Sells and freshness is water!
Water loss is one main cause of loss of quality &
marketability of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Low Humidity levels are inherent to poorly designed
refrigerated spaces.
11. With inefficient packaging and storing, the cooling medium
(air or water) does not spread contact with the produce
leading to cooling inefficiencies & product damage.
Shoulder Vents allow
vertical air flow
Panel Vents allow
horizontal air flow
Packaging must Protect, easy on FIFO, tolerate & allow
preferred Cooling method, enhance Space Utilisation and
have Sales Appeal.
Some packaging can simulate CA conditions.
12. Safe sanitation, hygienic conditions and abidance
with laws of food regulatory authorities is a must.
Prudent care is applied to keep the fresh produce
clean dirt, insect & microorganism infestation.
All water used to be pre-treated.
Anti fungal treatments are regularly applied.
Between subsequent uses, the cold room space
sanitisaton is required.
To identify and apply controls, HACCP (Hazard
Analysis and Critical Control Points) procedures
are useful.
Regular internal quality audits, checks and
training is a must.
13. Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points- example Harvest of eggplant
Hand harvest eliminating defective fruit, place into
clean carrier trays, baskets, crates.
Clean, Spray wash or wipe with clean moist cloth
Sort, Grade & classify by size, maturity and defects
14. Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points- example Harvest of eggplant
Pack by weight or count into crates.
Palletize and transport to Cooler.
Rapid Cool to 7 to 13 °C. Monitor cooling.
Move and Store at distribution centre
15. Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points
Field Worker Hygiene
Farm Equipment Sanitation
Water Sanitation
Crate Sanitation
Temperature Control and Cold
Store Sanitation
Transport Sanitation
16. Understand that fresh fruits and vegetables live and
breath! They need to be:-
treated with care.
provided fresh air to breathe.
kept clear from exposure to disease.
protected from dehydration to stay fresh.
Shelf life of F&V can be extended by reducing the
ambient temperatures they are exposed to.
Avoid unnecessary handling & prevent body injuries.
Keep F&V storage areas neat and clean.
Identify likely critical hazard areas & apply controls.
