Book Synopsis Quality of Horticultural Crops: A Recurrent/New Challenge for Plant Scientists in a Changing World by : Nadia Bertin
Download or read book Quality of Horticultural Crops: A Recurrent/New Challenge for Plant Scientists in a Changing World written by Nadia Bertin and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Besides increasing crop yield to feed the growing population, improving crop quality is a challenging and key issue. Indeed, quality determines consumer acceptability and increases the attractivity of fresh and processed products. In this respect, fruit and vegetables, which represent a main source of vitamins and other health compounds, play a major role in human diet. This is the case in developing countries where populations are prone to nutritional deficiencies, but this is also a pending issue worldwide, where the growing middle class is increasingly aware and in search of healthy food. So a future challenge for the global horticultural industry will be to answer the demand for better quality food in a changing environment, where many resources will be limited. This e-collection collates state-of-the-art research on the quality of horticultural crops, covering the underlying physiological processes, the genetic and environmental controls during plant and organ development and the postharvest evolution of quality during storage and processing.

This book was released on 2023-02-01 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication explores how Viet Nam can improve the safety of its fruit and vegetables, including through production and postharvest handling, value chain development, and a stronger food safety management system. It notes that building confidence in safe fruit and vegetables would encourage consumers to eat more of them, boosting people’s health and producers’ livelihoods. The publication draws on the results of safety tests, a stakeholder survey, and a literature review. Its recommendations include expanding producers’ cooperatives and designated safe vegetable production areas, using incentives and controls to drive down chemical pesticide misuse, and publishing the results of regular testing.
Book Synopsis The State of Food Loss Along Perishable Vegetable Supply Chains by : Jocelyn Marie Boiteau
Download or read book The State of Food Loss Along Perishable Vegetable Supply Chains written by Jocelyn Marie Boiteau and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research was done in the context of tomato supply chains in Chittoor District, Andhra Pradesh and Hyderabad city, Telangana. The study aims were (1) to examine the extent, stages and determinants of food loss along tomato supply chains from farmer to retail; (2) to identify important quality attributes across supply chain actors and the relationships between quality metrics, both subjective and objective; and (3) to critically compare institutional food loss and waste (FL&W) definitional frameworks used with a collective smallholder vegetable farmer definitional framework. Food loss surveys of were carried out across 75 smallholder farm households, 83 tomato traders, 52 vegetable traders and 50 vegetable retailers from February 2019 to March 2020. Data on tomato production and harvest (at the farm level), post-harvest and marketing, tomato quality, food loss, food quality loss, and demographics were collected. Tomato ascorbic acid concentrations were measured from tomatoes collected at harvest and wholesale market stages, for comparison with survey food quality data. Pile sort group discussions and focus group discussions with farmers contributed valuable insights into farmer decision-making processes with regard to production, harvest, post-harvest and marketing of tomatoes and other perishable vegetables. Food loss was concentrated at the farmer stage, specifically at the farm-level. Greater post-harvest, farm-level loss was significantly associated with greater pre-harvest quality loss. Harvests during peak harvest season were significantly associated with lower pre-harvest quality loss, post-harvest loss and market-level, pre-auction loss. With regard to quality, farmers make harvesting decisions based on the color/ripeness level of tomatoes. Post-harvest, tomato size and evidence of pest or physical damage become important quality indicators during grading and sorting. All other supply chain actors consider several observable quality attributes to assess tomato quality. Market grades have distinguished quality intensities within and between supply chain actors. The ascorbic acid concentration of tomatoes, a marker of nutrient quality, was significantly associated with quality intensity and tomato ripeness levels. Finally, three major gaps were identified where institutional FL&W definitional frameworks do not align with smallholder farmer frameworks. Some institutional frameworks do not count animal feed as a loss destination, they exclude the pre-harvest stage when produce is market ready from loss estimates, and they do not measure food quality loss. Taken together, findings from this research demonstrate that farm-level supply chain stages, from pre-harvest to post-harvest, are critical points where food loss of tomatoes occurs. Food loss and waste definitional frameworks are the backbone of measurement frameworks. Institutional food loss and waste frameworks that influence global, national and subnational policies should consider the overarching food loss and waste measurement and reduction objectives in the context of specific food groups and supply chain contexts.

Book Synopsis Preparing Vietnam for new rules on international market by : Pham, T.T.
Download or read book Preparing Vietnam for new rules on international market written by Pham, T.T. and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2020-03-11 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deforestation-free production will be a requirement of the global market from now through 2030. More than 1,000 financial institutions (e.g. banks, trusts, donors) and 600 multinational companies have pledged to produce and supply zero-deforestation agricultural products, and these establishments (financial institutions and multinational companies) are developing a process of testing, screening and certification for service providers and countries that produce or export agroforestry products. The governments of European countries, the Americas and Australia are also aggressively building a legal framework to monitor and verify that imported goods have not resulted in deforestation or forest degradation.In Vietnam, 92 domestic and foreign companies from 21 fields and industries have signed commitments to achieve zero deforestation by 2020. These industries include: fashion (apparel and footwear); agriculture; cosmetics and personal care; food and agriculture; retail chains; home construction (furniture and flooring, and renovation supplies); consumer goods; paper and packaging; printing and publishing; and automotive industry (rubber, automobile manufacturing). These companies contribute greatly to the national GDP and local economic development, and are major buyers of agricultural products including coffee, wood, soybeans and poultry.However, businesses in Vietnam are not prepared to adapt the supply chain of agroforestry products to this trend; they require knowledge and skills to face the new market requirements. Without further research and long-term planning, Vietnam's agroforestry products industry is at risk of losing market share to fierce international competition, leading to enormous economic losses for the country.The government needs to develop a legal framework to support and monitor companies that meet deforestation-free commitments, while building the capacity of stakeholders to respond to the requirements of new markets, in order to ensure a solid position for agroforestry products and their sustainable contribution to the national economy over the next 30 years.
