Abstract

This study was conducted at the Horticulture Research Centre, Pattharchatta, and the Post-Harvest Laboratory of the Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, from April to May 2021. The experiment utilized a Factorial Completely Randomized Design (FCRD) with two factors and included twelve treatments: Control (T1), Calcium Nitrate at 0.5% (T2), Calcium Nitrate at 1.0% (T3), Putrescine at 100 ppm (T4), Putrescine at 200 ppm (T5), Putrescine at 300 ppm (T6), Calcium Nitrate at 0.5% combined with Putrescine at 100 ppm (T7), 200 ppm (T8), and 300 ppm (T9), and Calcium Nitrate at 1.0% combined with Putrescine at 100 ppm (T10), 200 ppm (T11), and 300 ppm (T12). These treatments were tested across six storage intervals (0, 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 days), with 12 treatment combinations replicated three times. After harvesting, the fruits were stored in a refrigerator for further analysis, during which parameters such as fruit weight, fruit diameter, TSS (total soluble solids) to acid ratio, reducing sugars, and non-reducing sugars were evaluated. Among the treatments, T10 (Calcium Nitrate at 1.0% + Putrescine at 100 ppm) was most effective, followed by T11 (Calcium Nitrate at 1.0% + Putrescine at 200 ppm), in minimizing fruit weight and diameter loss while maintaining the TSS to acid ratio and sugar content throughout the storage period.
