Ways to preserve agriculture products after harvest with export standards

Recently, the online retail and export of fruits and vegetables is increasingly expanding in scale.

In particular, after many types of Vietnamese fruits and vegetables were exported abroad, businesses have focused more on investing in packaging and preserving agricultural products to limit post-harvest losses.

Currently, our country has imported and is applying many of the most advanced post-harvest agriculture preservation technologies in the world to reduce the damage of vegetables and fruits to the lowest level during storage, retail display and long-distance export.

Below are post-harvest preservation technologies , let’s learn with Sancopack . 

Preserving Agriculture Products Using Cold Storage Method

The refrigeration method is considered a traditional form of preservation for agricultural growers. This is a method that uses temperature to preserve, which can be understood as a form of inhibiting the ripening process of agricultural products.

This helps agricultural products last longer and limits spoilage during transportation.

Post-harvest preservation techniques will depend on the type of agriculture product, but most fruits are preserved at temperatures from -10 degrees Celsius to -30 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, all bacteria and microorganisms will be completely destroyed.

However, this method still has some limitations such as: the cost of preservation is quite high and requires a specialized operating team.

In addition, storing fresh fruits and vegetables may cause them to lose their flavor or color or produce may become soft if not done properly and at the right temperature.

To simplify and reduce costs for the process of preserving and keeping cold agricultural products for export, you should use the Mini Scrubber ethylene suction machine with special technology that can absorb ethylene in the storage of fruits and vegetables and convert it into CO2 and moisture, thereby ensuring the freshness of the product during long-distance transportation.

Advantages of Mini Scrubber ethylene suction machine:

• Ideal choice for cold storage, truck bodies, containers with capacity of about 700m3.
• Protect fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers from ethylene and moisture.
• Increase shelf life of products in cold storage and refrigerated containers.
• Protects against ripening, inhibits the growth of mold and fungi.

Preserving Agriculture Products Using MAP Bags – Modified Atmosphere Bags

MAP film helps preserve agricultural products for a longer period of time. This is understood as a new post-harvest agriculture product preservation technology with 3.4 times more efficiency.

In particular, after preservation, the fruit always retains its original flavor, quality and color.

MAP (Modified Atmosphere Packaging) bag technology has been around for a long time in countries with strong agricultural development.

However, in Vietnam, this is a new preservation method and is preferred by many businesses. Each type of agricultural product will have a different type of suitable MAP modified atmosphere bag .

Preservation by Ethylene Desiccation

Harvested fruits and vegetables produce a natural hormone called Ethylene.

Ethylene gas helps fruits ripen quickly and accelerates the aging process leading to spoilage. Therefore, to extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables, we must limit the presence of ethylene gas in the storage environment as well as warehouses, containers, packaging, etc.

Using ethylene absorbing bags will help reduce the amount of this gas in the storage environment, thereby effectively reducing the aging and damage of vegetables and fruits during long-distance transportation.

Sealed Agriculture Product Preservation Method

One of the safe methods of preserving fruits and vegetables today is to keep them sealed. Using this method will help the fruits to always stay in good condition and not be exposed to oxygen.

It is not difficult to contain 20% oxygen content and is also a factor that causes agricultural products to spoil. Therefore, sealed storage is a way to remove oxygen in the environment.

Currently, there are 2 ways to remove air and moisture in the environment including:

• The most popular method today is to use oxygen desiccant packets, which contain activated carbon, iron, Zeolite… so they also help to remove oxygen effectively.
• Vacuuming is also the best way to remove oxygen and moisture. At the same time, this method also helps inhibit the growth and development of harmful bacteria.

KIF Map Bag for Room Temperature Preservation

Map KIF bags for preserving agriculture products at room temperature are modified atmosphere bags, one of Keep-it-Fresh  ‘s most popular products .

These bags are available in various sizes and contain specialized properties that help protect agriculture products from damage during storage, display & long distance transportation.

Map KIF bags for preserving agriculture products are one of the effective methods for preserving fruits and vegetables with leading preservation advantages such as:

• Ethylene absorption : when using MAP bags, ethylene gas is produced by vegetables and fruits and then absorbed by minerals in KIF MAP Bags.
• Ethylene oxidation : At this time, ethylene gas will be absorbed and converted from oxygen into water and carbon dioxide, thereby limiting agricultural products from being exposed to oxygen.
• Moisture absorption : also helps vegetables absorb moisture and inhibits the growth of microorganisms in agricultural products.
• Atmospheric change:  Increase CO2 & decrease O2 thereby limiting plant metabolism, thereby minimizing damage & at the same time creating an anaerobic environment, inhibiting the life of microorganisms and harmful bacteria.

For agricultural businesses, preserving agriculture products after harvest is extremely necessary.
