Post-harvest losses in mango: causes and control measures.

A survey was conducted in mango orchards, markets and processing units in Karnataka, India, to determine the extent and causes of postharvest losses in mango. The technology to reduce postharvest losses had not been used by the farmers and other participants in the mango marketing system (<1% of the total income from an orchard was spent on plant protection measures by farmers). Postharvest losses of up to 4% were estimated at the processing end of the marketing system. The major cause of losses were identified as postharvest diseases including stem-end-rot, anthracnose, Aspergillus and Rhizopus rots. It is suggested that these losses could be reduced by following the recommended technology.
