In India, carrot is a cool season crop with Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Assam being the major producing states with an annual production of 350,000 metric tonnes from an area of 24,000 hectare and postharvest loss accounting 7–15% (FAO, 2010). In carrots, mass loss and the occurrence of disease in the root are the principal causes of postharvest loss during bulk storage and commercialization, besides mechanical damage, sprouting and rooting. Supply Chain Management (SCM) is the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the operations of the supply chain with the purpose to satisfy customer requirements as efficiently as possible. SCM spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory and finished produce from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption. To reduce the postharvest losses through supply chain management have been discussed in this review.
