Fresh horticultural produce is highly perishable, which need to be marketed immediately or processed into varied value-added products. The integrated approach from harvesting to the delivery into the hands of consumer, if handled and cared properly, can add value to fresh produce in the market. But fresh produce has limited life, although it can be stored at appropriate temperature and relative humidity for some time. If such produce is processed just after harvesting, it adds value and stabilizes the processed products for a quite long time. The processed products can be available round-the-year at reasonably similar price. These value-added products have great potential for export.
