It is important to understand and improve the traditional technology of postharvest handling and food processing in developing countries and to introduce more advanced technologies. Food spoilage in developing countries is a problem, the course will give the students an understanding on prevention food spoilage.The post harvest part will focus on storage of cereals, fruits and vegetables including starch rich tubers. Cooling and controlled atmosphere are important technologies. In addition the course include quality changes during storage of dairy and meat products. In the processing part of the course will focus on unit operations like blaching, solar drying, heat preservation, salting and fermentations. Quality changes during processing and storage e.g. vitamin losses will also be covered. Packaging materials and packaging methods used for fresh and processed products are also important subjects in this course.
