TY - BOOK A1 - Mahajan, Pramod A1 - Zude-Sasse, Manuela T1 - 10th International FRUTIC Symposium N2 - Fresh fruit and vegetables are a major source of biologically active compounds (e. g. fibers, vitamins and minerals) essential for human wellbeing. They are, however, perishable living products that require coordinated measures by growers, storage operators, processors and retailers to maintain their quality and reduce food loss and waste. Non-destructive techniques for analysing the quality of fresh produce are valuable tools applicable along the supply chain. Fresh produce attributes such as appearance, texture, flavour and nutritional value habe been traditional quality criteria, but increasingly safety and tracebility are important for all the role players along the supply chain from the farm to consumer. The FRUTIC symposium held in February 2017 in cooperation with fair trade FRUIT LOGISTICA focused on the quality and safety of fresh horticultural commodities. The FRUITC provided a platform for researchers and practitioners to engage in technical discussions about innovations and new technologies, as well as to explore further areas of research needed in the industry to promote quality and safety of fruit and vegetables. The FRUTIC symposium was organized jointly by an enthusiastic group of researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Agricultural Engineering and Bioeconomy (Germany) and the University of Foggia (Italy). For the first time, FRUTIC symposium was being organized in cooperation with the FRUIT LOGISTICA held at the CityCube Berlin on 7 February 2017. FRUTIC lecturers also presented their topics during the subsequent three days of the FRUIT LOGISTICA trade fair, in industry-oriented workshops on specific topics. This event is designed to provide a concerted platform that brings together academics, research scientists and all the role players from fresh produce industry. The Symposium comprises of 3 keynote talks, 3 oral sessions with 18 lectures, >20 posters, covering all three major topics: pre-harvest; postharvest quality and postharvest safety.
