Mango and Other Fruits and Vegetables Processing
Processing is one of the most effective solutions to reduce the wastages. In India processing of fruits and vegetables is extremely low and is below 2%. Value addition to the raw produce is only 7% compared to as much as 23% in China, 45% in the Philippines and 88% in the UK. Thus the processing (including value addition through post harvest management) industry holds tremendous potential not only for contributing to the GDP but also for generating employment in rural areas and business opportunities for entrepreneurs. Among various processing technologies (canning, dehydration, pickling, provisional preservation, bottling etc), freezing is one of the most popular methods for preservation of foods. Main advantages of freezing technology include: Preservation of produce for 9-12 months without changing the basic characteristics and nutritional value of the food No preservatives are used Cost of processing is relatively less as compared to canning, bottling etc. The product is hygienic Convenience and off season availability
On the other hand there are certain special requirements such as maintenance of cold chain all through the sales channel and high power requirement for freezing and storage. In last couple of years frozen mango pulp has become very popular in retail market. Even second rung cities like are becoming quite attractive and major players have set up distribution network in these cities. 1.2 Objective

Process description for frozen vegetables
Procedure (in sequential order) Grower Storage Inspection Raw Receiving Peeling Cutting Grading Blanching Description Produce arrive at the plant for processing. Samples of the unprocessed produce are taken to be graded and for grower payment. Unprocessed produce is off-loaded from trucks and inspected to decide if it requires sorting. In case of mangoes, the produce is first ripened Unprocessed produce is pealed. Those products as may require cutting are cut according to buyer specifications. A special cutting equipment is proposed for the unit Pieces that are too small or misshapen are removed from the main processing line and used in other products. Product like peas and sweet corn require blanching at 160o-180oF for 1540 minutes to remove natural sugars, stabilize enzymes, and create a good texture. Blanched produce is pre-cooled at 0oF for 15 minutes before entering the freeze tunnel. Produce is quickly frozen for 30 minutes at -40oF. The frozen products are packaged into bags. Packages are stored in a cold storage warehouse until shipment to grocery stores, restaurants and other customers.
