Modern Techniques and Approaches in Storage of Harvested
and Processed Plant and Animal Food Products
The storage of food grains, vegetables and animal products is an economic activity
practiced by cultivators, traders and retailers. Quantitative and qualitative losses and changes
take place during storage of food commodities Stared food commodities are prone to attack by
insects, mites, rodents, fungi and bacteria. Rodents, insects and mites are the most important
haards to the safe storage of food grains. !egetables and animal products are spoiled by
bacteria, insects and fungi. Scientific storage methods are needed to prevent the economic
losses that occur during storage of harvested and processed food commodities. "dvanced
storage facilities are important to ensure household and community food security. This #ill
also ensure the soothe farmers a adequate return on their produce and #ill avoid the situation
of farmers being forced to sell at lo# prices in the glut that often follo#s a harvest. Scientific
storage involves controlling the factors, like temperature, moisture, light, pests and hygieneto
minimie the losses and damages during storage due to insects, rodents and micro$orgamsms%
chemical damage through rancidity development and flavour changes, etc and physical damage
through crushing, breaking, etc. &urther hygienic and sanitary storage conditions are also
important from food safety point of vie#.
Objectives The ma'or ob'ective of this summer school is to provide training to scientists and
teachers to update their skill and impart the modern scientific kno#ledge in the field of post$
harvest storage of plant and animal produce. This training on modern techniques of food
processing research and development is an important step to achieve post$harvest losses
reduction, safe handling and in realiing the goals of food security of the nation. This summer
school gives an opportunity to young scientists and teachers to discuss and e(change their
ideas #ith e(perts)resource persons #ho are #orking in this field.
About !"PH#T
The !entral "nstitute of Post$Harvest #ngineering and Technolog% &!"PH#T' #as
established on *+ ,ecember 1+-+ at .udhiana, /un'ab, 0ndia as a nodal institute to undertake
lead researches in the area of the post$harvest engineering and technology appropriate to
agricultural production catchment and agro)food$industries. The institute1s second campus #as
established on 1+ 2arch 1++3 at "bohar, /un'ab, 0ndia #hich is primarily responsible for
conducting research and development activities on fruits and vegetables, and commercial
horticultural crops. 40/56T is also headquarters for t#o "ll 0ndia 4oordinated Research
/ro'ects 7"04R/s8 vi. "04R/ on /ost$5arvest Technology 7/5T8 at 3- 4entres and "04R/
on "pplications of /lastics in "griculture 7"/"8 at 11 4entre9s.
40/56T envisions higher profitability of agricultural production systems ensuring
better income to farmers and increased employment opportunities in rural sector through
efficient post$harvest engineering and technological interventions for loss reduction and value
addition to agricultural produce and by$products resulting in high quality and safe food and
feed at competitive prices for domestic and e(port markets.

.udhiana, popularly kno#n as 2anchester of 0ndia is located on the bank of river
Satlu' and is centrally located on the map of /un'ab. :eographically, it lies bet#een north
latitude 3;<$3=9 and 3;<$;19 and east longitude >?<$1-9 and >@<$*;9. 0t covers an area of 3-?>
kmA. Being in the centre of /un'ab and situated on :rand Trunk Road and the main rail#ay
line, it has developed into a main industrial and commercial hub of the state. .udhiana is
famous for its hosiery and te(tiles, bicycle and se#ing machine industry. /un'ab being the
granary of 0ndia, and .udhiana an industrial city, many food grain stocks and its processing
units are located around it.
.udhiana has a tropical climatic condition. &rom "pril to Cune, the city e(periences
summer season. The city remains e(cessively hot, ma(imum temperature reaches up to 3-D4.
Cune brings a little rain but it does not help reduce the scorching heat as the average minimum
temperature hardly drops to **D4.
!ourse content The course content #ill broadly cover modern concepts of food storage,
distribution, advanced techniques in food quality evaluation, measurement and analytical
techniques, environment management, food handling systems, transportation, food
irradiation, R&0,, hybrid cool system, 2"/ and smart packaging technologies, froen storage,
4"/ storage, biosensors, nano technology, novel methods in drying, clean and green
