Post harvest treatment

Marketing pomegranates during the longest possible period of the year and maintaining their appearance and quality, is the desire of every fruit grower and retail chain. For the processing industry it is also advantageous to receive the fruit during most months of the year.

Currently, where one variety (Wonderful) is dominant, picking takes up to 2 months and even after the introduction of additional varieties the harvest season will last for only a few months.

It is important, therefore, to extend the supply period by keeping the fruit in cold storage. Its efficacy is judged by the following criteria: (i) maintenance of the original vibrant color of the fruit, the arils, and the juice; (ii) taste and (iii) TSS and acidity.

On the basis of our general know-how and experience, and what our expert has acquired in managing Israel's largest fruit cold storage facility, Pomeg-Tech is able to advise our clients on how best to extend their season.

A number of storage techniques are practiced in the industry according to the length of the planned storage period:

Short term – up to one month
Medium term – up to ten weeks
Long term – up to 16 weeks

The accumulated Pomeg-Tech experience can be summed up in its understanding of how to create an optimal storage environment by controlling the following key technical and logistical factors for each of the above techniques:

Optimization of the picking dates
Determination of the best growing environment for the fruit in relation to
The creation of optimal storage conditions,

In summary, the producers will be able to prolong their supply period by up to four months by availing themselves of Pomeg-Tech's broad experience with cold storage.
