STUDIES ON PROCESSING QUALITY OF MANGO HYBRIDS DEVELOPED AT IARI |
| Authors: | D.S. Khurdiya, S. K. Roy |
| Abstract:
Investigations were carried out to assess the processing quality of the ripe mango hybrids Malika and Amrapali and compared with Dashehari, a commercial cultivar of North India suitable for processing. Mallika was found to have high cheek per cent with fibreless firm flesh ideal for canning of mango slices in syrup. Results indicated that the mango hybrid Amrapali had great potentiality in beverage industry since it had a very high total carotenoid pigments which can enrich the colour of the poor quality pulp available to the industry by suitable blending. Since both the mango hybrids have processing qualities, the present shortage of high quality raw materials in the mango industry can be considerably overcome by commercializing these two hybrids. | |
