Breakthrough in Postharvest Technology to Reduce Food Waste Supporting Global Goals
<\/strong>Researchers have successfully extended the postharvest shelf life of high-yielding tropical tomatoes by introgressing Sletr1-2 mutant alleles in a backcross population. The findings reveal that genetic improvement not only prolongs fruit durability but also reduces postharvest losses, which is crucial for farmers in tropical regions. This study supports SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) by improving food availability and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production)<\/strong> by minimizing food waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Led by Wiguna, G, the research demonstrates how plant breeding innovations can address both productivity and sustainability challenges. This breakthrough ensures that farmers and consumers benefit from longer-lasting, high-quality tomatoes while reducing economic losses and environmental impacts from wasted produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
