Extending Tomato Shelf Life for Reduced Food Waste Supporting Global Goals
<\/strong>Researchers have explored how combining 1-MCP with ascorbic acid can maintain postharvest tomato quality. The findings reveal that this treatment slows down ripening, preserves firmness, and enhances nutritional content, thereby extending fruit shelf life. This aligns with SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Led by Kusumiyati, K, the study highlights a sustainable postharvest strategy to reduce losses and provide consumers with fresher, nutrient-rich tomatoes. This innovation helps farmers and retailers cut waste while ensuring reliable food availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
