Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda has been established as a full-fledged State University, having unique honour of being the “First Agricultural University of Bundelkhand Region”. The University was notified vide Government Order No. 301/79-V-1-10-1 (Ka) 27-2009 Lucknow and established on 2nd March 2010 under Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) 1958 Gazette-Adhiniyam 2010. Initially it was named as “Manyawar Shri Kanshiram Ji University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda”, which was changed as “Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda” vide Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) Adhiniyam, 2014, No. 1528(2)/LXXIX-V-1-14-1(Ka)-13-2014 dated 4th December 2014. The University has been established for the development of the agriculture and allied sectors in the Uttar Pradesh on the whole and Bundelkhand region in particular. It is committed to serve the Bundelkhand region with trinity concept, i.e. complete integration of teaching, research and extension for the development of agriculture and allied sectors in order to ensure food security and enhance socio-economic status of inhabitants.

    Effect of pretreatments on storage behavior of osmotically dehydrated pineapple (Ananas comosus L. Merr.) candy
    (Post larvest Technology, College of Morticulture, Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda, 2023-09-25) Sunil Kumar Verma; Balaji Vikram
    The present investigation entitled “Effect of pre-treatments on storage behavior of osmotically dehydrated pineapple (Ananas comosus L. Merr.) candy” was conducted at Post Harvest Technology Laboratory, College of Horticulture, Banda University of Agriculture and Technology Banda, during the year 2023. An experiment was laid out in completely randomized design (CRD). Pre- treatments study was done on the basis of physico-chemical parameters as well as organoleptic quality of osmotically dehydrated pineapple candy with eight treatment combinations. The physico-chemical parameters of osmotcally dehydrated pineapple candy viz., TSS (°Brix), reducing sugars (%), nonreducing sugars (%), total sugars (%), acidity (%), pH, ascorbic acid (mg/100g) total phenol (%), crude protein (g/100g), crude fat (g/100g), crude fiber (g/100g),carbohydrate(g/100g), non-enzymatic browning and organoleptic quality i.e., colour, flavour, texture, taste and overall acceptability were evaluated at 0,30,60 up to 90 days of storage. Study of pre-treatment combinations with respect to physico-chemical characteristics of osmotically dehydrated pineapple candy reflected that non-reducing sugars (%), pH and crude protein content (g/100g), acidity (%), ascorbic acid (mg/100g), crude fat (g/100g), crude fiber(g/100g), total phenol (%) showed an decreasing trend while TSS (°Brix), reducing sugars (%), total sugars (%), carbohydrate(g/100g), non-enzymatic browning were in increasing trend during 0, 30,60 and 90 days of storage. Organoleptic scores of colour, flavour, texture, taste and overall acceptability also showed decreasing trend as storage period increased.
