dc.description.abstractThe present investigation was carried out at the Post Harvest Laboratory of the Department of Vegetable Science at CCS Haryana Agricultural University during the year 2006. The main objective was to enhance the shelf life of pea pods and grains of varieties i.e. Arkil under ambient room temperature and zero energy chamber using different types of packaging materials viz., polyethylene bags (LDPE, HDPE and PVC) and News paper bags of 1 kg capacity for pods. LDPE packing at zero energy chamber storage was most effective in checking the PLW and decay loss. There was continuous decrease in sugar, TSS, chlorophyll content irrespective of the packaging treatments. However carotenoids content showed an increasing trend. Penicillium sp., Colletotrichum sp., Fusarium sp. & Aspergillus sp. were the main causal organism responsible for the decay. Among different treatment LDPE pods and grains packing at zero energy chamber storage were the best in maintaining physical, biochemical and pathological parameters up to 12th and 8th day respectively of storage. Whereas maximum degradation of fruits was found in News paper stored at room temperature.en_US
