Fruit Development, Ripening & HarvestWhat does mango dry matter testing measure?
Dry matter testing compares a sample's fresh weight with its weight after water has been removed using a specified procedure. It provides information about accumulated solids rather than simply measuring current sweetness. Use the sampling and drying method associated with your local maturity standard. Record fruit identity and fresh weight carefully, since a precise-looking result is only useful when sample preparation is consistent.
