Fruit Development, Ripening & HarvestHow should sapburn losses be measured when comparing mango harvest methods?
Keep trial lots identified by harvesting method and assess them at the same later stage, since immediate appearance may understate marking. Record both the proportion of fruit affected and the severity of the marks using a consistent scale. Include comparable maturity groups in each method. Compare saleable recovery as well as picking speed before deciding whether a faster system improves the overall result.
