Storing Plantain Using A Traditional Cold Jar

Optimizing the use of plantains depends not only on increasing its production but also improving post-harvest operations before it reaches final consumer. Proper management during period is better than using advanced technology. Themain objective this study to preserve in a traditional cold pot locality Man. To carry out experiment, we used device consisting large containing small and clay filling space between pot. This device, commonly known as “desert fridge”, has enabled us obtain green lifespans for Corne 1 Agnrin cultivars 15 22 days. During our conservation, physical biochemical characteristics were determined. The analyzes revealed slight lower mass loss: Horn (6.85 ±0.2%) (7.4 ±0.5%), loss firmness dry matter, reduction starches dietary fiber. But other hand, an increase content reducing sugars, transfer color skin from yellow stored plantains.
