Introduction<\/strong>
In today\u2019s fast-paced world, no one likes watching their fresh veggies wilt, rot, or get tossed out after just a few days.

What Happens to Vegetables After Harvest?<\/h4>

  • Wilting leaves<\/strong><\/li>\n\n
  • Soft or mushy textures<\/strong><\/li>\n\n
  • Color loss<\/strong><\/li>\n\n
  • Increased sugar levels \u2192 microbial spoilage<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>
