Accurately predicting mango shelf-life is key to delivering high-quality fruit that meets market and consumer expectations. This section provides tools and insights to help growers, packers, and exporters estimate how long fruit will remain in optimal condition.
Explore case studies that show how shelf-life modelling is being applied in practice, and access the Mango Shelf-Life Prediction Calculator (available to members only), developed by QDPI. The tool factors in maturity at harvest, temperature throughout the supply chain, and total time in transit to estimate remaining shelf life.
The goal is to support a shift from a traditional first in, first out approach to a more informed strategy of shortest remaining shelf life, first out, helping reduce waste, improve consistency, and better meet market requirements.
