 ABSTRACT

The objective was to evaluate physical and chemical properties of  pomegranate accessions For our research Ganesh variety has collected from vijayapu surrounding area and the fruit should be free from  pest and diseases, dust particles and post harvest losses. The fruits should be stored at refrigerator for about 10 to 15 days. The present study was carried out in the department of Food Processing and Nutrition, Akkamahadevi Women’s University, vijayapur, Karnataka. Accessions showed high variability in fruit that is Shape, Fruit color, Color (aril), Size (mm), Thousand arils weight (gm) and number of arils. Nutrient composition of Pomegranates fruitcan also evaluate in this present study. Pomegranate fruit is light yellowish red to dark red in color, round shape and width (90mm) with thousand aril weight (460g) and number of arils (400).The nutrient composition of Carbohydrate, Moisture, Protein, Fat , Iron and Vit-C is 35.3g, 1.47% , 2.83g , 0.4g , 3.31mg, 29mg respectively.
