Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of benzyl adenine (BA) on custard apple (Annona squamosa L.) fruit (collected in Lang Son) after harvest to prolong storage life. The experiment was treated with BA at different concentrations of 50 ppm, 100 ppm and 150 ppm. Initial research shows that BA was significantly effective in extending the storage life of custard apples through affecting some quality parameters of post-harvest custard apples, including reducing physiological weight loss (PWL), slowing down ripening time, maintaining firmness and reducing spoilage rate. Samples treated at BA 150 ppm showed better results, helping to extend the storage life of custard apple to 6.5 days compared to the control.
