As the demand for food safety, organized retail supply and export quality fruits is growing, controlled ripening infrastructure is becoming an integral part of the agricultural supply chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">India is the largest producer of bananas in the world and contributes significant portion of the world&#8217;s banana production. Based on the latest reports in the agriculture sector, India&#8217;s banana production has exceeded 33 million metric tonnes that gives rise to tremendous opportunities for businesses in post-harvest infrastructure. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agritell.com\/top-banana-producing-country-in-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Top Banana Producing Countries Report<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, this large production potential is not sufficient to tackle the problem of post-harvest losses in India&#8217;s agriculture sector. A statement from the government, shared with the Parliament, revealed that fruits and vegetables still suffer massive losses after harvest due to poor storage and processing facilities. <a
