Expected Result
In 2020 local fruit exports researced
30.31%
Research
Papaya fruit has many benefits as food,
Background
medicine, and beauty

Papaya marketing is lower than banana

and pineapple

Main Point
Climacteric fruit
Perishable

The risk of transporting

 Papaya
Harvest age 6-7 months or color
fruit skin is red 25-30%.

Varieties : Callina
Papaya is climacteric fruits,
even though it is harvested
at an undefined level, the
Characteristic :
fruit can ripen perfectly
Weight 0.8 – 1.5 kg/fruit
Oval shape
Thick and chewy skin
Sweet taste
 Hydrocooling Techniq
post-harvest cooling technique using water as a coolant in order
to extend the shelf life of the fruit. The temperature with this
technique can reach 0°C

Packaging filler material

Is a protection on the inside of the packaging to reduce
damage during transportation. Commonly used filling
materials are straw, dry leaves, banana stem midrib,
newsprint and others
 Objective

effect of applying the hydrocooling technique on

prepackaging and determine the appropriate filler
material packaging of callina papaya so as to reduce
the risk of quality degradation and extend shelf life
during transportation
