This book covers the importance of post-harvest technology in horticultural crops, fruit growth, development and post harvest physiology, fruit maturity indices, harvesting of fruits and vegetables, initial handling of fruits and vegetable after harvesting, precooling of horticulture produce, transportation, etc.. It is a rich source of modern engineering technologies for income generating concept for agro based industries. The book is specially dedicated to the sub sector of the fruits and vegetables plants dealing with the fresh primary product from the product reception following the harvesting up-to the storage and before launches it to the market. This book will serves as a comprehensive guide for all the people who focuses on post harvest management skills.Note: T&F does not sell or distribute the hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

Quantum Artificial Intelligence explores the powerful convergence of quantum computing and artificial intelligence, a paradigm poised to redefine computational capabilities in the 21st century. This volume presents a comprehensive foundation of quantum algorithms, machine learning techniques, and hybrid quantum–classical architectures, guiding readers from core principles to advanced implementations. It further examines transformative applications across cybersecurity, healthcare, smart cities, financial systems, climate science, manufacturing, and space technologies. By integrating theoretical insights with real-world use cases, the book highlights how Quantum AI can accelerate complex data processing, optimize decision-making, and enable secure, scalable intelligent systems. Addressing ethical, legal, and societal considerations alongside emerging research directions, this work serves as an essential resource for researchers, academicians, and industry professionals seeking to understand and harness the future of intelligent quantum technologies.
