Post-harvest technology, processing, quality, and safety examines the crucial stages after harvest that ensure seafood products retain their nutritional value, flavor, and safety for consumers. Effective post-harvest management involves proper handling, storage, and transportation techniques to maintain product quality and prevent contamination. Advanced processing technologies such as freezing, drying, and canning extend shelf life while preserving the freshness of seafood. Additionally, maintaining strict quality control standards during these processes ensures that products meet regulatory guidelines and consumer expectations. This session also addresses the importance of food safety measures, focusing on preventing microbial contamination, pathogens, and chemical residues. By enhancing processing technologies and maintaining high standards of quality and safety, the aquaculture industry can deliver safe, high-quality seafood products to global markets while minimizing waste and promoting sustainability.
