Abstract:
Tomato is a very popular vegetable throughout the country and it is grown in many states.
Apart from use in vegetables, its down stream products like soup, concentrates, sauce, puree,
ketchup are also equally popular and they have a longer shelflife unlike fresh tomatoes.
Tomato is perishable and needs to be transported carefully to avoid damage during transit.
With the advent of new technology, many down the line products are made and are consumed
round the year as table enrichers.
