Abstract

The effect of VARIETY, harvesting time and fruit size were investigated on the mechanical properties of POMEGRANATE skin, DENSITY and MECHANICAL STRENGTH. The results revealed that POMEGRANATE cultivars (Ardestani, Shisheh-Cap and Malas) were of different skin thicknesses, resulting in difference in forces required for penetration into the fruit (10%). Shisheh-Cap VARIETY was of a skin thicker than those of the others. MECHANICAL STRENGTH of Shisheh-Cap and Ardestani varieties were found of 453 and 428 N respectively. Malas VARIETY exhibited the least strength against compression forces with the strength getting decreased by 15% with delay in harvesting of the fruit. It was shown that by increase in fruit size, the DENSITY was reduced by 39% and while the MECHANICAL STRENGTH being increased by 25%.
