In 1993, an article concerning Brazilian apple production included some aspects and figures related to the agricultural activity and the initial implantation stage. At that time, domestic production was 333,000 tonnes and apple orchards were to be found in regions of Paraná, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul. The main varieties were Gala and Fuj...

The dependent variable called Normal Agriculture changes as the independent variable time changes that is the yields of a normal agriculture variable changes deterministically as the length of the growing season changes when all the model parameter values are fixed. However, when the model parameter values 1 2 are decrease, the normal agricultural...

... O desenvolvimento de novas cultivares, de tecnologias na pré e pós-colheita e de incentivos governamentais, possibilitou alcançar um potencial de produção anual ao redor de 1.300.000 ton de maçãs (Wosiacki et al., 2000;Avila et al., 2015). ...
... O descarte consiste em uma fração importante da produção e pode alcançar valores de 25 a 35% (Wosiacki & Nogueira, 2018), ocorrendo principalmente por efeitos climáticos como a escassez ou excesso de chuvas (Nachtigall, 2016), variações de temperatura, em especial no inverno, falta do número de horas de frio e granizo (Hawerroth et al., 2017;Bosco et al., 2015). A agroindústria nacional de maçã surgiu como forma de agregar valor a estas frutas, as quais passam (ou deveriam passar) por uma nova classificação antes de serem utilizadas no processamento de sucos/polpa, fermentado alcoólico, sidra, vinagre, destilado, licores, maçã desidratada e geleias/doces (Avila et al., 2015;Le Bourvellec et al., 2011;. ...

The present work aimed to evaluate quality parameters of 'Royal Gala' apple cubes during osmotic dehydration (OD). We investigated the following OD conditions: osmotic agent, pressure, and temperature. The osmotic agent, being lower after OD with sorbitol than sucrose solutions, mainly influenced the water activity of the product. The color changes increased with increased temperature and were higher in vacuum experiments than at atmospheric pressure. In general, we recommend OD at 25 °C and atmospheric pressure for the preservation of the total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity (AA) of apple cubes during the process. Peleg's model was found to provide the best fit of TPC and AA data. Resumo O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar parâmetros de qualidade de cubos de maçã Royal Gala durante o processo de desidratação osmótica (DO). As condições de operação da DO investigadas foram: o agente osmótico, a pressão e a temperatura. A atividade de água do produto foi influenciada principalmente pelo agente osmótico, sendo menor após DO com soluções de sorbitol do que de sacarose. Alterações de cor aumentaram com o incremento da temperatura e foram maiores nas experiências a vácuo do que à pressão atmosférica. Em geral, DOs a 25 °C e à pressão atmosférica são recomendadas para a conservação do teor em fenóis totais (TFT) e da atividade antioxidante (AA) dos cubos de maçã durante o processo. O modelo de Peleg permitiu o melhor ajuste dos dados experimentais de TFT e AA.
