As autumn approaches and citrus fruit selections become more abundant, the Deutscher Fruchthandelverband (DFHV) is set to host a comprehensive online seminar on citrus quality. Scheduled for September 25, 2024, this event aims to deepen participants’ understanding of citrus fruits, including oranges, mandarins, and grapefruits, which are prized for their diverse flavors and historical significance in human diets.
The DFHV Freshness Seminar will cover essential topics such as the botanical features of citrus plants, cultivation and harvesting techniques, and common quality defects. This seminar is particularly relevant for professionals involved in logistics, warehousing, and quality management, as well as buyers and sales representatives in the fruit industry. A notable aspect of the seminar is the discussion on the misconception that a green peel always indicates immaturity, providing valuable insights into citrus fruit ripeness.
Participants will benefit from an interactive format, featuring live discussions with a product specialist and access to multimedia resources. The use of images and videos will illustrate potential quality issues based on industry standards, helping attendees better identify and address these concerns in their work.
The DFHV’s educational platform offers this webinar at a special rate for members, including a participation certificate. The seminar promises to be a valuable resource for those seeking to enhance their knowledge of citrus fruit quality and improve their practices in quality control and management.
