Description
Aradhika Vijeev and colleagues review in 2026 how light from LEDs and ultraviolet lamps can keep fruits and vegetables fresh after harvest. Produce spoils quickly through natural aging, germs, and quality loss during storage and transport. Light treatment leaves no chemical residue, which makes it attractive for food storage.
The review compares results across the growing and storage stages, covering photosynthesis, antioxidant levels, germ control, and shelf life. Responses differ widely by crop type, growth stage, and light settings, which has blocked shared standards. By mapping those differences, the authors set out steps toward crop-specific light recipes that farms and warehouses could actually use.
