Abstract
In recent years, kiwifruit has been loved by consumers because of its juicy meat and storage resistance. During the ripening of kiwi fruit, people cannot judge its maturity through appearance traits. Kiwifruit harvest maturity is closely related to fruit ripening quality, but there is still no effective standard for judging kiwifruit harvest maturity. Based on this, the effects of different harvesting time on fruit quality were analyzed by measuring the changes of kiwifruit hardness, dry matter content, total phenolic content, titratable acid and soluble sugar. The aim is to provide a reference for the scientific development of kiwifruit harvesting plan and storage and preservation program.
