Abstract:The post‐harvesting procedures, such as grading, washing, transporting, and packaging can be made better with understanding of the attributes of agricultural commodities. The paper aims to estimate the asparagus roots' thermal, physical, and biochemical characteristics. The asparagus was found to vary in the range of 6.26–13.60 cm long. The width and thickness of the root were almost the same and ranged from .69 to 1.10 cm. The bulk density, true density, and porosity ranged from .561 to .771 g/cm3, 1.418 to 2… Show more
