For proper design of grading systems of horticultural crops, important relationships between the mass and other properties of fruits such as length, width, thickness, volumes and projected areas must be known. The aim of this research was to measure and present some physical properties of persimmon fruits and correlating the mass of persimmon fruits to measured physical properties using linear, quadratic, S-curve and power models as three different classifications: (1) Single variable regressions of persimmon dimensional characteristics, (2) single variable regressions of persimmon mass based on projected areas and (3) estimating the persimmon mass based on its volumes. The results showed that mass modeling of persimmon based on length and the first... |
