This 2-days face-to-face training was held at the Escola Superior de Biotecnologia (UCP) facilities in Porto, Portugal. It covered several sessions to learn the basic principles behind the factors and processes affecting postharvest quality and understand the value of postharvest technologies and quality monitoring for maintaining postharvest quality and reducing losses.
