Description Fruit cultivation requires constant care and monitoring to ensure the production of fruits of high quality. Fruit bagging stands out among the several methods used by fruit growers for its potency in preserving fruit quality as well as boosting sustainability. This technique has gained significant popularity and recognition within the realm of horticulture and agriculture due to its numerous benefits in improving fruit quality, appearance, and market value. Using this method, one can protect individual fruits from pests and diseases, harsh weather conditions and physical damage by enclosing them in bags made of different materials, such as paper, plastic or fabric. Fruit bagging not only safeguards the fruit’s integrity but also contributes to improved fruit appearance and quality by creating a microenvironment around the fruit. It may seem like a simple idea, yet it is crucial to the development of quality fruit crops.
