In this study, the case of tomato postharvest losses and postharvest technologies to reduce these losses are assessed. Tomato is an important crop in Ghana, consumed in large volumes. However, postharvest losses of tomato that occur at the pre-consumer level have been estimated at between 20-50%.

Tomato production is mainly done for fresh and processing market niches. Most developed countries process a larger portion of tomato than is offered in fresh form.

The bulk of tomato production is concentrated in river valleys and lakes, especially in the Awash Valley and around Lake Ziway for their favorable growing conditions, good access to market outlets and better infrastructure and other facilities. Productivity of tomato farms ranged from25-40 tonnes per hectare.

1. Introduction The 'pomato' is a chimeric plant produced by grafting a tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) scion on a potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) rootstock, with tomatoes growing on the vine while potato tubers grow under in the soil of the same plant. Both species belong to the Solanaceae family, share a common primary chromosome number, and have natural graft compatibility [1]. Grafting ...
