Sažetak
The quality of fruits is depending on the pre & postharvest management of any fruit crop including berries which are most sensitive and delicate type of fruit crops. The management of the orchards or any agricultural filed is labor intensive and slow process with high production cost. With the recent advancement in agricultural technology several mechanical and robotic machines have been introduced which have not only reduced the production cost by reducing labor but they make it easier and less time-consuming than traditional pre & harvesting management system. This study summarizes the current and state of knowledge regarding the mechanized pre & postharvest practices used for different berry crops with emphasis on the short description of the recent mechanical and robotic harvesters available in the market.
