The flow chart depicts how pineapples are grown and the process of manufacturing pineapples.
Overall, this is a linear process categorized into two major phases, namely pineapple cultivation divided into four stages and how to handle it for three different uses.
In the first phase, pineapples are grown under sunlight with the most sustainable degree of 23 to 30 degree celsius, each pineapple is placed 26 cm apart for future growth. The crown is used for analyzing each stage of development in pineapples. After seven months, ethylene is used to fertilize and spark the development of pineapples. Pineapples are harvested in five more months, with the average height of 30 cm and a weight of about 2 kg.
Pineapples are then washed and separated into three groups, the biggest is used for pineapples exporting, while the other two are for making juice and can storing. Once the pineapples have separated, the two smaller groups experience the same process of cutting off the crown, peeling the shell. There is a slight difference at the final stage, with pineapples being put in the extractor and pressed for juice, which is stored in a carton box, and for the other process, pineapples have themselves slid in small pieces or in rings and packed in a can. In the biggest group of pineapples, each one is washed again to remove extra dirt, then boxed in a container and loaded onto a ship for exporting purposes.
