The given diagram illustrates how pineapples are grown and processed into distinct products.
Overall, this process involves two stages: the way to grow pineapples and how to prepare its crop by both natural and man-made methods. Regarding the diagram, qualified pineapples may turn to a beverage, a canned product or even an export.
To begin with, pineapples need to be grown with a 26-centimeter space apart from each crown, in a normal temperature (from 23 to 30 degrees Celsius). After 7 months, eathaline is sprayed on the plants, then they continue growing for an additional five months until they are mature pineapples. At this step, people might harvest and check if those plants are qualified: more than 30 centimetres in height and 2 kilograms in weight.
Following the process, the harvested pineapples being washed can be sorted due to their sizes. Since graded, the smallest and medium-sized pineapples have their top cut, then their skin peeled. The former ones may go into an extractor to produce juice while the latter be chopped into smaller pieces or slices, both of its are canned then ready to be on display. It is clear that the big-sized must be waxed in cleaning liquid, arranging in a packing case before being exported.
