The illustration provides a breakdown of the various stages and apparatus involved in the process by which pineapples are grown and produced into three types of distinct products.
Overall, it is discernable from the diagram that the natural process consists of 4 distinct stages from the plant of pineapple crowns to the mature fruit. Once harvested, pineapples undergo the man-made process commencing with the separation of size and ending with the manufacturing of a beverage, a canned food, and an export for commercial purposes.
In the planting period, pineapple crowns are grown on the fields with a distance of about 26 centimeters apart, additionally, they also live in the temperature condition, which ranges from 23 to 30 degrees Celcius, particularly in the tropical parts. After 7 months, ethylene is prayed on the pineapple’s crown, when they become ripened fruits, they can reach to the biggest size with a height of 30 centimeters and 2 kilograms in weight.
After the harvesting crop, pineapples are washed out and graded in their size. Once separated, the smallest and medium-sized are cut their crowns and peeled their rinds, following that the former pineapples are put into the extractor to produce pineapple juice, and the latter pineapples are cut into slices, which are sequentially canned. On the other hand, the biggest-size pineapples are coated in wax, packed in boxes, and ultimately delivered abroad.
