Abstract

Bananas (Musa paradisiaca L.) is a climacteric fruit having short storing period and fast fruit quality decrease. Maturity stage of banana fruit is an important factor that influences the fruit quality, so that the maturity level to determine proper harvesting time is required. Harvesting of banana fruit based on the fruit physical characteristics such as diameter and days after anthesis is considered to be less precise. The objective of this research was to find out the influence of banana fruit diameter to it’s maturity level that was detected by thermal image method. This research was conducted using three fruit maturity levels based on their diameter; small diameter (<38), medium diameter (38-42), and large diameter (43-48) with skim scale at stage I. That scale was commonly used to determine quality standard size of Cavendish bananas, especially for international trade. The result showed that the increasing of fruit maturity level was followed by decreasing of firmness and increasing of fruit weight, °Brix, free acid, and sucrose. Thermal image method is potentially used to detect the fruit maturity level where increasing of fruit size was followed by rising of temperature.
