The Department of Standards Malaysia, a government agency

under the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation

(MOSTI) has established Technical Committee on Fresh Fruits

Technical Committee on Planting Materials and Technical

Committee on Fresh Vegetables, which are the standards

development committees responsible in developing Malaysian

Standards (MS), under the authority of the Food and Agricultural

Industry Standards Committee (ISC A).

The market for quality agricultural products is continuously

growing as the Malaysians are increasingly demanding a wide

choice of high quality fresh produce, reflecting high safety.

Compliance of produce to certain standards means that

consumers can have confidence that the products are safe,

reliable and of good quality. There is a need for fresh fruits and

fresh vegetables that have good shelf life both before and after

retail in order to maintain retain nutritional and sensory qualities,

hence minimising waste. It is essential that traits related to

postharvest behavior are taken into consideration from the early

steps of new crop design and selection of planting material with

high health status.

Jabatan Standard Malaysia, agensi kerajaan di bawah

Kementerian Sains, Teknologi dan Inovasi (MOSTI) telah

menubuhkan Jawatankuasa Teknikal bagi Buah Segar,

Jawatankuasa Teknikal bagi Bahan Tanaman dan

Jawatankuasa Teknikal bagi Sayuran Segar, yang merupakan

jawatankuasa yang membangunkan Malaysian Standard (MS),

di bawah bidang Jawatankuasa Standard Perindustrian

Makanan dan Pertanian (ISC A).

Pasaran produk pertanian yang berkualiti tinggi terus meningkat

seiring dengan kesedaran rakyat bahawa kualiti yang baik

mencerminkan keselamatan produk tersebut. Pematuhan

kepada standard tertentu memberikan jaminan kualiti bahawa

produk yang dipasarkan adalah selamat, terjamin dan berkualiti.

Buah-buahan dan sayur-sayuran segar perlu mempunyai kualiti

yang baik sebelum dan selepas jualan bagi mengekalkan Kualiti

kandungan nutrisi dan sensori serta mengurangkan kerosakan.

Adalah penting bagi semua perkara berkaitan lepas tuai produk

dijaga dan diambil kira sedari awal, bermula dengan pemilihan

bahan penanaman dengan status kesihatan yang baik.
