Artificial ripening of fruits using ethylene is a widely adopted and safe practice in the agricultural industry. Ethylene, a naturally occurring plant hormone, accelerates the ripening process of fruits such as bananas, tomatoes, and avocados. This method ensures fruits ripen uniformly and reach consumers at their peak quality. Unlike harmful alternatives like calcium carbide, ethylene-based ripening is non-toxic and environmentally friendly. Utilizing controlled ethylene application helps maintain the nutritional value and safety of fruits, providing a reliable solution for both producers and consumers.
