Özet:

 Increasing food demand is a pressing issue due to global food waste and population growth. In Türkiye, high humidity in the volcanic storage of Ortahisar leads to significant postharvest losses of lemons. This study aims to highlight the storage advantages of Kütdiken lemons by comparing the conditions in Bolus wide valley with those in Ortahisar. The lemons were stored in three environments: a mechanized cold storage, volcanic tuff storage, and valley storage in Bolu. Temperature and humidity were monitored with data loggers, while weight loss, decay rate, and quality characteristics were assessed periodically.The results indicated that both storage duration and environment significantly impact Kütdiken lemons. On the 30th day, weight loss was 6.03, increasing to 10.27 by the 120th day. The lowest weight loss occurred in controlled conditions 5.90, while the highest 6.64 was in valley storage. The decay rate was lowest at 2.12 in controlled storage and highest at 2.74 in valley storage. Juice content was measured at 30.16 on day 30 and 35.06 on day 120, with volcanic storage yielding the lowest juice content 30.92 and controlled storage the highest 32.79. In conclusion, Bolus favorable climate and logistical ease to markets like Istanbul and Ankara suggest that natural valley storage for lemons could be a viable alternative. Establishing natural storage facilities in this region could enhance capacity and competitiveness.

 Artan gıda talebi, küresel gıda israfı ve nüfus artışı nedeniyle önemli bir sorun haline gelmiştir. Türkiyede, Ortahisardaki volkanik depolama alanında yüksek nem, limonlarda önemli postharvest kayıplara yol açmaktadır. Bu çalışma, Kütdiken limonlarının depolama avantajlarını, Bolunun geniş vadi koşulları ile Ortahisardaki koşulları karşılaştırarak vurgulamayı amaçlamaktadır. Limonlar, üç farklı ortamda depolanmıştır: mekanize soğuk depolama, volkanik tüf depolaması ve Boludaki vadi depolaması. Sıcaklık ve nem, veri kayıt cihazları ile izlenmiş, ağırlık kaybı, bozulma oranı ve kalite özellikleri belirli aralıklarla değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuçlar, hem depolama süresinin hem de ortamın Kütdiken limonları üzerinde önemli etkileri olduğunu göstermiştir. 30. günde ağırlık kaybı 6.03, 120. günde ise 10.27ye çıkmıştır. En düşük ağırlık kaybı kontrollü koşullarda 5.90, en yüksek kayıp ise vadi depolamasında 6.64 gözlemlenmiştir. Bozulma oranı, kontrollü depolamada 2.12 ile en düşük, vadi depolamasında 2.74 ile en yüksek olmuştur. Meyve suyu içeriği, 30. günde 30.16, 120. günde ise 35.06 olarak ölçülmüştür; volkanik depolama en düşük meyve suyu içeriğini 30.92 verirken, kontrollü depolama en yüksek 32.79 içeriği sağlamıştır. Sonuç olarak, Bolunun uygun iklimi ve İstanbul ile Ankara gibi pazarlara lojistik kolaylığı, limonlar için doğal vadi depolamasının uygun bir alternatif olabileceğini göstermektedir. Bu bölgede doğal depolama tesislerinin kurulması, kapasiteyi artırarak rekabetçiliği geliştirebilir.
