Apple cider vinegar developed using Parmar varsity's tech launched

Solan, Nov 7 (UNI) An apple cider vinegar production technology, standardized by Dr. YS Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry (UHF), Nauni would soon find its way in Northren Indian markets.
Under the transfer of technology initiative started by the university, a Jubbal based food enterprise has come out with an apple cider vinegar developed on the university technology. The vinegar, developed by Hilly Foods, a company based at Nandpur in Jubbal, has been developed as a fast and effective alternative to the traditional methods of producing vinegar.
The production of apple cider vinegar can be taken as an alternative approach for the complete utilization of culled apples and improving the livelihood of the farming community in the state. Unlike the traditional methods, which are slow and result in poor quality vinegar, the university’s technology has managed to overcome the problems. The scientists of the university solved the issues by optimizing various factors involved in the production of vinegar as well as base wine. After extensive research work, a modified process was developed to produce quality vinegar in comparatively lesser time. A modified pilot vinegar production plant has also been developed for production of cider vinegar.
The product was recently launched by UHF Vice-Chancellor Dr. Parvinder Kaushal at the university campus. BS Rawat, entrepreneur and proprietor of Hilly Foods, who had ventured into vinegar manufacturing after facing the prospect of losing his apple produce to post-harvest losses was also present on the occasion. Director Research Dr. Rakesh Gupta, Dean Horticulture Dr. ML Bhardwaj, Librarian Dr. DD Sharma, HOD FST Dr. Anju Dhiman and Dr. Rakesh Sharma also took part in the launch ceremony.
