Abstract

The population of earth is increasing exponentially but the natural resources are limited. Food is among the three basic needs of humans. Farmers continuously try to increase the production of crops. Artificial fertilizers help in boosting the growth of the crops than the natural ones, therefore farmers try to maximize the produce by using them. These may lead to the increase in production but in turn degrade the quality of produce. Due to excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides these chemicals enter the food chain and ultimately cause bio magnifications causing an adverse effect on our health. Hence we need a portable device that can analyze the organic components of the fruit/vegetable. This research focuses on determining the organic as well as inorganic components of the fruit/vegetable so that the consumer may know whether the eatable is fit for consumption or not. There should be a device that would show the ratio of organic components to inorganic components. The consumer can use this ratio as a benchmark to buy the eatables fit for.
