1 BASELINE INFORMATION OF PAPAYA CROP IN SINDH PAKISTAN (BRPGP006-12). DR. SAIFULLAH KHAN PRINCIPAL 1 INVESTIGATOR BIOTECHNOLOGY WING INTERNATIONAL CENTER FOR CHEMICAL & BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES H.E.J. RESEARCH INSTITUTEUNIVERSITY OF KARACHI PAKISTAN.
2 PAPAYA Papaya cultivation spread from 32 0 N and S from the equator Currently grown in India, Hawaii island, Tropical America, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Indonesia, South America and Pakistan as commercial level cultivations. 2
3 PAPAYA GROWING COUNTRIES It is the fruit native to tropical America, now commercially grown in many parts of the world. It has emerged from the status of a home garden crop to that of commercial orchards. It gives one of the highest productions in terms of fruit and net return next to banana. In Sindh Pakistan grown in costal areas of about 1600 ha under cultivation with annual production 8000tonns. 3
4 CLASSIFICATION & BOTANY OF CROP Botanical name - Carica papaya Family : Caricaceae Caricaceae consist of 4 generas and 31 species. Carica -22 Facaratia -6 Farilla - 1 Cylicomorpha - 2 Edible fruits are only found in Carrica papaya. 2n = 18 4
5 BOTANICAL CLASSIFICATION OF PAPAYA (CARICA PAPAYA L.) Kingdom Subkingdom Superdivision Division Class Order Family Genus Species Plantae Plants Tracheobionta Vascular plants Spermatophyta Seed plants Magnoliophyta Flowering plants Magnoliopsida Dicotyledons Violales Caricaceae Papaya family Carica L. papaya Carica papaya L. papaya 5
6 PAPAYA IS A POWERHOUSE OF NUTRIENTS Papaya is a Neutraceutical plant having a wide range of Pharmacological Activities Nutritive values (fresh fruit and processed forms) Good source of β-carotene & Iron for lactating mothers Major sugars are Sucrose (48.3%), Glucose (29.8%) and Fructose (21.9%) Excellent source of Antioxidants, Ascorbic Acid and Minerals 6
7 NUTRITIVE VALUE (PER100GRAM EDIBLE PORTIONS) Water 90.8g Phosphorus 13.0mg Energy 32.8k cal Iron 0.5mg Protein 0.6g Carotene µg Fat 0.1g Thiamine 40.0 µg Carbohydr ates 7.2g Riboflavin µg Calcium 17.0mg Vit.C 57.0 g 7
8 LIFE OF PAPAYA Papaya can be productive for THREE years, Papain and yield reduces but can survive upto age of years and tree become too much tall. Fruit size become small after 3 years 8
9 CONT. 9
10 COMMERCIAL VALUE Widely used as fresh fruit and for use in drinks, Jam, jellies, ice-cream, pies and as dried and crystallized fruit. Papaya is used in cosmetic industry: White pulp of raw papaya improves pimples as well as wrinkles. Papaya work as good bleaching agent. Papain is used as meat tenderizer. 10
11 BASELINE The baseline is current status quo e.g. current conventional cropping, historical agricultural or environmental data and Risk Assessment of specific crop from its cultivated area. 11
12 AIM AND OBJECTIVES To collect baseline information about complete production technology of papaya in the Sindh province of Pakistan. To collect maximum information about cultural practices and neighboring crops including their weeds, wild relatives. To collect necessary information for an environmental risk assessment of Genetically Modified Papaya may be released into Pakistan. 12
13 MATERIALS & METHODS A survey form/questionare was designed which contain all the necessary information Data collected from different Papaya growing areas as per survey form/questionare 13
14 SURVEY FORM/QUESTIONARE INTERNATIONAL CENTER FOR CHEMICAL & BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES H.E.J.
