The changes of imidacloprid, pyraclostrobin, azoxystrobin and fipronil residues were studied to investigate the carryover of pesticide residues in winter jujube during paste processing. A multi-residue analytical method for winter jujube was developed based on the QuEChERS approach. The recoveries for the pesticides were between 87.5% and 116.2%. LODs ranged from 0.002 to 0.1 mg kg(-1). The processing factor (Pf) is defined as the ratio of pesticide residue concentration in the paste to that in winter jujube. Pf was higher than 1 for the removal of extra water, and other steps were generally less than 1, indicating that the whole process resulted in lower pesticide residue levels in paste. Peeling would be the critical step for pesticide removal. Processing factors varied among different pesticides studied. The results are useful to address optimisation of the processing techniques in a manner that leads to considerable pesticide residue reduction.

In order to improve the drying quality of winter jujube slices and find the best drying process parameters, RF + HA (radio frequency combined hot air) drying technology was used in this study to study the effects of plate spacing, RF application time, and RF interval time on the quality of winter jujube slices. Vitamin C () content, red and green value (), and drying rate () were used as quality indexes, and the changing trend of texture properties was analyzed. According to the conclusion of the single-factor experiment, the orthogonal experiment is carried out, and the parameters of each factor in the orthogonal experiment are optimized by the comprehensive balance method and matrix analysis method.

The study aimed to identify the host plants of the Dusky Cotton Bug (), in various agro-ecological zones of Sindh, Pakistan, 2019. Samples were collected bi-weekly within 20 km of the Cotton Agriculture Research Station in each district of Sindh. The pest population is categorized into three levels: below 25; 25 to 49 and 50 or more adults and nymphs.

Article Synopsis
- * The study investigated the impact of CP treatment durations (0, 5, and 10 minutes) on the quality and flavor of winter jujubes, focusing on factors like color, sugar content, and vitamins.
- * Results indicated that a 5-minute CP treatment effectively preserved red color, taste, and nutritional quality while slowing down respiration, suggesting its potential for enhancing postharvest storage.
