[0002] On-tree preservation involves a series of technical treatments to delay the fruit's ripening and aging process while preserving its quality and marketability. This method saves storage space and eliminates the need for storage. However, existing methods for preserving wolfberry fruit on the tree make it difficult to identify and analyze the wolfberries on the branches before placing them in mesh bags. This makes it difficult to determine whether the fruit on the branches is healthy or damaged, making it difficult to remind staff to remove damaged fruit from the branches. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a method for processing wolfberry fruits during the tree-retention period.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] A method for processing wolfberry fruit during its tree-retention period, the method comprising the following steps:

[0006] Obtaining information about wolfberry fruits on wolfberry branches that are in a color-changing period, analyzing and processing the wolfberry fruit information to obtain a quality value, and retaining healthy wolfberries on the wolfberry branches based on the quality value;

[0007] Put the wolfberry branches into a mesh bag and record the growth information of healthy wolfberries, the growth information including quantity information and quality information, and then tie the mesh bag tightly;

[0008] The quantity and quality information of the wolfberries in the mesh bag are analyzed and processed to obtain the wolfberry status value;

[0009] The growth status of wolfberries inside the mesh bag can be judged by the wolfberry status value.

[0010] Preferably, the wolfberry fruit information includes color information, shape information and smell information, and the color information, shape information and smell information are taken and marked to obtain a color value YSZ, a shape value XZZ and a first smell value QWZ.

[0011] Preferably, the quality value ZLZ is calculated by a first calculation formula ZLZ=a1×YSZ+a2×XZZ+a3×QWZ; wherein a1, a2, and a3 are different proportional factors and are greater than zero.

[0012] Preferably, healthy wolfberries are retained on the wolfberry branches according to the quality value, specifically:

[0013] Compare the quality value ZLZ with the threshold quality value ZLY:

[0014] If the quality value ZLZ ≥ the threshold quality value ZLY, the wolfberry fruit on the wolfberry branch is a healthy wolfberry;

[0015] If the quality value ZLZ is less than the threshold quality value ZLY, the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branch are unhealthy wolfberries, and the unhealthy wolfberries on the wolfberry branch are removed.

[0016] Preferably, the quality information includes fullness information, second smell information and wolfberry fruit size information, and the fullness information, second smell information and wolfberry fruit size information are taken and marked to obtain the fullness value BMD, the second smell value QEZ and the size value DXZ.

[0017] Preferably, the quantity information is taken and marked to obtain a quantity value SLZ;

[0018] The wolfberry status value ZTZ is calculated by the second calculation formula ZTZ=b1×BMD+b2×QEZ+b3×DXZ; wherein b1, b2, and b3 are different proportional factors and are greater than zero.

[0019] Preferably, the growth of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is judged by the wolfberry status value, specifically:

[0020] Compare the wolfberry status value ZTZ with the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ:

[0021] If the wolfberry status value ZTZ ≥ the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ, the growth condition of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is good;

[0022] If the wolfberry status value ZTZ is less than the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ, the growth condition of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is poor.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. In the present invention, a mesh bag is used to cover the wolfberry branches. The mesh bag is used to cover the wolfberry branches from the bottom. The mesh bag can cover 3-10 wolfberries at a time. In addition, bagging the entire branch is easier to operate and faster than hanging a single one, thereby improving efficiency. Afterwards, the color change date and the number of fruits on the branch are clearly written on a sign, and the bag is placed in the mesh bag, and the mesh bag mouth is tied. At the same time, the mesh bag can prevent birds from pecking at the wolfberry fruits used in the experiment, and can also prevent passers-by and objects from knocking off the wolfberry fruits. Whether the wolfberry fruits have fallen off can be clearly seen through the transparent mesh bag, and data can be directly recorded. By using the mesh bag to cover the wolfberries and leaving them on the tree, the method can be achieved to delay the fruit ripening and aging process without reducing the fruit quality and commercial value. This method has the advantages of not taking up storage space, eliminating the storage link, and reducing fruit damage. For wolfberry, the tree-keeping technology prolongs the fruit's tree-keeping period, makes centralized and mechanical harvesting more convenient, reduces labor and time costs, greatly improves harvesting efficiency, and increases economic benefits.

[0025] 2. In the present invention, by obtaining the information of wolfberry fruits in the color change period on the wolfberry branches, and retaining the healthy wolfberries on the wolfberry branches according to the quality value, it is possible to judge whether the wolfberries on the wolfberry branches are damaged by the quality value. If the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are healthy wolfberries, the wolfberry fruits are retained on the wolfberry branches. If the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are damaged fruits, the staff removes the wolfberry fruits from the wolfberry branches.

[0026] 3. In the present invention, a mesh bag is used to cover the wolfberry branches and the growth information of healthy wolfberries is recorded. The wolfberry status value ZTZ is calculated by the second calculation formula ZTZ=b1×BMD+b2×QEZ+b3×DXZ. The wolfberry status value is obtained by recording the growth information of healthy wolfberries and analyzing the growth information of wolfberry fruits. The growth condition of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is then judged by the wolfberry status value. When it is found that the growth condition of the wolfberries is poor, the wolfberry fruits inside the mesh bag need to be removed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Figure 1 The present invention provides a flow chart of a method for processing wolfberry fruits during the tree-retaining period. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] Reference Figure 1 shown.

[0029] The embodiment further illustrates the method for processing wolfberry fruit during the tree-retention period proposed by the present invention.

[0030] A method for processing wolfberry fruit during its tree-retention period, the method comprising the following steps:

[0031] Obtaining information about wolfberry fruits on wolfberry branches that are in a color-changing period, analyzing and processing the wolfberry fruit information to obtain a quality value, and retaining healthy wolfberries on the wolfberry branches based on the quality value;

[0032] Put the wolfberry branches into the mesh bag and record the growth information of healthy wolfberries, including quantity information and quality information, and then tie the mesh bag tightly;

[0033] The quantity and quality information of the wolfberries in the mesh bag are analyzed and processed to obtain the wolfberry status value;

[0034] The growth status of wolfberries inside the mesh bag can be judged by the wolfberry status value.

[0035] The present invention obtains information of wolfberry fruits in the color-changing period on wolfberry branches, and retains healthy wolfberries on the wolfberry branches according to quality values. Therefore, it is possible to judge whether the wolfberries on the wolfberry branches are damaged by the quality values. If the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are healthy, the wolfberry fruits are retained on the wolfberry branches. If the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are damaged, the staff removes the wolfberry fruits from the wolfberry branches.

[0036] The staff will keep the healthy wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches, and then put the wolfberry branches into a mesh bag. The size of the mesh bag is 10cm wide and 30cm long. There is a transparent mesh bag with a drawstring at the mouth of the mesh bag. The mesh bag is put on the wolfberry branches from the bottom. The mesh bag can hold 3-10 wolfberries at a time, and bagging the whole branch is easier and faster than hanging a single one, thus improving efficiency. Afterwards, the color change date and the number of fruits on the branch are clearly written on the mark, put them into the mesh bag, and tie the opening of the mesh bag.

[0037] The mesh bag covers the wolfberry branches to prevent birds from pecking at the berries used in the experiment, and also prevents passers-by and objects from knocking the berries off. The transparent mesh bag makes it easy to see whether the berries have fallen off, allowing for direct data recording.

[0038] By enclosing goji berries in a mesh net and leaving them on the tree, the ripening and aging process can be delayed without compromising fruit quality or marketability. This method saves storage space, eliminates the need for storage steps, and reduces fruit damage. For goji berries, this on-tree preservation technique prolongs the fruit's lifespan, facilitates centralized and mechanical harvesting, reduces labor and time costs, significantly improves harvesting efficiency, and increases economic benefits.

[0039] The present invention records the growth information of healthy wolfberries and obtains a wolfberry status value by analyzing and processing the growth information of wolfberry fruits. The growth condition of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is then judged by the wolfberry status value. When it is found that the growth condition of the wolfberries is poor, the wolfberry fruits inside the mesh bag need to be removed.

[0040] The wolfberry fruit information includes color information, shape information and smell information. The color information, shape information and smell information are taken and marked to obtain a color value YSZ, a shape value XZZ and a first smell value QWZ.

[0041] It is worth noting that since the wolfberry trees are planted inside the orchard and cameras are installed inside the orchard, the color and shape information of the wolfberries can be captured by the cameras.

[0042] It is worth noting that if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches rot, they will emit a foul smell. Since the wolfberry branches are equipped with odor sensors, the odor sensors can be used to determine whether the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches have a foul smell due to rot.

[0043] If the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are of normal color, the color value YSZ is 6; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are of abnormal color, the color value YSZ is 2; if the shape of the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches is normal, the shape value XZZ is 5; if the shape of the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches is abnormal, the shape value XZZ is 1; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches have a normal smell, the first smell value QWZ is 8; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches have a smelly smell, the first smell value QWZ is 2.

[0044] The mass value ZLZ is calculated using the first calculation formula ZLZ=a1×YSZ+a2×XZZ+a3×QWZ, wherein a1, a2, and a3 are different proportional factors and are greater than zero.

[0045] It should be noted that here the values of a1, a2, and a3 are set to 1. When the color value YSZ is 2, the shape value XZZ is 5, and the first odor value QWZ is 8, the quality value ZLZ is calculated as 15 using the first calculation formula ZLZ = a1 × YSZ + a2 × XZZ + a3 × QWZ.

[0046] When the color value YSZ is 6, the shape value XZZ is 5, and the first odor value QWZ is 8, the quality value ZLZ is calculated as 19 using the first calculation formula ZLZ=a1×YSZ+a2×XZZ+a3×QWZ.

[0047] Keep healthy goji berries on goji berry branches according to quality values, specifically:

[0048] Compare the quality value ZLZ with the threshold quality value ZLY:

[0049] If the quality value ZLZ ≥ the threshold quality value ZLY, the wolfberry fruit on the wolfberry branch is a healthy wolfberry;

[0050] Here, the threshold quality value ZLY is set to 16. When the quality value ZLZ is 19, since the quality value ZLZ> the threshold quality value ZLY, the wolfberry fruit on the wolfberry branch is a healthy wolfberry, and thus the wolfberry fruit is retained on the wolfberry branch.

[0051] If the quality value ZLZ is less than the threshold quality value ZLY, the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branch are unhealthy wolfberries, and the unhealthy wolfberries on the wolfberry branch are removed.

[0052] Here, the threshold quality value ZLY is set to 16. When the quality value ZLZ is 15, since the quality value ZLZ is less than the threshold quality value ZLY, the wolfberry fruit on the wolfberry branch is a healthy wolfberry, and thus the wolfberry fruit is removed from the wolfberry branch.

[0053] The quality information includes fullness information, second smell information and wolfberry fruit size information. The fullness information, second smell information and wolfberry fruit size information are taken and marked to obtain the fullness value BMD, the second smell value QEZ and the size value DXZ.

[0054] It should be noted that if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are in a normal full state, the fullness value BMD is 10; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are in a shriveled state, the fullness value BMD is 10; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches emit a normal odor, the second odor value QEZ is 10; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches emit a foul odor, the second odor value QEZ is 1; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are in the normal size range, the size value DXZ is 10; if the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches are in a relatively small state, the size value DXZ is 1.

[0055] The quantity information is taken and marked to obtain the quantity value SLZ;

[0056] It should be noted that the number of wolfberries on the wolfberry branches is counted and recorded through the quantity value SLZ, so that the quantity value of the wolfberry fruits on the wolfberry branches can be recorded in real time.

[0057] The wolfberry status value ZTZ is calculated by the second calculation formula ZTZ=b1×BMD+b2×QEZ+b3×DXZ; wherein b1, b2, and b3 are different proportional factors and are greater than zero.

[0058] It should be noted that the values of b1, b2, and b3 are set to 1 here. When the value of the fullness value BMD is 10, the value of the fullness value BMD is 10, and the value of the second odor value QEZ is 1, the wolfberry status value ZTZ is calculated to be 21 by the second calculation formula ZTZ = b1×BMD+b2×QEZ+b3×DXZ.

[0059] When the fullness value BMD is 10, the fullness value BMD is 10, and the second odor value QEZ is 10, the wolfberry state value ZTZ is calculated to be 30 by the second calculation formula ZTZ=b1×BMD+b2×QEZ+b3×DXZ.

[0060] The growth of wolfberries inside the mesh bag is judged by the wolfberry status value, specifically:

[0061] Compare the wolfberry status value ZTZ with the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ:

[0062] If the wolfberry status value ZTZ ≥ the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ, the growth condition of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is good;

[0063] It should be noted that the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ is set to 25 here. When the wolfberry status value ZTZ is 30, since the wolfberry status value ZTZ> the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ, the growth condition of the wolfberry inside the mesh bag is good, that is, the wolfberry fruit is retained inside the mesh bag.

[0064] If the wolfberry status value ZTZ is less than the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ, the growth condition of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is poor.

[0065] It should be noted that the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ is set to 25 here. When the wolfberry status value ZTZ is 21, since the wolfberry status value ZTZ is less than the wolfberry status threshold ZYZ, the growth condition of the wolfberries inside the mesh bag is poor, and the wolfberry fruits are removed from the mesh bag.

[0066] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. All technical solutions based on the concept of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, various improvements and modifications that do not depart from the principles of the present invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
