Fruits play a good role in nutritional security as well as generate high income to the growers. Pre-harvest factors have a great effect on postharvest quality of fruits. The combination of these factors includes genetic, environmental, cultural practices and physiological components. In this paper, we provide a review of studies on how pre-harvest factors influence the post quality of fruits. The influence of pre-harvest factors can be controlled by various cultural practices and high tech recent management practices. It was concluded by this study that understanding and managing pre-harvest factors properly will maintain the postharvest quality of fruits.
