Abstract: Agricultural products become important for various purposes. To sustain an adequate supply on the market, handling method, storage and transporting technologies of agricultural produce are imperative. Especially for perishable commodity, great attention should be given. Horticultural product must be transferred from the field to the table in a state that is acceptable to end users. In Oromia as whole, substantial amount of horticultures are believed to go waste before it reaches for users due to lack of proper handling and appropriate storage. Until damage occurred, mostly effect of mishandling and storage is not realized. However, poor handling and storage can easily result in total loss of agricultural produce.
