The nutritive value of real fruit beverages is far greater than of synthetic products which are at present being bottled and sold in large quantities through out the country. If real fruit juice could be substituted for these synthetic preparation, it would be a boom to the consumer as well as the fruit grower. There is, therefore, great scope in the country for the production of fruit juices and other fruit-based beverages.
