Tomatoes are an agricultural commodity that is susceptible to spoilage, with a limited shelf life if not stored under optimal conditions. Optimizing tomato storage time is very important for improving product quality and reducing waste in distribution. This study aims to implement the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm in predicting the optimal storage time for tomatoes, taking into account environmental factors such as temperature and humidity, as well as tomato ripeness. The dataset used consists of tomato images taken at various ripeness levels, as well as environmental data during storage. The SVM model was trained to classify tomato ripeness conditions and predict the optimal storage duration before significant quality deterioration occurs. The results of the study show that the SVM model has high accuracy in classifying tomato ripeness and can be used to predict the optimal storage time, which in turn can extend the shelf life of tomatoes and reduce crop waste. This research contributes to more efficient and sustainable tomato post-harvest management.
