<![CDATA[Bananas are climacteric fruits with high postharvest loss rates due to rapid ripening and spoilage under uncontrolled microclimate conditions. This study aims to develop a fuzzy logic-based system for predicting banana shelf life using real-time sensor data and a web dashboard interface. The research employed a quantitative descriptive method using the Mamdani fuzzy inference system in MATLAB, with input variables including temperature (°C), relative humidity (%), and ethylene concentration (µL/L). The output variable was shelf life, categorized as Fresh, Starting to Spoil, or Spoiled. Simulation results showed that optimal conditions (temperature 18°C, humidity 85%, ethylene 1 µL/L) yielded a defuzzification value of 0.853, indicating high freshness. Conversely, suboptimal conditions (temperature 20°C, humidity 70%, ethylene 0.1 µL/L) produced a value of 0.493, reflecting moderate freshness. The fuzzy logic system effectively modeled nonlinear relationships and uncertainty in sensor data, enabling adaptive shelf life prediction. These findings confirm that integrating fuzzy logic with microclimate sensors and dashboard visualization enhances decision-making in fruit storage management]]>
