A Comparison of Lycopene and Other Phytochemicals in Tomatoes Grown Under Conventional and Organic Management Systems
Heidi M Lumpkin
The objectives of this study were to 1) develop a protocol for the selection of organic and conventional farm pairs to be used in comparative trials for determining the effects of management practices on the development of the secondary plant metabolites; and 2) to compare lycopene, B-carotene and other antioxidant concentrations between tomatoes grown under conventional production practices with those grown under organic practices.
