Abstract: Described herein, in some embodiments, are systems and methods for optimizing a press cycle for producing one or more press cuts from a harvested fruit/vegetable. In some embodiments, optimizing the press cycle includes optimizing the quality of the juice by identifying and controlling specific pressing parameters to produce the maximum volume of the highest quality juice for every press cut identified by the system and/or the individual components responsible for the juice production. The system might identify the pressing factors for optimum performance using historical juice data from current and prior harvests, laboratory results from the actual juice analysis, other current or past harvest data, and information from juice post processing that are integrated into mathematical models enabling the system and/or process owners to predict certain finished product characteristics from the pressing operations.
