The physical properties of Jamun fruits (Syzyiumcumini L.) obtained from the Akola market were determined. The objective of this study was to determine some physical properties of Jamun fruit in order to facilitate the design of some machines for its processing.The wet basis moisture content of Jamun fruits was found to be 71.11 %. The fresh fruit weight, size, arithmetic mean diameter, sphericity, surface area, bulk density, true density, porosity, pulp content and seed content were varied in the range of 3.09 to 6.35 g, 16.06 to 24.07 mm, 16.71 to 24.21 mm, 0.81 to 0.95, 86.5 to 181.92 mm2 , 0.464 to 0.507 g/cc, 0.83 to 1.25 g/cc, 41.05 to 60.65%, 53.15 to 80.27% and 17.32 to 38.44%, respectively. This study showed considerable variation in some physical properties of Jamun fruit. These properties can be useful for designing and fabricating for handling, transporting, processing and storage equipment of Jamun fruit.
