The B-carotene value of vegetables was evaluated using chemical analysis and hyperspectral remote sensing data methods. The computational results were validated via chemical analysis methods. The evaluation of vegetables composition of Jelly chocolate was carried out using chemical produces which was tedious and required long time. The spectra of vegetables were acquired by ASD spectroradiometer. The chemical extraction was performed and the spectra of vegetables were acquired by ASD spectroradiometer. The term Beta-carotene is used for several related substances having the formula C40H56 which are synthesized by plants but cannot be made by animals. Carotene is an orange photosynthetic pigment important for photosynthesis. Carotenes are responsible for the orange color of the carrot and many other fruits and vegetables. Beta-carotene is composed of two retinol groups, and is broken down in the mucosa of the small intestine by Beta-carotene deoxygenize to retinal, a form of vitamin A. These vegetables contains chiefly Beta-carotene which is precursor of Vitamin-A. Vitamin A deficiency and mal-nutrition especially in child. Due to the lack of Awareness, Improper processing of vegetables, Low keeping quality, Lack of refrigerators, Lack of electricity. Waste vegetables are the major problem for rural area. Waste vegetables contain sufficient quantities of Beta-carotenes. The computed model was based on a correlation study between reflected spectra and vegetables contents. Waste vegetables collected from market and Beta-carotene estimated by column chromatography technique. Estimated Beta carotene was use in fruit jelly chocolate for child nutrition to avoid Vitamin A deficiency.
