Winnowing

Explanation:

Winnowing is an agricultural method developed by ancient cultures for separating grain from straw. It can also be used to remove pests from stored grain. Winnowing usually follows threshing in grain preparation.

Winnowing involves throwing the mixture into the air so that the wind blows away the lighter chaff, while the heavier grains fall back down for recovery. The process also includes use of some tools like winnowing fan or winnowing fork/shovel.
