Answer:
Grain is stored on platforms in heaps, in woven baskets or in bags. In humid countries fires may be lit under elevated platforms, to dry the produce and deter insects or other pests. Instead of being horizontal and flat, the platform may be conical in shape, the point at the bottom.
Farmers store grains in silos (metallic bins) or granaries (jute bags) in large scale production. This is done is order to prevent damage from pests like rats and insects. Introduction: The food grains obtained by harvesting the crops are dried in the sunshine before storing, to reduce the moisture content.
