☢️hi mate........

It is advised to put some dried neem leaves in an iron drum because the leaves give a smell to the wheat that acts as an insecticide and keeps the pests away from the drum containing wheat.

Stored food grains are prone to attack by insects, pathogens and other rodents. Storing food grains along with neem leaves repels the insects attacking the food grains.

Neem leaves act as insecticide during storage.

Dear friend, Dried neem leaves are used for storing foodgrains because they absorb moisture from them.

Hope it helps u.....
