Why should Grains be dried before storage?
Answers
Answer:
If freshly harvested grains are stored without drying they may get spoilt or attacked by microorganisms, loosing their germination capacity. Hence, before storing them the grains are properly dried in the sun to reduce moisture in them. This prevents the attack by insects, pests, bacteria and fungi.
Grains themselves require moisture to respire hence preventing ripening. ... When they are devoid of this moisture they enter a state of dormancy and can be stored for extended periods of time due to the fact that during dormancy their metabolic activity decreases.
