heya!!



here is your answer ⬇️


storage of grains is an important task , because we don't consume the entire crop at a time. farmers store the food and wait for the reasonable market price.


there are different storage practices in our state.

naturally food produce can be damaged by fungi , pests, rats , and bacteria. if moisture is also there in the grains it helps to develop moulds. such grains neither germinates npr suitable to eat.

to over come this problem farmers dry the grains for 2 to 3 days in sun. after drying they keep the grains in a jute bags and preserve them in godown.


few decades ago , farmers used to store the grains in metallic and bamboo bins.

now a days, specific chemical treatments are employed for storage of grains in order to protect them from pests and micro organisms


it is a cold storage unit . here the vegetables , fruits, tamarind, chillies and other products that Are usually damaged and decoloured within a short time are stored.


as the temperature is very low, here the vegetables and fruits can be kept for a longer time in the cold storage units.
