पशुओं से अधिकतम दुग्धउत्पादन प्राप्त करने के लिए उन्हें प्रर्याप्त मात्रा में पौषिटक चारे की आवश्यकता होती है। इन चारों को पशुपालक या तो स्वयं उगाता हैं या फिर कहीं और से खरीद कर लाता है। चारे को अधिकांशत: हरी अवस्था में पशुओं को खिलाया जाता है तथा इसकी अतिरिक्त मात्रा को सुखाकर भविष्य में प्रयोग करने के लिए भंडारण कर लिया जाता है। ताकि चारे की कमी के समय उसका प्रयोग पशुओं को खिलाने के लिए किया जा सके। इस तरह से भंडारण करने से उसमें पोषक तत्व बहुत कम रह जाते है। इसी चारे का भंडा़रण यदि वैज्ञानिक तरीके से किया जाये तो उसकी पौषिटकता में कोर्इ कमी...

The post-harvest damage caused during storage is mainly due to infestation by storage pest causes huge quality losses in food grains combined with economic losses. This damage may be due to direct feeding of grains by insects and pests or by microbiological agents like fungi and bacteria. The post-harvest losses of food grains and oilseeds are estimated to be 10 to 20 per cent in India (Chahal, 2011).  India experiences severe losses in storage of food grains, as per...

There are significant losses at all these stages.  The most economically important step in case of the cereals like wheat is the storage of the grain produce. Storage is the interim phase in the chain of transporting agricultural products from farmers to consumers. Losses during the storage constitute a significant share of food grain loss in post production operations.
