प्रश्न
As an incharge of a grain store, how will you find out the presence of pests ?
उत्तर
The rise in temperature of stored food grains indicates the growth of moulds and fungi. Ideally, the temperature of the stored food grains lies below 30°C as insects and microorganisms are less active at lower temperature. Therefore, one can check the temperature of the grains to see whether or not pests are present
