Question

Discuss the importance of neem in seed storage?

Answer in Brief

Solution

Cereals, pulses, oilseeds, etc. are very important products for storage. A safe storage place must be provided for the grain produced until it is needed for consumption and multiplication purposes. Since grain production is seasonal, and consumption is continuous, safe storage must maintain grain quality and quantity. This means that grains have to be protected from weather, molds and other microorganisms, moisture, destructively huge temperatures, insects, rodents, birds, objectionable odors and contamination, and from unauthorized distribution.
