Dear Moderator
Quite often food ? is being preharvest makes for post harvesting with process of ripening in fruits, and moisture management in RICE and Wheat ?? crops.
Another recent days harvester harvest the Rice on fields, leaving straw. For this process it's necessary with certain ripened RICE.That indicates moisture leftover which is not fit for immediate sale in market or Miller's.
For most developing countries don't have ag infrastructure, this includes India.
Fact is that during harvest time climate disasters appears, and total grain become wetty on ground, sprouts which will not only loss to farmers but also food wastage.
To overcome this there are two suggestions.... For RICE ? on harvest use the straw like a thread structure which very thick,and it like a well on ground level, fill theses rice leaving some time. So moisture levels increased, by the time little market Rush, obtain good price.
Second option is dig a pit upto 10 quintal lot's and cover the Rice straw layer and leave it even for one year, had no problem of storage, and food is fully secured. , It can have much higher price besides tasty food. Public deserve it.
Structure and design available on request.
This is a simple cost effective solution to small farmers who are at large in food production in developing countries.
Second item ... For fruits.. for chemical free and natural ripening by fully straw covered on fruits and kept in closed house, which will ripen by the heat generated through straw systems.
This application not only additional value with nature keep storage at lesser cost.
No need to shout on government or office's. Agriculture is livelihood., Which one had to maintain it rather than mechine or mechanisation. Diviginally degital mode ? application of storage for longer time, climate smart application. The other added advantage is If in pit methods, free from ??.
