Introduction

Food grains are essential dietary components that consist of various nutrients (including vitamins, minerals, protein, and carbohydrates) required for a healthy life and growth of the human body. Rice, Wheat, Maize, millets, and sorghum are some of the major grown and consuming grains in day-to-day diet. These grains are consumed mostly on a regular basis while the cultivation periods or seasons are fixed. The food grains are stored after harvesting for consumption up to the next harvesting cycle of the crops. Storage and transport operations up to the consumer are critical tasks. Insects infestation is the dominating factor in the reduction of quantity, and quality of stored grains. Also, the nutritive value of food grains reduces due to insect infestation. Moisture is a leading factor to boost insects and pests activities like breading and spread which led to spoilage.
