This book was released on 2012 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pakistan Produces about 24 million tons of wheat annually. Out of this 6-7 million tons are procured by the Government and stored in its warehouses located throughout the country. The larger quantities are stored by the farming community for their food, feed and seed requirements. The storage of food grain is not well established in the country and the farmers, traders and the Government largely rely on traditional warehousing and practices. The use of silos at public sector and farm level is only negligible. All most all the grain is stored in bags with the exception of few bulk storage traditional farm level facilities. This results in massive quantitative and qualitative losses to the country. The major short-coming in this regard are poor sanitary condition, leaky and poorly maintained godowns and ill trained storage officials. The purpose of the present study is to assess the fumigability of the different types of godowns used for storage of wheat and draw guidelines for pest control. The study also includes understanding of the public sector grain storage problems, covering all important types of storage structures used in the country

Download or read book Insect Pests of Stored Grain written by Ranjeet Kumar and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-07-06 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stored products of agriculture and animal origin are attacked by more than 600 species of beetles, 70 species of moths, and about 355 species of mites, causing huge quantitative and qualitative losses and insect contamination in food commodities. This is an important quality control problem. This book, Insect Pests of Stored Grain: Biology, Behavior, and Management Strategies, provides comprehensive coverage of stored product entomology for the sustainable management of insects and other noninsect pests, such as mites, birds, rodents, and fungi, with the aim to mitigate and eliminate these losses of food from grains. The author, who has studied sustainable and herbal management of stored grain and seed insect pests in his research, considers sustainable management of stored grain insect pests and eco-friendly approaches along with the utilization of waste materials. Starting with a history of stored product entomology from the beginning to the modern era in detail along with an introduction of storage entomology, the book then goes on to cover a range of important issues, including Significant developments in the field of storage entomology Classification and identification of important stored grain insects Major stored product coleopteran and lepidopteran insects that infest stored commodities Estimation of losses caused by stored grain insect pests Factors responsible for infestation of stored grain insects Different storage structures Alternative methods for the management of stored grain insects by utilization of behavior modification techniques or utilization of secondary metabolites of plants Fumigation of stored grains for the protection of infestation Insect Pests of Stored Grain: Biology, Behavior, and Management Strategies covers a vast amount of valuable information on stored product entomology for the sustainable management of insects and other noninsect pests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to assess, evaluate and critically analyze the methods that are currently available for a judicious pest management in durable food. It presents and analyzes a vast amount of methods that are already in use in “real world” industrial applications. After the phase-out of methyl bromide, but also the withdrawal of several insecticides and the continuously updated food safety regulations, there is a significant knowledge gap on the use of risk-reduced, ecologically-compatible control methods that can be used with success against stored-product insect species and related arthropods. The importance of integrated pest management (IPM) is growing, but the concept as practiced for stored products might differ from IPM as historically developed for field crops. This book discusses a wide variety of control strategies used for stored product management and describes some of the IPM components. The editors included chemical and non-chemical methods, as both are essential in IPM. They set the scene for more information regarding emerging issues in stored product protection, such as emerging, alien and invasive species as threats for global food security, as well as the importance of stored-product arthropods for human health. Finally, the analysis of the economics of stored product protection is presented, from theory to practice.
