Abstract

This guide describes ways of mixing insecticidal powders with grains and pulses just before they are stored in order to prevent damage by insects. lt is a guide for the extension worker to help him introduce the methods to farmers. The pictures with descriptions on the right-hand pages show the steps involved. The left-hand pages give a more detailed explanation of the methods. The methods described in this guide apply only to grain that the farmer is going to eat and not to grain he keeps for seed.
