Post-harvest management in wheat

  • Yellow and dry straw is visual indicator.
  • Shredding, breaking of spikes are overripe.
  • Most suitable stage is grain moisture of 13-14 %.
  • Manually harvested by reapers is dried for 3-4 days on threshing floor and threshed.
  • Always store the seed in new bags in godowns and should be fumigated to keep the attack of stored grain pests.
  • Grains with less than 10 to 11 % moisture store well.
