India seeks improved grain storage amid record harvests
Agriculture Department official John B. Parker Jr. from the Economic Research Service notes India faces high grain losses from pests from field to use. He cites 10 million metric tons yearly losses recently, with 2 million in-field losses, while modern warehouses lose only 1 to 3 percent. The key issue is farm storage facilities with losses above 10 percent.
