| Abstract: | Modernization of Indian agriculture has caused extinction of several
Indigenous agricultural practices which once played a vital role in bringing
down the dependency of our farmers. Preservation of food grains through
indigenous methods is considered as one of the most important traditional ways
in our Indian agriculture from time immemorial. The objective of the paper is to
rejuvenate the vanished grain storage structures which have been in vogue until
recent times, as one of the measures to meet out the challenges posed by
globalization. |
