| Abstract: | Indigenous
knowledge is the accumulated knowledge, skills and technology of the local
people, derived from the direct interaction of human beings and their
environment. An investigation was undertaken to document the indigenous post harvest
technologies in pulses. The study was conducted in dry farming tracts of Tamil
Nadu. Documentation of indigenous storage technologies was done by direct
interview and group discussion methods. In this paper, the indigenous storage
practices adopted by the dry land farmers were identified and documented. |
