Post-Harvest Damage to Food Grains by Insects: A Review
Abstract: Post-harvest loss of food grains is a significant concern that affects food security, economic stability, and sustainable agriculture.

This paper provides a comprehensive review of the types of insects that cause post-harvest damage, their biology and behaviour, the impact of infestation on grain quality and quantity, and effective management practices to mitigate their effects.
