Why is drying grains after harvesting necessary?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To reduce moisture and prevent fungal growth and spoilage

Grains retain some moisture after harvesting. Excess moisture encourages fungi, insects and microorganisms, which can spoil the grain and make it unsuitable for storage. Drying lowers the moisture content and helps preserve grains safely. Darkening the colour is not the purpose of drying. Exam tip: Link grain drying with low moisture and safe storage.
