The deterioration of wheat grains in terms of various quality parameters was observed during
storage in traditional and designed structures for 12 months. As a result of the laboratory analysis
and statistical data evaluation, protein (11.78%), lipid (2.4%), ash (1.76%) and starch (64.87%)
were found maximum in grain samples taken from straw-clay bin followed by concrete block
bin, ferrocement bin, earthen bin, bulk covered and room type store after 12 months of storage.
The highest moisture (15.12%), insect-damage (26%), fungi (25%) and aflatoxin (13.3 μg kg-1)
was observed in grains stored in room store followed by bulk covered, earthen bin, ferrocement
bin, concrete bin and straw-clay bin.
