These actors more often face post-harvest losses, degraded product quality for further use, and most frequently face problems of keeping grains in a healthy environment for a long time. In order to keep the quality of grains stored intact for a long time, the Nepal Warehousing Company Ltd has brought the solution by installing high-quality silos of 55,000 MT capacity at three different places in province number 1, province number 2, and in Lumbini province.
