Options:
Dehumidification
Desiccation
Drying
Ventilation
📌Other Options Explanations:
-B. Desiccation is a broader term that refers to the removal of moisture from any substance.
-C. Drying is a crucial step in post-harvest management of agricultural produce. It is the process of reducing the moisture content of crops to a level safe for storage, transport, and further processing. By removing excess moisture, drying inhibits microbial growth and spoilage, thereby extending the shelf life of produce.D. Ventilation: Proper ventilation plays a crucial role in maintaining the quality and extending the shelf life of agricultural produce after harvest. It ensures the exchange of air within the storage environment, removing excess moisture, heat, and harmful gases while replenishing oxygen levels.
