In fact, respiration is a ( 6 ) self-accelerating process. The moisture produced during respiration can increase the moisture content of the product which in turn will create favourable conditions for ( 7 ) fungus growth. Normally the respiration rate of well-dried products with a low moisture content, such as ( 8 ) cereals, beans and sowing seed is extremely low and therefore no rise in temperature will occur spontaneously. Consequently the storage temperature is not of such great importance, provided the products are stored as ( 9 ) cool as possible. This can be achieved in the following way:
Leave artificially dried products to cool first before storing them
The storage room should have a large overhanging roof of such a size that the walls are always in the ( 10 ) shade.
