Nano warehouse: A new concept for grain storage in India

With every bite you and I throw away, someone, somewhere in the world goes hungry. A report by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers on global food wastage states that 50 percent of all food produced around the world never reaches a human mouth. When a country like India is on its way to become a superpower and its reports say that this year´s production leaves the government with 75 million ton of grain on its hands but with amenities to store only 63 million ton in the staterun warehouses, millions of tons of crops could be left out in the open, exposed to rain and rodents, or stored in open spaces with only waterproof sheets to cover them. Over last decade the grain production has increased, but at present, numbers of warehouses are not sufficient to manage this increase. This paper presents an innovative idea of nano warehouse which can solve countries grain storage problem.
