Comment on the book
It is here with us now (post harvest technologists, food technologists, entomologists, etc) at long last. This book is all you need to understand the types and activities of insect pests of stored products and up to date control measures, in the global context. The book gives the current problems faced in all the continents - Africa through South America to Asia and North America from authors with lots of experience. It is a "must have!!"
