Control of moisture content and temperature during storage is critical to preserving the nutritional and economic value of farm crops as they move from the field to the market. Fungi (mold) and insects feed on poorly stored crops and reduce crop quality. Relative humidity and temperature affect mold and insect growth, which is reduced to a minimum if the crop is kept cooler than 10°C and if the relative humidity of the air in equilibrium with the stored crop is less than 60%
