Inland Cold-Chain Logistics in India: Key Challenges in Preserving Moisture-Sensitive Pulses

Cold-Chain Management for High-Value Pulses

Moisture-sensitive pulse crops, such as chickpeas, green mung, and pigeon peas, are susceptible to weight loss and pest infestation when stored in standard warehouses under high ambient temperatures. Managing the storage and transit environment is key to preserving crop quality.

# Humidity Control in Storage and Transit

Fluctuations in relative humidity during storage can cause seeds to absorb excess moisture or dry out. Both scenarios impact product quality, leading to mold growth or brittle seeds that split during handling.
