Small-scale farmer utilisation of diatomaceous earths during storage: could fossil dusts be an option for increasing food security in sub-Saharan Africa?
The efficacy of the food-grade DE will be assessed on chickpeas for up to 9 weeks during the 2021 grain storage season from March to May. Farmers find it difficult to store these grains since they are highly susceptible to insect storage pests.
8 Απρ 2019 · Some studies reported that Dry storage using Diatomaceous earth (DE) enable farmers to store maize and maintain quality. To test the effects of natural DE on stored maize grains quality,...
1 Απρ 1998 · Diatomaceous earth is a dust varying in color depending on composition, from white–grey to yellow to red. The dust base is made of the dead bodies of diatoms of various shapes and size. The active ingredient, or basic substance, is amorphous silicon dioxide.
Diatomaceous earth (DE, otherwise known as diatomite) is a very important natural material used in industry comprising distinctive combinations of physical and chemical properties. Typically, it is a soft, friable, fine-grained, weakly cemented, porous, and light-weight sedimentary siliceous rock.
