Part 1 of this collection assesses the causes of postharvest losses. Part 2 reviews advances in storage technologies, including management of insect pests using techniques such as fumigation, controlled atmospheres and biopesticides, as well as control of fungal contamination.
Post-harvest losses of cereals and other grains, whether from spoilage microorganisms or insect pests, remain a significant issue in both the developed and developing world. Challenges include restrictions on chemicals for decontamination and increasing levels of insect resistance.

Advances in postharvest management of cereals and grains provides a comprehensive review of the latest research on the causes of postharvest cereal losses, as well as the key research on the detection and control of fungal contaminants. This collection includes authoritative discussions led by leading experts on the viability of different technologies implemented to control postharvest losses, such as fumigation, biopesticides, controlled atmospheres and control of fungal contamination.

Dr Dirk E. Maier is a Professor and Postharvest Engineer at Iowa State University, USA. Professor Maier is the Founding Director of the Consortium for Innovation in Post-Harvest Loss and Food Waste Reduction. He leads this global innovation partnership aimed at sustainably providing safe and nutritious food for a growing world population. Professor Maier has received a number of awards, guided many students and scholars in their research, and published widely on postharvest management of cereals, with a particular focus on quality preservation and loss prevention and reduction.

Professor Shlomo Navarro is the principal inventor of technologies that are environmentally user friendly for the protection of food without detrimental chemical pesticides and promoted by Food Technology International Consultancy (FTIC) Ltd. Professor Navarro was previously a Principal Scientist in the Department of Food Science, Israel Agricultural Research Organization (ARO), Volcani Center, Israel. He is a worldwide expert in the postharvest protection of durable commodities with specific emphasis on insect control and storage engineering technology. He is the leading authority on postharvest technologies, on chilling and aeration systems for grain storage, in the application of modified atmospheres, and hermetic storage in semi-permanent plastic storage structures for use with pulses, grains, seeds, oil seeds, dried fruits, processed foods, and other stable bulk products that need protection from insects, mites and mold damage. From 2001-2007, Professor Navarro served as Convener of the International Organisation for Biological and Integrated Control of Noxious Animals and Plants (IOBC) on Integrated Protection of Stored Products. He has edited five books of proceedings of the IOBC. Professor Naresh Magan completed his BSc (Hons) Botany and MSc (Plant Pathology) at Exeter University. He completed his PhD at Rothamsted Research (external student Reading University) in 1982 and was awarded his DSc in 2013 for his work on mycotoxins in food chains. He holds the Chair in Applied Mycology at Cranfield University and has carried out research on food security/safety and spoilage fungi for 35+ years.
