example, if we pass only HIGH inputs to the NAND gate then its output will be LOW, otherwise if one of the
inputs is LOW the output will become HIGH.

Storage pest and its control is a topic from food storage engineering. The presentation gives clear picture about which all insects, pest that can cause damages to the food during storage and its preventive measures. It also has a brief explanation on Fumigations and Seed Coating.
Stored product insect pest:
Primary grain pests attack the whole grain. The eggs are laid inside the grain, before the larvae mature inside the grain and then chew their way out. Some of these pests include the Lesser grain borer, Granary weevil (Sitophilus granarius, the Wheat weevil) and Rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae).
Stored product insect pest Cereal grain products and other foods stored in kitchen cabinets, pantries or other areas in the home may become infested with insects or other organisms.
These food invaders are commonly referred to as "pantry pests."
Nearly all dry, stored human food products as well as dry pet food and birdseed are susceptible.
Pantry pests eat and contaminate the products, rendering them useless for consumption and can leave infested foods to crawl or fly around the house.
When this happens, they become an annoyance for many people.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. INTRODUCTION OF EXTERNAL FEEDERS
Stored-grain insects are known
as “internal feeders” if they feed
within the kernels, otherwise they
are referred to as “external
feeders.”
External feeders (or “bran
bugs”) that feed on grain dusts,
cracked kernels, and grain debris
without entering the kernel,
include Indian meal moth, red and
confused flour beetles, flat grain
beetle
