Key Points

CO2-modified atmosphere fumigation effectively controls insects in a maize silo environment.
Control rates for pests reached over 80% under modified conditions, ensuring better grain preservation.
Assessment focused on gas distribution patterns across various silo heights and volumes to understand efficacy.
Results suggest that this method could have significant implications for pest management in stored grains.
