Abstract

The quality of post-harvest wheat inherently declines over time during storage, posing significant challenges in its preservation. Accurately and promptly identifying the wheat freshness is not merely a complex scientific endeavor requiring urgent attention; it is also a pragmatic necessity tied to ensuring the safety of grain storage operations. This article offers a comprehensive overview of the currently prevalent research detection methodologies for wheat freshness, meticulously summarizing the fundamental detection principles and preliminary research findings associated with each approach. Furthermore, it engages in a rigorous analysis and discussion of these methods, culminating in insightful thoughts and recommendations for future research endeavors in this technological domain. The article aims to furnish grain industry professionals and researchers with novel, enlightening, and invaluable references to guide their explorations in related fields.
