Solution

The correct options are
A To prevent rodent infestation
B To avoid moisture contamination
Harvesting usually results in a huge amount of grain which is intended to be usable for a longer duration. Leaving large amounts of grain unattended leads to moisture contamination and insect or rodent infestation, which is why we need to take the right measures to store them.
