Section 29 in The Orissa Kendu Leaves Manual, 1973
29. Storing of keris.
- The Checker shall decide, subject to over all responsibility of the Head Checker and the Range Officer, the time for removal of the dried keris to the phadi. Storing of keris inside a phadi shall be on raised platform with a thick layer of spoitt leaves or straw spread on the top of the stack. Care should be taken to ensure that the keris are not spoiled from moisture seeping through the ground and walls nor from leaks in the roof. Stacks in the phadi may be made into suitable compartments.
