Abstract

Rice, also known as oryzasativum, is the most important tropical grain and supplies around one-fourth of the total calories that humans consume on a daily basis. It is the staple food of more people than any other food grains and 90 percent is cultivated and eaten in South and Southeast Asia, which are the center of the world’s population. Rice is a member of the Oryza genus, and there are two primary cultivars: Asia and glabemima. There are possibly more varieties of rice than all of the other food grains combined in Africa (Cating David 1992), making it a semi-aquatic gramineous crop of remarkable variety. The present research discussed about the influences of moringa olifera seed on Corcyra Cephalonia rice moth damaging rice lepidoptera’s. The important test grains are rice commonly used as cereals in our country rice was. Procured from the local grain dealer. The quality was tested and confirmed with the help of some agriculturists. These were found quite uninfected germfree. They were thoroughly washed and sun dried. There was no sign of infestation on the grains. It was confirmed after their storage under laboratory conditions for about twenty days. They were roughly washed and sun-dried. It was confirmed after (2020 Year) their storage under laboratory conditions for about 120 days department of zoology and chemistry PPN College, Kanpur.
