Rice insect pests and their management

2017
The rice plant is an ideal host for many insect species. All of the plant parts are vulnerable to insect-feeding from the time of sowing till harvest. There are over 800 insect species damaging rice in one way or another, although the majority of them do very little damage. In tropical Asia only about 20 species are of major importance.

Insect Pests of Rice

1991
Rice is the most important food for mankind. Annual world rice production amounts to approximately 460 million tons grown on roughly 145 million ha (Norton and Way 1990). Over 90% of this area lies in Asia, while the remainder is divided among Latin America, Africa, Australia, Europe, and the United States (IRRI 1989). To keep pace with projected human

Ecology of Common Insect Pests of Rice

Annual Review of Entomology, 1968
Rice, the staple diet of over half the world's population, is grown over about 124 million hectares and occupies almost one fifth of the total world area under cereals. Classified primarily as a tropical and subtropical crop, it is cultivated as far north as 49° and as far south as 35°, and from sea level to altitudes of 3000 meters.

Insect Pests of Stored Rice

1991
Stored-product insects damage agricultural commodities during storage, processing, and distribution. Postharvest losses are particularly costly. The production costs already invested in the crop place the value at its highest point, and the loss of relatively small percentages is financially significant.
