This book presents an advanced and comprehensive perspective on the non-insecticidal management of rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae), with particular emphasis on varietal resistance, damage assessment and sustainable post-harvest protection. It explores the infestation dynamics and mechanisms underlying host-plant resistance in rice. The book further examines promising non-chemical approaches, including resistant varieties, botanical interventions, cultural practices and integrated storage management. By synthesizing contemporary knowledge and practical strategies, it provides a scientific framework for minimizing storage losses while promoting safe, sustainable and environmentally responsible rice protection.
