Abstract
The present paper reports the bio-efficacy of six green pesticides viz.
Parthenium (Parthenium hysterophorus), Nishinda (Vitex
negundo), Lantana (Lantana camara), Vasak (Adhatoda vasica),
Debdaru (Polyalthia longifolia), Citronella (Cymbopogon nardus)
oil (all at 5% concentration) and a conventional pesticide like Cypermethrin
(10 EC/1.16%) tested against Tribolium castaneum infesting whole grain
wheat. The overall results indicated that the mean percentage of mortality
valid between (96.66%) in case of Cypermethrin followed by Vasak (92.22%), Lantana
(88.88%), Nishinda (76.66%), Debdaru (75.55%) Parthenium (74.44%)
and the minimum was in Citronella essential oil which register (62.21%)
mortality. No Significant difference existed among the treatment.
