Sucking Pests of Rice

Sucking Pests of Crops

Abstract

Rice is one of the major staple foods across the globe. It is known to suffer losses of up to 200 million tonnes globally owing to various abiotic and biotic factors. The biotic factors, which are largely insect pests, contribute to around 35.55 million tonnes of rice being destroyed every year. Around 800 species of insects are known to infest rice under field and storage conditions. In this chapter an attempt has been made to summarize the life cycle, nature of damage and management of the most important sucking pests causing economic loss in rice ecosystem.
