Abstract
Legumes (pulses) are ancient crops of the Sub-continent, Middle East and various parts
of the Africa. These provide high quality protein and considered to be the best food for
vegetarian population in India, South Asia, West Asia and Southern European
countries. Chickpea is valued for its nutritive grains with high protein content of 25-
29%. These grain legumes are, however, susceptible to different species of beetles of
the family Bruchidae in storage commonly known as Dhora. At current, insect manage
procedures frequently rely on synthetic insecticides and fumigants. Other than
substance safety actions may be result as like numerous severe drawbacks. Insecticides
have wide and unsystematic application causes natural imbalance confrontation to
insect, insect recovery and epidemic of secondary insect creates phyto-toxicity.
Insecticide residues in diet and nourish. Furthermore, non-stop use of insecticides leads
to harmful result on insect pollination, biological agent like different Predators,
parasitoids and too become cause of the ecological contamination. Owing to these
drawbacks, internationally scientists are annoying to approve substitute methods of
insect manage. The make use of close by obtainable native place resources in the
management of harmful insects are a primeval technology. Now in modern world, in
numerous parts of the earth a range of crop of vegetation have been tried lately by
researchers with an elevated amount of achievement as granule. Protestants next to
pulse beetle to decrease plague in storage space. Observance these views in brain, the
in attendance learning was conducted to examine the pesticide efficiency of a number
of native botanicals powders as granule protestant next to Callosobruchus chinensis
legumes grains. Reviewed shows that different plant material which are friendly with
ecosystems have significant results against pulse beetle and serve as an alternative
methods for the pest control.
