Age structure of sitophilus oryzae using fragrant rice, basmati rice, brown rice and local white rice / Muhamad Ridzuan Rosli

Stored product insect cause more than one fifth of total damages in rice in developing countries commonly and one of the insect that contributes to this problem is rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae. The huge amount of loss could be associated with their biology because their all four larval stage and pu...
