Insects Associated With Rice Cultivation

By Ismael Sadou

Insect pests of rice are a very serious threat to rice production (irrigated and rainfed) in the Far North region of Cameroon, and have not received the attention they deserve as a major constraint to rice production in Africa. Rice is an ideal host plant for many insect species. All parts of the plant are attacked, from the roots to the developing seeds. Most of these insect pests belong to the orders Lepidoptera, Diptera, Coleoptera and Hemiptera. Some of them are chewers, while others are sucking biters.
