This book presents research on effective strategies to safeguard mung bean grains against Callosobruchus chinensis during storage. Conducted at B.A. College of Agriculture, AAU, Anand, the study identifies resistant mung bean varieties and evaluates the efficacy of plant oils, botanical powders, and synthetic insecticides as grain protectants. Treatments with neem oil, castor oil, and neem leaf powder significantly reduced pest damage while preserving seed quality and germination. Among insecticides, deltamethrin and cypermethrin emerged as the most effective. These findings offer practical, safe, and sustainable solutions for protecting stored mung beans.
