Since, rice is the staple food of Northeastern region of India and it has been attacked by many insect pests, hence specific pest management strategies need to be planned for management of insect-pest complex in paddy. For quick knock down of these pests, chemical insecticides are the best option but the uses of these insecticides are harmful for the human health as well as to the environment.
