Abstract:
Rice is a staple food for more than half of the world's population, making its protection from pests a critical agricultural concern. The balance between botanical and synthetic insect control methods has gained significant attention due to the need for sustainable agricultural practices and the growing resistance of pests to conventional pesticides. This research paper explores the histopathological effects of botanical and synthetic insecticides on rice pests, providing insights into their efficacy, mechanisms of action, and potential for integration into integrated pest management (IPM) strategies.
