Experiments were conducted to study the different plant products that affect the development of the gram seeds, Callosobruchus machulatus Fab. on Gram seeds. Plant extract, seed kernel (15g) and leaves from Mesva ferrea (Nageswer), Leucas linifolia (Halkusha), Saraca asoca (Ashok), Mentha pipertia (Pippermint), Eucalyptus dives (Eucalyptus), Terminalia chebula(Harida), Aristolochia braceata (Ketamer), Beta vulgaris (Sugarbeet), Marina laongi folid (Vishkandra), Asparagus racemosus (Satavari) were evaluated for their Ovipositional behavior of the pest on treated seeds. Fecundity and Incubation period on C. maculates. The results showed that plant leaves powder were effective in checking insect infestation. The powdered Kernel seeds and leaves extracts at a 15g.provided good protection for gram seeds by reducing insect Oviposition, f1 progeny, Adult emergence, and grain infestation rates. The germination capability of seeds even after 120 months of treatment.
