Beside high economic value now a day's cultivation is becoming difficult to the farmers because of attack of insect pests causing damage from seedling stage to its maturity.

However, achieving this task seems to be impossible due to various constraints. One of the major problems is rice yellow stem borer attacks the rice field.
