“…The study found significant variations in the diversity of chickpea stored insects among the studied districts, with Laelay Maychew having the highest species diversity and evenness of species, while Gondar Zurya had the lowest. The observed in differences in biophysical factors, storage conditions, and the genetic makeup of chickpea varieties grown in the different districts could explain this variation [ [37] , [38] , [39] ]. The identification of areas with high insect diversity could help in developing targeted control strategies, while information on the dominant species in each district could aid in selecting appropriate control measures.…”

“…Specifically, the percentage of bruchid infection increased progressively from 1MAS to 12MAS, ranging from 0% in seeds harvested early with 8% moisture to 21.73% at 12MAS. Aidbhavi et al, [11] also reported a positive correlation between seed moisture levels, storage duration, and both infestation and damage. All harvesting windows displayed noticeable variations in bruchid infection percentages across various seed moisture contents over the storage period.…”

Aims: The current study aimed to investigate the factors influencing seed deterioration in groundnut. Study Design: Three factorial CRD. Place and Duration of Study: The research was conducted at the Department of Seed Science and Technology, Seed Research and Technology Centre, PJTSAU, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, between february 2022 to march 2023. Methodology: Groundnut seeds harvested at different stages (early, normal, and late) were considered, each with varying seed moisture levels (8%, 10%, and 12%). These seeds were stored under ambient conditions for one year and evaluated for percentage of seed infection, seed rot, and bruchid infection. The assessments were carried out with three replicates, each consisting of 100 seeds. The study was conducted using a three-factorial design as the experimental setup involved three independent variables. Results: Results showed that among the different seed moisture levels, seeds harvested early with 8% moisture content exhibited the lowest percentages of seed infection, seed rot, and bruchid infection at 62.75% and 59.58% respectively after one year of storage. Conversely, seeds from the late harvesting window with 12% seed moisture content displayed the highest percentages of these seed health parameters at 53%, 00%, and 49.42% respectively. Notably, there was significant variation in seed infection rates observed in both 8% and 12% seed moisture content groups. Conclusion: These discoveries reveal the vital significance of timely harvesting and maintaining the right moisture levels to safeguard the quality and health of seeds.
