Abstract

Effect of storage on neem treated cowpea seeds on germination and penetration of J2 of Heterodera cajani in roots was studied. It was found that there was complete germination in check as well as in all treatments with neem products. Neem seed kernel and neem cake were the most effective followed by neem seed coat. The neem treated-packetted-seeds were free from stored grain pests.
