The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of some botanicals as grain protectant against Caryedon serratus (Oliver) in stored groundnut at Prayagraj during 2019 to 2020. Seven botanicals viz., Neem oil, castor oil, neem leaf powder, turmeric rhizome powder, lantana leaf powder, mint leaf powder, tulsi leaf powder were evaluated as compared to control on the basis of adult mortality (%), number of adult emergence and weight loss (%) in stored groundnut. The results showed that neem oil was more effective followed by castor oil, neem leaf powder.
