Abstract
Increased wheat demand is driven by a rapidly growing population and a change in food preference away from traditional cereals and towards wheat and wheat products .Rice weevil is widly distributed in the world and its cause’s damage to stored products, specially stored grains. Damage cuased by pest result in loss of seed weight and vigor. Damage and feeding rate of a bove mentionalpest cause to seed weight and vigor. Damage and feeding rate of this pest was studied in 8 lines and cultivars sunchas: Kouhdasht, Zagros, Morvarid, Darya, Pastor, Line 17 and N-80-19, in an RCBD with a four replications under the stored condition.
