During the research only four parameters were seen namely weight loss, insect damaged grain, insect undamaged grain of percentage and weight of frass, it was noticed that max:weight loss(16.9±8.66), Insect damaged grain(34.02±7.28) and weight of frass (6.83±1.02) were recorded on wheat variety Abadgar during the month of June-2018. Their Min: weight loss (2.16±0.60), Insect damaged grain (17.2±3.24) and weight of frass (1.71±0.40) were recorded on wheat variety Moomal during the month of January-2018, In contrast to these parameters, Max: Insect undamaged grain (38.29±6.41) was recorded on wheat variety Abadgar during the month of January-2018.
