Seed Spice oils of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.), cumin (Cuminum
cyminumn L.), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Miller), and ajwain
(Trachyspermum ammi L.) were used as impregnation on seed surface on
same seed as protectant against cigarette beetle Lasiodermaserricorne.
All seed spice oils were able to significantly reduce the population of L.
serricorneat all stages of observation. The application of fennel oil was
proved to be most detrimental against development of population of L.
serricorne in fennel seed as only 11.3 beetle developed after 90 days
against 54.6 beetle in control treatment. Uses of higher concentration of oil
applied results more effective to reduce the population growth of beetle.
The finding indicates the application of seed spice oil is good source of
repellent for management of cigarette beetle during storage of seed
spices.
