Broadleaves weeds are the plants that identified having medicinal aspect along with chemical compound or secondary metabolite that can control the storage pest insect. This review also summarizes the mode of action for the insects such as contact toxicity that from feeding and repellent. Research on the extract from the broadleaves is one of the alternatives of biopesticides. Moreover, the research still needs further research in many aspects including bioformulation in order to be commercialized. This paper has reviewed the broadleaves from different families to see the most potential weed that have the effectiveness in controlling rice stored product insects.
