The most important role is they act as a food for higher chordates like snakes, birds and mammals. Due to huge use of pesticides and chemical fertilizer in agriculture sector is one of the important cause of decline of amphibian population in the world. On medical point of view they are very signicant in controlling the different genera of mosquitoes like Anopheles, Aedes and Culex which are responsible for malaria, yellow fever and dengue in human population. The rice eld lled with water give opportunity to frogs to live in that in return they control insect and pest of rice crops.
