Sayali V. Thakur, V. S Shirke

Abstract :

 In the present study it is revealed that majority of the mango growers were not adopting recommended plant protection measures for control of mango pest like mango hoppers, thrips, fruit flies, stem borer, shoot borer, mealy bug and termites. In case of control of disease like powdery mildew, majority of the mango growers had complete adoption whereas, majority of the mango growers had partial adoption regarding control measures of anthracnose. The study indicated that majority of the mango growers were not adopting recommended control measures for control of diseases like die–back and fruit rot. The study inferred that majority (66.67 per cent) of the mango growers had ‘medium’ level of adoption regarding plant protection measures.
