其他摘要：Occurrence of different pests and inability to control the same by the growers due to lack of knowledge is the important factor influencing its production and productivity adversely. It is necessary that mango growers should have knowledge about appropriate plant protection measures to keep their mango crop free from pest infestations. In the present study it is revealed that majority of the mango growers were not having knowledge about recommended plant protection measures for control of mango pest like mango hoppers , thrips, fruit flies, stem borer, shoot borer, mealy bug and termites. The study inferred that less than two- third (65.71 per cent) of the mango growers had ‘medium’ level of knowledge regarding plant protection measures.KEY WORD: Knowledge, Mango, Plant Protection, Pests.
