Abstract

The present study was conducted in Korukonda and Ramchandrapuram division having prominent area under brinjal in East Godavari district by selecting 4 villages from each mandal for study. Total 72 brinjal growers were selected. The study revealed that personal and socio economic characteristics of the respondents education, , land holding , extension participation , area under brinjal , extension contact and mass media exposure were positively and significantly correlated with their level of adoption of IPM practices. The variable age, family type, annual income and occupation had negative and significant correlation with the adoption level. Availability of biopesticides, pheromone traps and light traps at reasonable price and at local places were the important suggestions made by brinjal growers. The other suggestions were insect organization of demonstration campaign for proper guidance on IPM practices and for identifying insect pest from state department of agriculture and state agricultural universities.

安得拉邦东戈达瓦里地区茄子种植者对综合虫害管理做法的采用行为

本研究在东戈达瓦里区有突出的茄子种植区域的Korukonda和Ramchandrapuram地区进行，从每个曼达尔选择4个村庄进行研究。共选择了72个茄子种植者。研究发现，被调查者的个人和社会经济特征与他们的教育程度、土地持有情况、推广参与情况、种植面积、推广接触情况和大众媒体接触情况呈显著正相关。变量年龄、家庭类型、年收入、职业与收养水平呈显著负相关。生物农药、信息素诱捕器和灯诱器的价格合理，并在当地提供，是茄子种植者的重要建议。其他建议包括组织昆虫示范活动，以适当指导IPM实践，并由国家农业部门和州立农业大学进行害虫识别。
