dc.description.abstract | The present study was undertaken at the University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad during 2017-2018 to study the knowledge and technology gap in IPM practices of cabbage at Belagavi and Haveri districts of Karnataka. These districts are purposively selected for research study as the area under cabbage crop in Belagavi and Haveri is ranked first and second in Karnataka state. One hundred and fifty farmers formed sample for the study. The ex-post facto research design was used for the study. The important findings are more than half (51.33%) of farmers had medium level of knowledge about IPM practices in cabbage. Hundred per cent of the farmers possessed correct knowledge about summer ploughing. Large majority of farmers possessed the knowledge on trimming of field bunds (96.00 %), crop rotation (93.33 %) raised nursery bed (91.33 %) and regular destruction of damaged plants (92.66 %). Nearly 80.00 per cent of farmers had knowledge about pheromone traps and spraying of NSKE. More than one third (39.33 %) of cabbage growers were found in medium level of technology gap category. Hundred per cent technology gap was observed in use of cotesia plutella eggs. Large technology gap was observed in use of light traps (3/ acre) (80.00 %) and planting of trap crops in correct row (77.33 %). There is no technology gap observed in case of summer ploughing. Non-availability of required biological control agents in time was the major constraint in adoption of IPM practices in cabbage. Education, cabbage farming experience, annual income, extension contact, mass media exposure and farm resource base had positive and significant relationship with knowledge. Education, cabbage farming experience, annual income, extension contact, mass media exposure had negative and significant relationship with technology gap. | |
