Abstract
A survey was conducted in Calicut district of Kerala State (India) to assess the extent of loss in yield due to quick wilt disease of black pepper. The study was conducted for a period of three years (1982-1984) and it was estimated that on an average about 1,88,900 vines perish due to quick wilt disease per year and the consequent yield loss amounting to about 119 metric tonnes of black pepper per year. It was also estimated that a total of 11 % of plants were lost due to the disease during the course of three years (1982-1984)
