dc.description.abstractCoconut is a social crop for lakhs of small and marginal farmers. Root (wilt) disease caused by phytoplasma is estimated to cause annual loss of 968 million nuts. CPCRI developed a package of integrated root (wilt) management practices for improving the health and yield of disease affected palms. A large area participatory demonstration of the technology package was conducted in a contiguous area of 25 ha with the participation of 208 farm lhmilies for three years. The impact of the technol- ogy indicated 91.4 percent improvement in the average yield and reduction in the root (wilt) disease intensity. A shift in the paradigm for demonstration of technology packages in coconut and innovative participatory technology transfer approach (PTT) was the outcome of the programme. Data indicated significant improvement in the awareness, knowledge and adoption of the technology package.en_US
