| dc.description.abstract | Suitable management practices for combating the root (wilt) disease has been developed as early in 2960s by Central Plantation Crops Research Institute. Eventhough the average coconut yield increased from 52461u1t s/ha since 2952-52 to 6847nuts/ha in 2000-02, with an additional yield of 2601 nuts per hectare, the field improvement is less satisfactory in India. In this paper the authors P. Anithakumari, Rema Bai and N. Sasidharan analysed the results of demonstration plot yields and yield gap in root (wilt) affected areas. One of the major reasons for yield gap in South Kerala region is the prevalence of root wilt diseases of coconut. But the knowledge and adoption of root wilt management practices were low among the farmers. The studies have shown that the yield difference is mainly due to the management of space, selection of quality planting material and the nature of shade in homesteads. | en_US |
