| Abstract:
A trial was conducted for three years from 1976–78 to study the efficacy of combined spray of urea and endosulfan (0.05%) on the yield of cashew and control of tea mosquito on the ten year old trees of cashew selection M 10/4 at Cashew Research Station, Vridhachalam. Three sprays of endosulfan with urea (3%) gave highest mean yield of nuts uniformly over years compared to control. Three sprays of endosulfan alone or in combination with urea were found effective in controlling the tea mosquito. | |
