Abstract

An experiment was conducted during 2022-23 at KVK, Jalore to observe the incidence of thrips in pomegranate orchards and their relationship with weather parameters. A fixed plot survey was conducted at five locations in the Jalore district. Five locations were selected for the fixed plot survey and the weekly incidence of thrips was recorded. The data revealed that the incidence of thrips (Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood started in the 25th Standard Meteorological Week (18 June - 22 June) with 0.33/5cm twig/plant whereas the peak incidence of pomegranate thrips was recorded in the third week of September (38th SMW) with 14.66 thrips/5cm twig/plant and last week of March (13th SMW) with 14.33 thrips/5 cm twig/Plant during 2022-23. A simple correlation coefficient was worked out between the incidence of thrips and weather parameters revealed that temperature showed a positive and significant relationship with the population of thrips.
