Abstract:

The fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda), has high capacity of biological and ecological adaptation. FAW can survive more than 80 crop species including maize crop. A study was undertaken to assess the knowledge and adoption of fall armyworm management practices by maize growers in Warangal district of Telangana state. The findings of the study revealed that majority of the maize growers were middle aged, educated, economically sound and usage of mass media to good extent. Besides this there were some gaps between recommended and actual knowledge and adoption of FAW management practices by the maize growers.
