Taluk wise mean incidence revealed that, highest disease incidence of 17.92 per cent was recorded in Koppal followed by Shimoga (12.0%), Gangavati (8.07%), Holalkere (7.8%) and Sagar (6.30%) taluks. The minimum incidence of 1.75 per cent was recorded in Sandur, Hospet (4.69%), Hiriyur (5.7%) taluks. District-wise, highest tip over incidence of 12.99 was recorded from Koppal followed by Shimoga (9.15%) and Chitrdurga (6.75%).
