ABSTRACT

The study was undertaken to assess the infestation of yellow mite and semilooper on jute in different dates of sowing. The results revealed that the early sown crop suffered more with yellow mite infestation and there was no significant effect of sowing times on semilooer infestation. There was no significant effect of insect pest pressure on fibre yield of the jute crop. Crop grown on mid-April was found to be more optimum with maximum of 30.30 q/ ha fibre yield.
