abstract
The field experiment was conducted during November, 2017 to assess the avoidable yield losses due to root- knot nematode in fig (cv. Poona fig) with paired plot design by soil application of carbofuran 3 G at 2.00 kg a.i./ha. The results indicated that the loss in yield of fig in an untreated trees ranged from 16.57 to 31.60%. However, average avoidable loss in the fruit yield of fig was recorded to be 24.92 per cent, when the crop was treated with carbofuran 3 G @ 2 kg a.i./ha.
