ABSTRACT
A varietal screening was done at the Regional Research Station, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Jhargram, West Bengal with a aim to find out tolerant varieties of cashew against the major insect pests with good yield and most suitable to Red and Lateritic Zone of West Bengal. The experimental result revealed that varieties like H-255, H-303, T.No. 30/1, T.No.3/33, T.No. 10/19, T.No. 3/28, H-367, M-15/4, NRCC-2 were tolerant to cashew stem and root borer attack. The variety M-15/4 and NRCC -2 were recorded 100 percent free from CSRB infestation after twelve years of planting while NRCC-1 was found the most susceptible to cashew stem and root borer (100% infestation). It was closely followed by M-44/3 (66.67%) and H-68 (50%). The result of tea mosquito bug infestation showed that H-68 was most affected variety to TMB damage (2.68 %) which was very closely followed by T.No. 3/28 (2.63%) and H-367 (2.2%) respectively. Maximum infestation leaf miner infestation at vegetative stage was notice in NRCC -2 (32.54%) followed by TN-3/28 (24.45%). Out of the thirteen varieties screened three varieties namely H-255, NRCC-1 and NRCC-2 were least preferred (1.92% in all ) by the leaf and blossom webber.
