The purposes of the study were to determine the adoption of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices by the vegetable growers and to explore the relationships between the adoption of IPM practices in vegetable cultivation and the selected characteristics of the vegetable growers. Data were collected from randomly selected 101 respondents of the three selected villages of ganna union under sadar upazila of Jhenaidah district using interview schedule by the researchers during May to August, 2017. Appropriate scales were used to measure the variables of the study. Correlation test was used to explore the relationships between concerned independent and dependent variables. Majority (72.28%) of the respondents had medium annual income from vegetable cultivation. Majority (58.42%) of the respondents spent moderate time in vegetable field. About one third (36.63%) of the respondents had low knowledge on IPM practices. Majority (58.42%) of the respondents had very low organizational participation and 38.62% of the respondents had low contact with IPM club and FFS. Most (98.02%) of the respondents had low cosmopoliteness. Most (80.20%) of the respondents had low extension media exposure. About half (51.49%) of the respondents had low training exposure related to cultivation practices. Majority (63.37%) of the respondent had unfavorable attitude towards IPM practices. Majority (70.30%) of the respondents had medium level adoption in commonly used IPM practices in vegetable cultivation. Use of pesticides ranked 1st(score 295) as IPM practices compared to other environment friendly practices. Among the fourteen selected characteristics of the respondents, educational qualification, time spent in vegetable field, knowledge on IPM practices in vegetable cultivation, contact with IPM club and FFS, training exposure and attitude towards IPM practices showed positive significant relationships with the adoption of selected IPM practices by the vegetable growers.

The present study was undertaken with a view to study adoption of integrated pest management (IPM) practices by the vegetable growers. The specific objectives of the study were to: 1. analyze the socio-economic characteristics of the vegetable growers; 2. determine the extent of adoption of IPM practices by the vegetable growers; and 3. explore the relationships between the selected characteristics of the vegetable growers and their adoption of IPM practices.
 

Data were collected from 101 randomly selected respondents of the three selected villages of ganna union under sadar upazila of Jhenaidah district through interview schedule by the researchers during May to August, 2017 on some selected characteristics of the respondents which were treated as independent variable viz. age, educational qualification, family size, farm size, annual family income, annual income from vegetable cultivation, time spent in vegetable field, knowledge on IPM practices in vegetables cultivation, organizational participation, contact with IPM club and FFS, cosmopoliteness, extension media exposure, training exposure and attitude towards IPM practices in vegetable cultivation. Adoption of IPM practices was treated as dependent variable of the study. A list of 10 commonly used IPM practices were taken by reviewing different literature related to it. The respondents were asked to identify their extent of using 10 selected IPM practices in terms of „frequently, „occasionally, „rarely and „never and the scores assigned against these responses were 3, 2 ,1 and 0, respectively. The total score of a respondent was calculated by summing up the scores obtained from the selected practices. Adoption scores for the selected commonly used IPM practices of the respondents could range from 0 to 30. To compare among different IPM practices adopted by the farmers, an IPM Practices Use Index (IPUI) was calculated using the following formula,  IPUI = Nf × 3 + No × 2 + Nr × 1 + Nn × 0 Where, IPUI  = IPM Practices Use Index   Nf  = Number of respondents rated the extent of adoption as frequently No  = Number of respondents rated the extent of adoption as occasionally Nr  = Number of respondents rated the extent of adoption as rarely Nn  = Number of respondents never adopted the IPM practices. The IPUI score could range from 0 to 303 where “0” indicate no use and “303” indicate highest extent of use of particular IPM practice. Statistical treatments such as number, percent, rank order, range, mean and standard deviation were used to interpret data. To explore relationship between any two variables Pearson?s product correlation coefficient „r? was employed. Data were analyzed using the concerned software Microsoft Excel and Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) 22

The findings of the study indicated that the adoption of selected IPM practices was medium. Most of them used pesticides at high extent for controlling pest. They also used other pest controlling practices which were environment friendly. Significant positive relationship of educational qualification, time spent in vegetable field, knowledge on IPM practices in vegetable cultivation, contact with IPM club and FFS, training exposure and attitude towards IPM practices with adoption of selected IPM practices indicate that by increasing these characters, adoption of IPM practices can be increased.  
Environment friendly IPM practices like cultivation of resistant variety, use of sex pheromone trap, light trap, collection and destruction of eggs and larvae by hand picking and others indigenous methods were rarely used by the vegetables growers. Therefore, it may be concluded that unless or until these environment friendly practices are not popularized among the vegetables growers and the availability of pesticides are not decreased, the overall adoption of IPM practices would not be increased
