The present study was carried out in Comilla, Jessore and Lalmonirhat districts during the period of 2003-04 to examine and compare relative profitability of IPM technologies over farmers' existing pest management practices. Cabbage and eggplant were considered with two technologies like the use of mustard oilcake and poultry refuse. Taking 100 farmers from each of the districts a total of 300 farmers were purposively selected. In compare to the prevalent use of costly insecticides, mustard oilcake and poultry refuse . were found as less costly, effective and harmless (l.35 mt to 4.39 mt for cabbage and 1.58 mt to 2.27 mt for eggplant). Significant test between the experimental plots and those of the farmers indicated that IPM technologies performed much better results. However, farmers in the study areas showed much curiosity about mustard oilcake and poultry refuse. For successful and effective dissemination of IPM technologies, following works were felt necessary like demonstration trials, field days, training programs for farmers and extension workers, distribution of leaflets, and mass campaign for circulating the information regarding IPM as the most useful tools in pest management.

To determine the relative profitability of IPM technology and existing pest control practices.

Five farmers were selected from each year to participate in testing the IPM-CRSP derived activities. Each of these farmers had one plot which was divided into two parts. Another 15 farmers were also selected with their own practice as control. A total of 300 farmers taking from each of Comilla, Jessore and Lalmonirhat were selected for the mentioned technologies and vegetables because of these three districts were intensive vegetable growing area and farmers of these areas were prone to use insecticides to manage pests. Essential information was collected through the use of interview schedules. The information related to the use of IPM technologies, farmers' perceptions, input- output and their prices and related constraints were recorded on a regular basis by the locally set enumerators. Before launching technology diffusion activities in the farmers' fields, the selected farmers as well as the enumerators were trained about the IPM technologies. Regional Offices in those areas and one vegetable scientist from Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS) of the respective area were also taken for necessary help for data collection. The collected data were summarized and analyzed with the help of tabular methods using averages, percentages, ratios etc. The observed data on yield were analyzed by two factors Completely Randomized Design (CRD) and the treatment means were compared by Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT); t- test was also used to find any significant differences of the means of yields of the experiments. An attempt was also made for the significance test for cabbage and eggplant yields among the treatments. The null hypothesis was made, Ho: There is no significant difference among the treatment means. The : study was conducted during winter and summer season of 2003-04.

The farmers in the study areas benefited from the IPM technologies with higher yields (cabbage 10-50%, eggplant 31-61%) and higher returns (BCR 1.35 to 4.39) than the farmers' own practices. The technologies were found to be very promising and encouraging by the farmers. Therefore, the technologies should be disseminated to the farmers' fields through the involvement of extension personnel of DAE and NGOs. For successful adoption of the technologies . throughout the country, the availability of poultry refuse, mustard oilcake, and pheromone must be ensured in the farmers' fields. For mustard oilcake, the cultivation of different HYVs of mustard should be increased in the country. The DAE efforts are very much needed for the purpose. These efforts will help increase mustard oil on the one hand and the availability of oilcake on the other. A mass campaign through TV, radio, leaflets and newspapers is needed to popularize the technologies and develop the awareness towards the consumption of insecticide-free vegetables. For the dissemination of the IPM technologies, regular field days and demonstration trials in the farmers' fields can be arranged with the involvement of DAE personnel, NGOs, and farmers.Training programs should be arranged for the farmers, extension personnel, and NGO officials for the effective dissemination of the IPM technologies.
