abstract
An investigation was carried out four consecutive year (2016-19) to study the impact of pesticides spray on pollinators or visitors population during flowering period of mango at ICAR-AICRP on fruits centre, Agriculture Experimental Station, NAU, Paria (20^o26’N, 72^o58’E). The results revealed that intensity of pollinators or visitors found significantly high on unsprayed trees as compared to sprayed trees (P<0.01). Maximum population was recorded in 7^th SMW (1.84 pollinator or visitors /panicle/5 minutes) followed by 6^th SMW (1.82/panicle) and 5^th SMW (1.19/panicle) on unsprayed trees over to pesticides sprayed trees 6^th SMW (1.24/panicle), 7^th SMW (1.24/panicle) and 5^th SMW (0.86/panicle), respectively. This information may be useful to known activity and impact of pesticides spray on pollinators or visitors population in mango ecosystem.
