Abstract
A systematic survey on characterization and assessment of guava (Psidium guajava) production technology in Bundi district of Rajasthan was carried out with the objective to ascertain adoption status of improved production technologies, prevailing insect-pests & diseases and to identify constraints in the production of guava. The outcomes of the study indicated that the majority of respondent farmers (70.83 %) had the poor adoption status of improved guava production practices. Bark eating caterpillar and fruit fly were the major insect pests and wilt and anthracnose were major diseases while bronzing of guava and fruit drop were physiological disorders prevailed in the study area.
