Abstract
Incidence of pests is related with several cultural practices like pruning, training system, irrigation, nutrition, thinning of berries and harvesting time. Hence, the knowledge on grape cultivation will be highly useful for planning the pest management programme. Grape is grown under a variety of soil and climatic conditions in three distinct agro-climatic zones, namely, subtropical, hot tropical and mild tropical climatic regions in India. Pest incidence also depends on soil types and climatic conditions. Marketing also either domestic or export has influence on the use of chemicals in the pest management programme.
