Abstract: The field experiment was conducted in cashew plantation of village Sonarpal, Turenar and Dimrapal, District Bastar, Shaheed Gundadhur College of Agriculture and Research Station, Jagadalpur, Bastar (C.G.) during 2017-18. The results revealed that maximum incidence of pest were observed during new growth of flush and flower. The highly significant positive correlation (r = 0.622) was observed between TMB (shoot damage) and maximum temperature while, significant negative correlation (r = - 0.750) was recorded between relative humidity morning and TMB (shoot damage). The leaf eating caterpillar (damage %) showed significant negative correlation with minimum temperature (r = - 0.710) and evening relative humidity (r = - 0.577). The leaf folder (Damage %) showed negative correlation with maximum temperature (r = - 0.132), morning relative humidity (r = - 0.187) and evening relative humidity (r = - 0.099), similarly positive correlation with wind velocity (r = 0.103).
