    Notes:
    Phase II, This study presents an interpretation of the way Punjabi farmers in a village of the arid Sind perceive the pest hazard and the methods of management that they employ to deal with this situation. It is found that farmers do recognize the seriousness of the problem which consequently leads them to employ traditional as well as pesticide treatment of their crops. But because of financial handicap and other factors, they do not use pesticides regularly or in adequate quantity. As a result the control of pests remains ineffective. (original)
