Abstract:
In the current investigation, an attempt has been made to assess the impact of climatic parameters such as rainfall, temperature and relative humidity on silk cocoon production in Karnataka. Results emanated the study clearly indicates that all parameters under study were found to be significant in all locations except Mysuru and Ramanagara (bivoltine). Climatic parameters have been observed to show a negative impact on silk cocoon production. It can be also inferred that optimum rainfall, temperature and relative humidity is much needed for higher Silk Cocoon production.
