| Summary: | The study examined the effect of pests on cabbage production in Kabale municipality. Data was collected on aspects like plant height, number of leaves, cabbage head diameter, and cabbage head weight to help conclude. During the experimental period, different approaches were used for pest control like spraying and control. Spraying had a significant positive effect on plant height, number of leaves, and cabbage head diameter while spraying and manuring had a slow but consistent increase in plant height, number of leaves, and cabbage head diameter. However, plant height, number of leaves, and cabbage head diameter did not show a significant effect on the weight of cabbage heads as spraying and manuring had almost the same effect on the weight of cabbage heads. It would therefore be critical to conduct a study on the appropriate ratios of the treatments and integrate them into the aspect of cost. |
