Abstract
Mango is the second major fruit of Pakistan after citrus and ranks second in the world for its production. Its per hectare yields are very low due to non-adoption of recommended horticultural practices by mango growers, who in turn are influenced by a number of factors including socio-economic ones in order to monitor the 'relationship of socio-economic aspects on the adoption of some of the related recommended practices. The present study was conducted in Muzaffargarh district. The data were collected from 150 respondents. There is a non-significant relationship of type of tenure either with adoption of recommended pit farming or destruction of the diseased plants/plant parts by them. Key words: adoption, mango, socio-economic aspects
