The study was an “expost-facto” research carried out in Belagavi and Haveri districts of Karnataka State during the year 2017- 18.

Variables such as age, family size, social participation, scientific orientation, economic motivation were not significantly related with knowledge about IPM practices. Variables such as education, cabbage farming experience, annual income, extension contact and mass media exposure have positive significant relationship at one per cent level of significance. Farm resource base was positively and significantly related with knowledge about IPM practices at 5 per cent level of significance.
