being the supplier of the commodity to the whole world.Recently,the silktrade,both withinandoutside theregion,hasbecomecomplexand competitive.Tocope with thissituation,there is a need to increase production as well as to improve the quality of silk.How-ever,one of the most serious problems faced by many countries of the region in such efforts isthe incidence of pests and diseases of both mulberry and silkworms.Indeed,cocoon and rawsilk production,and ultimately the quality of silk produced,depend heavily on the success ofsilkworm rearing,and pests and diseases are an important factor affecting the productivityof silkworms.Thus,an effective means of increasing the production of silk and improvingits quality is the control of such pests and diseases.Even by conservative estimates,pest and dis-ease incidence combined accounts for about 20-25 per cent of crop loss.Many kinds of pestsand diseases of mulberry and silkworm,along with appropriate measures to control them,havebeen identified in the producing countries;however,the information has not been made avail-able widely enough.  \nFor these reasons,the Regional Consultative Group on Silk-an intergovernmental bodyestablished by ESCAP to promote multidisciplinary co-operative activities in silk -requestedthe ESCAP secretariat to compile an inventory of information on the principal pests and dis-eases which are seriously affecting the productivity of both mulberry and silkworms,as well ason the control measures currently being adopted,and to distribute that information to con-cerned countries.Supported by generous financial assistance from the Government of theNetherlands,ESCAP initiated a series of activities which culminate in the publication of thepresent handbook.  \nThis handbook,prepared on behalf of ESCAP by a team of specialists led by Dr.K.Sengupta from the Central Sericultural Research and Training Institute of Mysore,India,contains a large amount of technical information on the various pests and diseases occurring inthe region and their control,supported by abundantillustrative materials and is mainly meantas a comprehensive and valuable guide for both extension workers and silk farmers.More-over,the technical information contained herein has been carefully compiled and is expectedto be valid for many years to come.We therefore hope that this handbook willalso becomean authoriative reference book for scientists and personnel involved in research and devel-opment workin this field.  \nS.A.M.S.KibriaExecutive Secretary  \n\"The team of
