Abstract
The purpose of this work was to identify pests and diseases associated to cashew crop in Caribia research center of Agrosavia. For 24 months, a monthly monitoring of the different structures of the plant was carried out and the arthropods found to cause damage were collected, as well as tissue samples with symptoms or signs of any disease. Eleven species of pest insects were identified, grouped into seven families and four orders. In addition, six pathogens that caused diseases in different tree structures were identified. Of the phytosanitary problems found, Leptoglossus zonatus Dallas (Hemiptera: Coreidae) and anthracnose are reported as the most relevant for this crop.
