The result showed that the introduced technology treatment (seedling immunization + BaPf) gave a higher plant posture than the other treatments. The highest fresh fruit weight was obtained in this treatment. This treatment also produced the highest yield of about 0.81 kg plant−1 or 21.48 tonnes ha−1 or the highest 19,84 % than existing. The intensity of yellow virus and anthracnose diseases in the introduced treatment was lower than existing.
