×<p>Cashew (<em>Anacardium occidentale</em>) has become a high-value product for Indonesia in recent years, but by 2022, Indonesia&#39;s cashew production will only reach 6.5% of the world&#39;s cashew production, and far below the two main producing countries, Vietnam (35%) and India (20%). Termite infestation is thought to be one of the causes of the decline in production. The purpose of this study was to determine the types of termites that attack cashew guava and the form and size of the attack. The research was conducted in cashew plantations, Ngadirojo Subdistrict, Wonogiri Regency, Central Java from August 2022 to January 2023. The research was conducted using field survey method. Observations were made directly in the field. The sampling method used was purposive sampling. Data were collected by observing and counting the number of termites on the sample plants. The variables observed were termite species and abundance, proportion, and incidence of termite infestation in cashew fields. The results showed that the termites found belonged to the genus nasutitermes of the termitidae family, with the highest population on the stem. The castes found were dominated by the soldier (82%) and the worker (12%). The average incidence of termite infestation in cashew fields is 12% with 6 out of 50 plants infested.</p>
