Abstract

This community service activity aims to enhance science literacy and environmental awareness among high school students in rural areas through the Smart Eco Trap, a combination of yellow sticky trap with lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) extract and sugar as a natural attractant. The activity was carried out at SMA Advent Tanah Putih, Kecamatan Likupang Barat, North Minahasa Regency, using material dissemination, trap-making demonstrations, and participatory demonstrations. Evaluation was conducted using a pre-test and post-test design on 75 students from grades X–XII. Results showed that students’ understanding increased from 6.7% in the pre-test to 90.7% in the post-test. These findings indicate that a contextual, practice-based learning approach effectively improves applied science literacy and awareness of environmentally friendly pest control. The Smart Eco Trap has the potential to serve as a simple and practical educational model for environment-based science learning in rural schools.

Abstract

Biological control is increasingly promoted for fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, but recent evidence remains dispersed from natural-enemy discovery to farmer adoption. Objective: This narrative review synthesized open-access Scopus articles indexed as 2026 publications and available through 2 July 2026, assessing evidence maturity toward implementation. Methods: Of 45 Agricultural and Biological Sciences records, 13 full texts were retrieved; 12 articles were included and synthesized thematically. Results: Parasitoids and entomopathogens showed promising controlled efficacy, but field performance varied. Combining Telenomus remus, Beauveria bassiana, and Metarhabditis rainai increased larval mortality and crop performance, whereas baculovirus products underperformed synthetic insecticides. Major gaps involved multi-season validation, standardized crop and economic outcomes, ecological safety, mass production, and sustained adoption. Conclusion: Research should prioritize translating biological efficacy into reliable, measurable, and scalable management strategies.
