Abstract

This study aims to identify symptoms and attack levels of Oryctes rhinoceros, analyze its effect on vegetative growth, and evaluate integrated pest management strategies at PT Binanga Karya. A descriptive qualitative method was used, involving field observation, interviews, and documentation. Observations were conducted on 143 oil palm samples aged 30 months. Interviews were conducted with 2 foremen and 5 workers. Data analysis followed the Miles, Huberman & Saldana (2014) model. Results showed that 46.9% of sampled plants were attacked: light (19.6%), moderate (16.8%), and severe (10.5%). Symptoms included V-shaped boring holes, brown frass, broken spear leaves, and death of growing points. Moderate attack caused a 15-day delay per leaf and 20% reduction in stem height. Exacerbating factors included poor sanitation of decaying organic matter, high rainfall, and depression topography. PT Binanga Karya implemented IPM through routine sanitation, pheromone traps (1 unit/2 ha), manual larva collection, and targeted insecticide application. This integration reduced pest populations by over 70%. The study concludes that O. rhinoceros significantly affects vegetative growth of young oil palm, and the applied IPM strategy is effective in suppressing attacks.
