Abstract

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) requires the availability of biological control agents as one of its environmentally friendly control components. In practice, farmers' knowledge and skills for producing these agents independently remain limited. This community service activity aimed to build the capacity of farmers from the Ngudi Makmur Farmer Group (Gapoktan) in Purworejo Village, Gemolong District, Sragen Regency, to produce and apply biological control agents. The activity took place on 6 December 2025 through extension, demonstration, and hands-on practice, covering the introduction of biological control agent characteristics (Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, Trichoderma sp., and Pseudomonas fluorescens), mass propagation on solid media, inoculation, incubation, quality control through spore density measurement and viability testing, and application on demonstration plots. The results show that farmers' understanding of the role of natural enemies and the working mechanisms of biological control agents improved, along with their technical skills from production through to field application. Farmers also came to understand the environmental factors that influence the effectiveness of biological control agents, such as humidity and ultraviolet exposure. This activity strengthened the Gapoktan's commitment to reducing dependence on chemical pesticides, while opening opportunities to develop a biological control agent production unit as a group economic enterprise supporting sustainable agricultural systems.

Abstract

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a strategic food commodity whose productivity at the farmer level is frequently constrained by diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, and viruses, reducing not only grain yield but also grain quality. A persistent obstacle in the field is farmers' limited ability to identify disease symptoms accurately, which often leads to mismatched control measures. This activity aimed to strengthen the capacity of farmers at Gapoktan Ngudi Makmur, Purworejo Village, Gemolong District, Sragen Regency, in recognizing major rice diseases, understanding the disease triangle concept, and applying field-level disease diagnosis principles. The activity was held on 24 January 2026 as part of the Farmer School, delivered through classroom presentation and interactive discussion supported by visual educational media. Nine major rice diseases were introduced, namely blast, bacterial leaf blight, tungro, sheath blight, brown spot, bacterial sheath rot, grassy stunt, ragged stunt, and stem rot, along with their causal agents, main symptoms, triggering conditions, and control measures. The disease triangle concept was used to explain that disease arises from the interaction of host plant, pathogen, and environment, while field diagnosis principles helped participants distinguish disease symptoms from physiological disorders such as nutrient deficiency. Results indicated an improvement in participants' understanding of disease types, causal agents, and a more systematic diagnostic approach, which is expected to encourage more targeted and sustainable disease management practices in the rice fields of Gapoktan Ngudi Makmur.

Abstract

The rice agroecosystem is a dynamic system that cannot be separated from the presence of various organisms, including major rice pests. High cultivation intensity, uniform cropping patterns, and dependence on certain inputs can increase pest pressure within the paddy ecosystem. This activity aimed to build the capacity of farmers from the Ngudi Makmur Farmer Group (Gapoktan) in Purworejo Village, Gemolong District, Sragen Regency, through an introductory session on major rice pests held during the sixth meeting of the Farmer School program. The activity took place on 27 December 2026 through classroom and field sessions, covering the introduction of five major rice pests (stem borer, planthopper/leafhopper, rice bug, rat, and leaffolder) along with their damage symptoms and life cycles, followed by hands-on field observation and pest identification. The results show improved participant understanding of major pest types and their damage symptoms, the ability to identify pests based on morphological characteristics and damage symptoms, and an appreciation of the importance of routine monitoring for early detection. Participants also committed to applying routine pest monitoring practices, as an initial step toward Integrated Pest Management expected to reduce losses from pest attacks and support sustainable agriculture at Gapoktan Ngudi Makmur.
