Abstract

Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a pest that originated in the United States and then migrated to Indonesia. This pest reportedly attacked corn in West Pasaman, West Sumatra Province, in 2019. This study aimed to determine the effect of cultivation practice on fluctuations in natural enemies and S. frugiperda. The research was conducted in Pandan Rejo Village, Pagak, Malang Regency. Data from observations of pest populations' natural enemies were then analyzed using simple quantitative analysis. The population and intensity of Spodoptera frugiperda attacks on IPM practices were always lower than those on conventional practices. During observation, there were 2 species of natural enemies, Braconidae and Scelionidae. The parasitoid population in IPM is always higher than in conventional practice. The lower parasitoid population at conventional practice failed to suppress the S. frugiperda population. Farming business analysis calculated using the R/C ratio showed that IPM practice had a value of 1.03 while conventional was only 0.55. IPM practice is feasible and more ecologically friendly than conventional practice.

Abstract

Leaf miners (Liriomyza sp.) are one of the pests affecting shallot plants. Attacks by Liriomyza sp. on shallot plants lead to tuber rot and leaves drying out, resembling burn damage. One control method is to utilize trap plants and refugia. Trap plants are specific species that attract pests, diverting them from the main crop. Refugia, on the other hand, are areas where pests can seek shelter, reducing their impact on the main crop. This study aimed to assess the impact of trap plants and refugia on the population and attacks of Liriomyza sp. in shallot crops. The research was conducted from June to September 2021 at the experimental field of the Faculty of Agriculture in Jatimulyo Village, Lowokwaru District, Malang City, East Java. Observation parameters included the population of Liriomyza sp., damage intensity, population of natural enemies, plant height, and number of leaves. The results indicated that different types of trap plants significantly influenced the population of Liriomyza sp. and damage intensity compared to the control treatment. However, different trap plant types did not significantly affect the population of natural enemies. The natural enemies identified included Vespidae, Coenosia sp., and Opius sp. Additionally, various trap plant types did not significantly impact plant height and the number of leaves.
