Abstract

Outbreak of oil palm bagwormPteroma pendula has been reported within the last few years in several plantations in North Sumatra. A study was conductedto determine the impact of P. pendula attacks on oil palm productivity. Aerial photograph was taken in November 2016 andanalyzed to determine the level of damage on each palm canopy. The damage symptoms were classified onto healthy palms ascontrol plants (score 0), mild (score 1), moderate (score 2), severe (score 3), and very severe (score 4). The sample palms wererandomly selected and observed for the sex ratio, bunch number and bunch weight at 18 months after defoliation. The attackof P. pendula at the highest level (score 4) caused a significant effect on sex ratio and the number of bunches produced. Thefresh fruit bunches production was declined 21.02–36.35% on palms with moderate to very severe attack (score 2–4). Similarpalms also have a potential case of inflorescences abortion 18.41–32.54%. However, the average bunch weight was notinfluenced by P. pendula attack.

Abstract

Drought stress is one of the factors that may influence the growth of oil palm seedlings. In long term, drought can potentially increase the susceptibility of oil palm to plant diseases. This study aims to analyze the effect of drought on vegetative growth and the severity of Curvularia leaf spot disease. Drought stress was simulated by limiting water application to three-month-old oil palm seedlings at field capacity (KL), 75% KL, 50% KL, and 25% KL levels. In each treatment, inoculation of Curvularia oryzae was conducted by spraying a spore suspension (1 x 105 conidia/mL) evenly on the leaf surface. The results showed that infected seedlings under severe drought stress (25% KL) had lower height and crown width compared to treatments KL. The severity of Curvularia leaf spot disease in plants experiencing severe water stress (25% KL) was lower than in the standard nursery treatment, KL, and 75% KL. In general, it can be concluded that drought stress has contrasting effects on plant growth variables and the severity of Curvularia leaf spot disease.
