Abstract

The problem of unbalanced use of inorganic fertilizers and in the long term it can cause damage to the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil as well as changes in the balance of soil nutrients, so that it produces unproductive marginal land for sustainable crop cultivation. Biosaka can be an effective and efficient innovation to reduce dependence on the use of inorganic fertilizers and minimize farming production costs. This community service was carried out in Seumantok Village, West Aceh. Methods for implementing community service include socialization, technical guidance in making biosaka and evaluation with questionnaires. The results obtained by the community are able to understand the meaning of biosaka and its benefits, how to make biosaka, and how to apply biosaka to cultivated plants. This biosaka eliminator is expected to be able to have a good effect on agricultural land, able to reduce the use of inorganic materials and maximize crop production potential in Seumantok Village, West Aceh.

Abstract

The reduction in the quantity and quality of food can occur during storage in warehouses due to the infestation of rice weevils (Sitophilus oryzae). Environmentally friendly control methods for rice weevil pests are needed, such as using botanical insecticides made from fragrant pandan leaf powder. This research aimed to determine the effects of fragrant pandan leaf powder insecticide on rice weevil pests. The research design used was a non-factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) utilizing four dosage levels: 15, 30, 45, and 60 g. The results showed that the dosages had a significant effect on rice weevil mortality, with the highest mortality rate found at the 60 g dosage, reaching 43.50%. The implications of the findings indicated that while higher doses of fragrant pandan leaf powder (60 g) significantly increase rice weevil mortality and also lead to rice weight loss, a balanced dose of bio-insecticide is needed to avoid excessive damage to the rice. Additionally, the organoleptic test results indicate that lower doses (15 g and 30 g) are more preferred by consumers for color, taste, and aroma, which implies that careful dosage control is crucial for both pest control effectiveness and maintaining consumer acceptance.
