Evaluasi Penggunaan Pestisida Pada Petani Bawang Merah Di Desa Wombo Mpanau Kecamatan Tanantovea Kabupaten Donggala

Abstract

This study aims to study and determine the behavior of farmers in the use of pesticides on shallots in Wombo Mpanau Village, Tanantovea District. This study uses a simple random method. The data obtained is collected, processed and analyzed. Analysis was carried out to determine the frequency of data in each variable. Primary data obtained through interviews were analyzed to provide a concise picture of groups of data in one frequency table. Types of pests that attack onion in Wombo Mpanau Village are leaf caterpillars, leaf flies, trips, flour dew, and fusarium wilt. The most widely used pest control method is the use of chemical pesticides, which reaches 70% of respondents. The knowledge of farmers on the application of pesticides is relatively good, namely 100% of respondents apply pesticides when there are symptoms of attack and if other controls are unable to overcome the pest attack. Knowledge of farmers on the use of doses of pesticides is relatively good, namely 100% of respondents use the dosage according to the recommendations listed on the packaging. The actions of farmers when applying pesticides in general are not mixing pesticides. The majority of respondents have taken the right action in terms of storing semrot and pesticides in a special place. But on the other hand the awareness of farmers is still low, because there are still many farmers who wash sprayers in rivers or ditches.

“…Where this time is the right time to apply pestidia because it has a low pest attack intensity. This is also supported by research by Satyani et al, (2019) which states that pest control using pesticides when attack symptoms appear or when other controls are no longer able to control pests is a good way to maintain ecosystem balance and environmental sustainability, because in At that time, the intensity of attacks was still relatively low and generally had not yet reached the economic threshold.…”

“…Insektisida kimia sintetik dianggap oleh petani sebagai pilihan utama karena dapat mengendalikan hama secara cepat dan praktis. Namun, penggunaan insektisida kimia sintetik secara terus-menerus atau kurang bijaksana akan menimbulkan dampak negatif seperti terjadinya pencemaran lingkungan, meracuni organisme nontarget, resistensi, dan resurjensi hama (Satyani et al, 2019;Untung, 2000;Yulia et al, 2020).…”

“…Using organic pesticides as an alternative in controlling OPT by some farmers is not familiar and not practical. A study in Wombo Mpanu Village in 2019, a wide-range against some red onion farmers who used pesticides, obtained the fact that as many as 3 out of 10 farmers used organic pesticides as an OPT control method shallots (13). Some farmers have sufficient knowledge about plant pesticides' potential in crops, but that knowledge is less supported by the knowledge of plant species selection and some types' control of OPT (29).…”
