Insecticides Residue in the Centre of Paddy Field in Musi Rawas, South Sumatera, Indonesia

Abstract

Currently, the production of consumable- rise relies on rice fields especially technical irrigated rice fields. In increasing rice production, the use of insecticides become the main option to control the pest attacks.This condition generates the environmental pollution of insecticide residues on the field- soil. The most widely used- pesticides by the lowland rice farmers are insecticides or poisons to control plant pests.The active ingredients contained in insecticides are methomyl, fipronil, buprofezin, and chlorantanipol and others. Each active ingredients have the percentages of 19.20%, 16.87%, 13.56%, 13.32%, and <10%, respectively. This study aims to detect insecticide residues in the soil generated by the insecticides uses.This research was conducted at the Musi Rawas rice field center which uses insecticides as the pest control. This research was conducted in March 2018 using survey method by taking soil samples on rice fields. Residual analysis was analyzed using Gas Chromatography (GC) in the Environmental Laboratory of the Indonesian Center for Biodiversity and Biotechnology Bogor (ICBB). Laboratory test results detected 0.04 ppm of methomyl as the highest residual content in the sample.Therefore, the result has exceeded the quality standard which is 0.02 ppm. Moreover, the soil needs the further remediation to reduce contaminated- pesticides.

Perbandingan Pencemaran Pestisida dan Logam Berat di Beberapa Negara ASEAN: Systematic Review

“…Bahan aktif lainnya adalah Buprofezin dengan 13,56% applaud dan 13,32% klorantanipol insektisida virtako. Selain itu, bahan aktif lainnya masih di bawah 10% (Wartono et al, 2018).…”

“…Menurut Wartono et al (2018), Berdasarkan hasil analisis laboratorium metomil terdeteksi pada tanah dengan karakteristik kandungan C-organik rendah dan kandungan liat tinggi. Hal ini karena bahan organik, kandungan liat, pH, dll mempengaruhi degradasi pestisida di dalam tanah (Chowdhury et al, 2008).…”

“…Faktor lain dimungkinkan karena aplikasi beberapa pestisida. Wartono (2018) juga mengatakan karakteristik tanah seperti sifat fisik-kimia, mineralisasi lempung, dan klasifikasi tanah menunjukkan bahwa kandungan bahan organik (C-Organik) yang tercemar bahan kimia akan semakin buruk. Maneepitak & Cochard (2014), melaporkan di Thailand pengaruh penggunaan pestisida menunjukkan adanya korelasi positif terhadap parameter tanah diantaranya ikatan karbon dengan indeks pencemar menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan pestisida yang tidak rasional sangat berdampak negatif pada organisme tanah yang sangat penting untuk penguraian karbon organik.…”

Insecticide with the active ingredient methomyl interferes with the growth and survival of the jatiumbulan tilapia strain (Oreochromis niloticus)

“…This is because methomyl has a wide range of biological activities, so it is not uncommon for methomyl residues to be detected in agricultural products and natural waters (Haider & Kata, 2020). Insecticides with the active ingredient methomyl are a class of carbamate pesticides that are often used by farmers in the Musi Rawas Paddy Field Sentra, South Sumatra and Ngantru District, Tulungagung Regency in eradicating pests (Wismaningsih & Oktaviasari, 2016;Wartono et al, 2018).…”

A liquid chromatographic method for determination of acetamiprid and buprofezin residues and their dissipation kinetics in paddy matrices and soil

“…Injudicious application of these insecticides may pose a serious threat to human beings because of the residues present there. Various residue analysis methods for acetamiprid and buprofezin were followed using standardized chromatographic protocols (GC/ GC-MS/ LC/ LC-MS) (Wartono et al 2018 (Oulkar et al 2009) etc. A similar type of analysis was carried out for acetamiprid in crops like paddy (Saha et al 2017), fruits and vegetables (Obana et al 2002) and soil (Gupta and Gajbhiye 2007).…”
