Abstract:The presence of pod rot caused by the pathogenic fungus Phytophthora palmivora (Butl.) is a major constraint in cocoa cultivation. Control of this disease needs to be done with an organic approach that is environmental friendly such as the use of biopesticides from plant materials. Coconut fiber liquid smoke is one of the materials that can be used as an environmental friendly botanical pesticide. This study aims to determine the concentration of liquid smoke made from coconut fiber that is effective in inhibi… Show more
