Abstract


Caisim (Brassica chinensis) and pakcoy (Brassica rapa) belong to the type of mustard vegetable that is easily obtained and has an economical price. However, the cultivation of caisim and pakcoy has various obstacles that cause production fluctuations. One of them is the attack of pests, severe pest infestation is capable of causing losses of up to 100% due to crop failure. Pest control on caisim and pakcoy crops carried out at various phases of cultivation depending on the type of pest and the planting conditions. This research was carried out at Balai Penyuluhan Pertanian Kabupaten Tana Tidung. Caisim and pakcoy are one of the most widely cultivated in the Balai Penyuluhan Pertanian Kabupaten Tana Tidung. This research is an observational and experimental research with the data from the research results analysed descriptively. The stages of prevention include the regulation of seeding seeds, the installation of traps and the application of vegetable pesticides on agricultural land. For attacked caisim and pakcoy crops, pest control carried out by mechanical control, and a plant rotation system. The application of the rotation system is carried out at the next stage of planting on the same cultivated land. Pest countermeasures should be carried out consistently and completely in order to obtain satisfactory results. Based on the results of observations and analysis, it is known that pest control methods carried out at the Agricultural Extension Center of Tana Tidung Regency are able to reduce the pest attack rate by up to 80%.
