PENGEMBANGAN ALAT PENGENDALI HAMA WERENG COKLAT TANPA PESTISIDA BERTENAGA KINCIR ANGIN YANG RAMAH LINGKUNGAN
Abstract: Pests in rice crops,
namely mice, stem borer and Wereng
Coklat (Nilaparvata lugens Stal). Wereng coklat
is classified as very dangerous for the rice crop. This pest is highly
detrimental to the agricultural system in Indonesia, with attacks on a wide
area in a short time. This pest control methods such as by controlling in
farming, controlling the resistant varieties, physical controls and mechanical
and biological control. That method is not effective, so a more practical way
to control and quickly began to do that is chemically using pesticides. But the
impact of pesticides is dangerous, especially due to the use unwisely. So that
environmentally friendly technologies needed to control pests and ecosystem.
Target of this research is to develop a prototype tool wereng coklat control
without pesticides powered windmills that are environmentally friendly.
Prototype are designed with two modes, namely automatic controlled with motion
sensors and manual. Prototype was
designed with a mechanical concept that is environmentally friendly, it is to
reduce the effects caused by the use of chemical pesticides. The purpose of
this research is to design wereng coklat pest control device with a motion
sensor that consists of a mechanical vacuum and aluminum propeller. The
mechanical vacuum linked to the pipe that tipped on light suction funnel. In
the suction funnel installed motion sensors that serve to detect the
presence/movement wereng coklat pests.
The voltage source is derived from the modification of dry cell
connected to a windmill which functioned as a generator. Dry cell store
electricity converted from windmills. This study is experiment research with
developed by tested prototype both pre and post test. The prototype developed
by considering three factors: time of arrival (X1), time seedlings (X2) and the
planting location (X3) against the number of catches (Y). This device does not
use pesticides, but rather take advantage of the weakness of wereng coklat pest
are very sensitive to light. Based on the test results we can conclude that the
most influential variable to variable number of catches (Y) is variable Planted
Area (X3) with a coefficient of 0.372. Then variable planting time (X2) with a
coefficient of 0.355 and the smallest influence is variable arrival time (X1)
with a coefficient of 0.140.
