Insektisida Nabati sebagai Alternatif Ramah Lingkungan dalam Pengendalian Hama
Abstract
Excessive use of chemical pesticides has been proven to have a negative impact on the environment and human health. Botanical insecticides offer a solution for farmers as they are more environmentally friendly and readily available from various plant sources. This research aims to examine the effectiveness of plant-based insecticides in controlling pests and identify plants that contain bioactive insecticidal compounds. The research methodology involves isolating bioactive compounds from plants, assessing toxicity against target pests, and evaluating the effectiveness of pest control under various environmental conditions. The results of the study indicate that the use of botanical insecticides can significantly inhibit the growth of pest populations without leaving harmful residues in the environment. In addition, the application of this method can support a sustainable agricultural system by reducing reliance on chemical pesticides. Therefore, the exploration and use of botanical insecticides should continue to be explored and developed as a safer and more sustainable pest management strategy.
