Abstract

This research was conducted to analyze the application of the integrated pest management (IPM) model to increase the ecological resilience of the honey pumpkin plant. The research was carried out at the Research and Teaching Farm, Pest Laboratory, Laboratory of Biological Agents, Faculty of Agriculture, Jambi University from June - October 2020. The research was designed with two treatment of pest control, namely: A = conventional pest control (application of synthetic insecticides, synthetic fungicides on a calendar basis and application of synthetic fertilizers; B = planting refugia plants between honey pumpkin plants, application of bio pesticides (Trichodermasp, Beauveria bassiana and Metarhiziumanisoplia), predatory application (Oecophyllasmaragdina) and use of adhesive yellow traps. The observed variables were: species and population abundance of arthropods; Shannon-Wiener index (H”), Evenness index (E), and Berger-Parker dominance index (d). Arthropods samplings were carried out by a pit fall trap, a sweeping net and sticky yellow traps when the plants were 20, 40, and 60 days after planting (DAP). The result shows that the ecology resilience of treated honey pumpkin agro-ecosystem with bio intensive IPM model was better than ecology resilience of treated honey pumpkin agro-ecosystem with conventional pest control; the honey pumpkin agroecosystem that using bio intensive IPM model in pest control was classified as stable (good) until very stable (very good) and the honey pumpkin agroecosystem that using conventional pest control was classified as less stable (dissatisfactory).
