Respon perangkap cahaya fluorense dan warna pada benda terhadap ketertarikan serangga hama tanaman gambas (Luffa Acutangula L. Roxb) terhadap cahaya

Abstract

This research was conducted in Danau Sijabut Village, DSN I, Air Batu District, Asahan Regency, with an altitude of ± 15 m above sea level, and a distance of ± 15 km from Asahan University. The research was conducted from February 2020 to April 2020. The study used a Factorial Randomized Block Design (RAK) with two factors studied. The Flourence factor consisting of 3 levels, namely: F1 = Flourence control, F2 = Without Florence, F3 = With Florence The color factor W consisting of 4 levels, namely: W1 = Blue, W2 = Red, W3 = Green, W4 = `Yellow. The results of the study showed that the best treatment was a trap that had fluorescence for each number of populations caught in the trap. And the order with the largest number of catches is the Diptera order, namely the main pest insects of the loofah plant, amounting to 12,571 and the Lepidoptera order, namely leaf eaters, amounting to 11,760. For color treatment, it can be seen in traps that have bright colors such as yellow and green. While all parameters are not significantly different, and the weight of the loofah is not significantly different because the treatment in fertilizing the loofah plant is even and the type of fertilizer is not differentiated. The interaction between the two factors of fluorescence and color does not show any different effects, this is because fluorescence also contains color.
