EFEKTIVITAS ATRAKTAN NABATI BERBAHAN SERAI WANGI (Cymbopogon nardus) DAN ADAS MANIS (Pimpinella anisum) TERHADAP Elaeidobius kamerunicus (COLEOPTERA:CURCULIONIDAE)

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is one of the main plantation crops in Indonesia. The aroma of pollen and nectar from male oil palm flowers is attractive to pollinating insects. The lack of male flower availability in oil palm leads to a low population of E. kamerunicus due to habitat and food source limitations. The low population of pollinating insects results in sub-optimal oil palm production. Extracts from oil palm male flowers, lemongrass, and anise are known to be used as attractants, serving as an alternative to oil palm male flowers for attracting pollinating insects. This research aims to determine the morphology of E. kamerunicus and the effectiveness of male palm flower, lemongrass, and anise extracts as attractants for E. kamerunicus. The research method used an olfactometer with a Y-tube, using male and female E. kamerunicus. The extract was made by soaking the material in methanol and was extracted using a rotary evaporator. Data analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel and R-Studio, presented in the form of heatmaps and T-tests. The research results indicate morphological differences between male and female E. kamerunicus, including size, snout length, bumps on the elytra, and the amount of hair on the body. Palm oil male flower extract is effective in attracting both male and female E. kamerunicus. Lemongrass and anise extracts are effective on male insects but less so on female insects. The most effective extract for attracting E. kamerunicus is the extract from male palm flowers with the fastest travel time. Male and female insects have different interests in lemongrass extract and anise extract.Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is one of the main plantation crops in Indonesia.
