KEANEKARAGAMAN SPESIES ENTOMOFAGA PADA PERTANAMAN SAYURAN DI LAHAN PENELITIAN FAKULTAS PERTANIAN UNIVERSITAS SRIWIJAYA
Pakcoy, chickpeas and spinach are among the annual plants of high economic value. This high economic value is evidenced by the increasing production of vegetable horticultural commodities every year. The planting pakcoy, spinach and chickpeas with polyculture planting patterns is expected to increase the diversity of entomofag species and suppress the population of phytoag insects that have the potential as pests. This study aims to find out the diversity of entomofaga species in pakcoy, spinach and chickpeas grown in monoculture and polyculture. The study was conducted with the experiment method. The study was conducted at an interval of 7 days for 7 weeks. The species of entomofaga that comes to the land are taken using pantrap traps and pitfalltrap. All acquired entomofaga species are then identified based on their morphological traits. The results showed that the entomofaga species found in polyculture farming were lower. Entomofaga species obtained in monoculture and polyculture, namely 22 and 20 species. Diversity index in monoculture and polyculture is relatively moderate with an index value of 1.5. For monoculture plantations, the distribution of the number of individuals of each species is uneven and there are species that dominate, while in polyculture the number of individual species is more evenly distributed. The yield of pakcoy and chickpeas obtained in polyculture was higher than monoculture with a total weight of 4 kg and 2.1 kg, respectively.
