Abstract

Potatoes are a vegetable source of carbohydrates so they have great potential as an alternative staple food. Pest and disease disorders are the main obstacles. The purpose of this study was to determine differences in pest population levels and disease attacks in potato crops with application IPM and conventional systems. The study was conducted in Garut Regency and in West Bandung which was conducted from July 2015 - March 2016. In each location the compared between IPM application treatment and conventional treatment (local farmers' way) was compared. The treatment tested are as follows: (1). T1: IPM system that is : plot with the application of IPM technology produced by IVEGRI. (2). T2 : IVEGRI IPM system + use of silver plastic mulch cover. (3). The conventional treatment system. The seeds used are Granola tuber let varieties with a size of 5-7gram. the results of the study show that : (1). The IPM treatment with use of silver mulch increase the benefits of applying IPM. Plant growth and yields are higher than conventional methods. (2). The IPM treatment with or without mulch provides a better environment for the development of soil fauna (3). The use of selective and minimal pesticides in IPM treatment increases the population of Collembola, Acarina and Diplura soil fauna. (4). Attacks of airborne diseases ( late blight and early blight) are not infulenced by the treatment but by the season. Keywords : Solanum tuberosum L., IPM (Integrated Pest Management), Soil Fauna
