Abstract
White grub pests have been destroyed a lot of plantation of dry land. Farmers rely on synthetic insecticides to overcome the white grubs problem. Concerning the ecosystem pollution, it is necessary to improve the method of preparing M. anisopliae which is more effective on white grubinfested land to substitute synthetic insecticides. The research was conducted by mixing compost
Fertilizer produced by the Faculty of Agriculture UPN "Veteran" Yogyakarta with the anisopliae according to the treatment (6.25g
/kg; 13.5g/kg; and 20.25g/kg). The pathogenicity test was carried
Out in a plastic container. Each container is filled with a compost
Mixture with compost and sand (1:10) and one white grub larvae
Instar 4. Each treatment consisted of 30 white grubs. The result
reveals that mixing compost fertilizer in the application of M. anisopliae was effective in increasing white grubs mortality by up to 16.67%. The greater the dose of M. anisopliae will speed
up the mortality time and increase the number of mortality.
Keywords: M. anisopliae, compost fertilizer, white grubs, mortality, pathogenicity
