This study aims to determine the effect of temperature and storage time of neem formulation and residual test of neem formulation and bitung formulation to its toxicity on C. pavonana larvae. The formulations tested on the storability and temperature test using the newly prepared, neem formula has been stored for 19 months at room temperature 24.6-31,7 C, and stored in low temperature (4 degree Celsius) as well as controls. The toxicity of the neem oil formulation was tested at concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 3%. Residual testing was performed by spraying and the residual test samples were taken on days 0,1,2,3,5,7,9,11, and 13 days after application of insecticide spraying. The results showed that storage at low temperatures (temperature 4 degree Celsius) for 19 months can maintain the toxicity of the neem formulation to C. pavonana larvae. while storage at room temperature for 19 months resulted in a decreased toxicity. The residual activity of the neem formulations of concentration 0.8% and 2.4% ceased to cause the death C. pavonana larvae at the residual age of 13.34 days and 14.66 days. The activity of Bitung formulation concentration of 1.1% and 2.8% ceased to causing death C. pavonana larvae at the residual age of 11.33 days and 16.26 days.Keyword: Azadirachta indica, Baringtonia asiatica, Crocidolomia pavonana, Residue test, Storability test, Temperatures, Toxicity.
Effectiveness of pesticide affected by many factors such as physical environment and duration of storage. This study aims to determine the effect of temperature and storage time of formulation of neem 50 EC and residual effect of formulation of neem 50 EC and formulation of bitung 30 SC against C. pavonana larvae. The formulations tested on the experiment of effect storage time and temperature test using the newly prepared, neem formulation has been stored for 19 months at room temperature 24.6-31.7 o C, and stored in low temperature (4 o C) as well as controls. The toxicity of the neem oil formulation was tested at concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 3%. The experiment of residual effect was performed by spraying of the formulation on broccoli leaf, then the leaf samples were taken on days 0,1,2,3,5,7,9,11, and 13 days after application of insecticide. The results of the research indicated that storage at low temperatures (temperature 4 o C) for 19 months can maintain the toxicity of the neem formulation to C. pavonana larvae. while storage at room temperature for 19 months resulted in a decreased toxicity. The residual activity of the neem formulations at concentration of 0.8% and 2.4% were not caused mortality of C. pavonana larvae at the residual age of 13.34 days and 14.66 days. The activity of Bitung formulation at concentration of 1.1% and 2.8% were not caused mortality of C. pavonana larvae at the residual age of 11.33 days and 16.26 days.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
