“…The available information is resistance mechanism related to morphological characters of plants that would obstructing or completely restricting the entry, penetration and feeding of insects on some clones (Sanghera and Kumar, 2018). Morfological characters (thickness of leaf midrib, leaf breadth) and biochemical properties (such as reducing sugar) had been related to the incidence of top borer (Roy et al, 2019) as well as fertilizer application with the top borer incidence (R. . In this study, we used sugarcane varieties commonly grown in Indonesia.…”

In Indonesian sugarcane plantations, the infestation severity by the sugarcane shoot borer, Scirpophaga excerptalis, depends on the sugarcane variety and the presence of natural enemies. However, evaluating the resistance of sugarcane cultivars to borer infestations typically involves artificial infestations and laboratory assays that do not take into account the role of natural enemies, especially predatory ants, as a significant factor in the borer larvae's mortality. The predatory ants associated with sugarcane plants could prey on the shoot borer neonate larvae before the larvae reach the growth point of the sugarcane and cause damage. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of predatory ants on the natural infestation of sugarcane top borer across five varieties of sugarcane, thereby filling a void in the current research concerning the screening of shoot-borer resistance. The study was conducted in sugarcane plantation at Asembagus, East Java, Indonesia. The symptoms of shoot borer infestation on leaves and dead hearts, as well as the number of predatory ants on the sample units were recorded. Top borer infestations varied in intensity across all five sugarcane varieties. Predatory ants and the survival rate of S. excerptalis neonate larvae were closely correlated. Among the five sugarcane varieties, BL had the lowest number of predatory ants and was the most favorable environment for top borer neonate larvae. Predatory ants play a significant role in determining the fate of the shoot borer on sugarcane plants and provide insight into a variety's susceptibility.

One of the technological innovations that is very relevant for the implementation of IPM is habitat manipulation using refugia plants to conserve predatory insect. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different species of Refugia plants on the diversity and species richness of predator on potato plants and their production yields. The research method used was a field experimental method with a randomized block design with 5 treatments of Refugia plant species repeated 3 times. The data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and are further tested by Honest Significant Difference (BNJ) analysis at a significance level of 5 percent. The results showed that nine predatory species were found in refugia and potato plants, namely Crytoleamus montrouzieri, Cocinella transversalis, Coleophora inaequalis, Monocielus sexmaculatus, Axion plagiatum, Coleophora reniplagiata, Illeis koebelei, Mantidae and Formicidae. The insect diversity index (H') of the predators found was rated as moderate for all treatments, ranging from 1.2 to 1.9.

“…During the execution of the algorithm for K-means, it requires the input of the dataset and the number of points in the dataset, the K-value, in advance; and if the initial centres are not specified, then the initial test centres are selected randomly. If the points selected are in the same category or are isolated, different clustering results will occur [20].…”

As the economy and society are developing and changing continuously, the garden industry is also developing and changing. The landscape industry has become a major focus of research on how to bring the training methods of the landscape technology profession more in line with the changing times, and how to make the training methods more in line with the needs of the industry by using modern personnel training methods. And it is important to find a good k-means algorithm to match the development of landscape engineering professionals. In this experiment, a combination of telephone interviews and questionnaires was used to ask questions about the landscape engineering profession. The respondents were the principals of the enterprise or relevant technical personnel. They learned what abilities the landscape engineering professionals needed by the society should have, and then the components were appropriate. The teaching system is used to conduct experimental teaching for landscape engineering majors, and there is also a landscape engineering professional control group for comparative analysis. The experimental results show that 27.45% of the students in the experimental group have 60–70 credits, while only 10.34% of the students in the control group have credits in this interval. The gap between the students in the two classes is very large, mainly because the experimental group pays attention to the combination of practice; practice and theory can better promote students’ mastery and application of professional knowledge. Moreover, 66.67% of the students in this experimental group found jobs in their majors. It can be seen from this that this system of cultivating talents for landscape engineering is very useful.
