Abstract

A field study was carried out at Tangkak, Malaysia regarding Oryctes rhinoceros’s infestation and its natural enemies after being treated with selected pesticides from January until October 2017. The objective of this study to examine the effect of different insecticides usages with the presences of Oryctes rhinoceros including unteated area and population of Oryctes’s natural enemy in the oil palm areas of smallholders. Three treatments with four replicates were applied in the selected oil palm area, namely Cypermethrin, Carbofuran and Untreated (without chemical). Twelve smallholders with three different insecticides used were chosen randomly and twelve samples were taken as replicates. Effects of the beetles’ population over the chemical’s treatments were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) (SPSS - version 23). The results dramatically revealed that the least presence of Oryctes rhinoceros was detected at Untreated area with total mean of 0.21, followed by Carbofuran with total mean of 2.63 and Cypermethrin with 3.12. The result of this study indicated that Oryctes rhinoceros in Tangkak, Johor has developed resistance to the insecticides used by the growers due to high frequency of similar type of chemical. These insecticides had no significant effect towards the natural enemy found in oil palm area in Tangkak which is Platymeris laevicollis. These natural enemies also showed no relationship directly with the presences of Oryctes rhinoceros due to low diversity of plant species or particularly lack of shelter.
