Abstract

Asian Citrus Pysillid (ACP), Diaphorina citri is one of the important pests in Citrus plantation. It as a vector of Candidatus liberibacter (CLs), caused Huanglongbing (HLB) diseased in citrus. Citrus is one the primary tropical fruit product in every region in Indonesia including in Java, Sumatera, and Kalimantan. Controlling of ACP in citrus is needed to increasing citrus production in Indonesia. As tropical country, Indonesia farmer has some practices that could be useful for controlling ACP including their intercropping model. The objectives of these research are to observe the best practice of intercropping citrus in Purworejo, Central Java and monitoring population of ACP in certain areas.

The research was conducted in central citrus production of Purworejo District, East Java Province, from July-December 2021. The direct observation was carried out biweekly in plantation from 06.00–10.00 AM, randomly on young leaves of citrus. Additionally, the population also monitored by placing yellow sticky trap on the plant. One side yellow sticky trap are placed in an edge of citrus canopy using 0.5 bamboo stick, which tied with plastic rope. The result showed that citrus inter cropping in Purworejo using several crops, including seasonal and annual plants. Those crops are rice, papaya, bean, cassava, chili, cucurbits, peanuts, and guava. The direct observation and sticky trapping resulted in no ACP was trapping during the periods. This condition reflected that populations of ACPs were low in intercropping plantation. Another way, intercropping gave a direct effect of controlling ACP since population goes lower time by time.
