The low productivity of crops due to declining soil quality, use of synthetic pesticides that are
less wise in pest control, caused by farmers who do not pay attention to agro ecosystem and
application of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in cropping areas. Significantly, the above
factors causing pest resistance to synthetic pesticides, pesticide residues, environmental
pollution and the loss of soil nutrient. Therefore it is extremely wise if the pest control is done
by using an integrated suppression control system.
PT. Reka Desa has an initiative to develop this system by optimizing the function of the
farmers as an understanding of living things in relation to the environment, so that absolutely
demanded a foresight and prudence in all decisions making and actions on their farming land.
The methods will be developed in an example field using good and appropriate organic
farming techniques. Application of cultivation include land preparation, seed selection,
planting, crop maintenance and harvest handling combined into an integrated suppression in
the management of plant pests. Each phase will be controlled manually and naturally to
maintain the balance ecosystems.
Its implementation include the processing of land manually with the addition of animal
manure and previously plant residues as an effort to improve soil quality and microorganisms,
seeds planting / seedlings originating from a healthy mother plants, the use of planting areas
with intercropping methods, bio pesticides plant and host plants that enrich the biological
diversity, as well corps maintenance and environmentally-based of harvest handling. Once
these phases were completed, the development of pest on each phase then will be evaluated as
an indicator of the success of this method.

2. This method is expected to be accessed by the vegetable farmers who can learn directly in the
field (learning by doing) after seeing the results and impact of its application. The output
expected from this method is the implementation of crop cultivation, which in its application
adapted to environmental conditions, in order to avoid drastic changes in the ecosystem so it
is not to interfere and decide on the chain of living beings. The Increase of awareness and
understanding of the importance of vegetable farmers maintain and improve the productivity
of the land to support sustainable farming systems and encourage the increased biological
cycles in farming systems involving soil, plants, animals, flora and fauna in the ecosystem.
