Title: Lemongrass (Cymbopogon Citratus) Pesticide

as Alternative Terminator Against Ladybugs

(Coccinellidae) and Plant bugs (Miridae)
 INTRODUCTION
Resistance against insect pests is one of
the most promising and highly favored
characteristics of an economically
important crop.
Lemongrass pesticide is a pure and safe insect repellent. It is
highly useful as an insect repellant because of its scent and
antimicrobial effects. In a research study, extracts and essential oil
from lemongrass repels insects.
farmers in Negros Occidental losses
amount of PHP 11.544 million brought
by pests in the past few months.
Survival Rate
Pesticide is commonly used in order to prevent bugs
from destroying any kinds of crops. Given the costs
associated with using chemical alternatives on the
environment, natural pesticides have several
advantages over synthetic ones.
lemongrass pesticide's active ingredient could
kill any kind of bug or pest.
HYPOTHESIS (ALTERNATIVE)

The feasibility of lemongrass as a main component in making an

alternative and an effective pesticide has significant different/s in terms
of:

a. Terminating Pests
b. Health Risks
c. Availability of the Plant
d. Value/Price
HYPOTHESIS (NULL)

The feasibility of lemongrass as a main component in making an alternative

and an effective pesticide has no significant different/s in terms of:

a. Terminating Pests
b. Health Risks
c. Availability of the Plant
d. Value/Price
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
What are the components on making alternative pesticide using lemongrass?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of lemongrass pesticide?

Is lemongrass a good alternative pesticide against ladybugs and plant bugs?

How feasible is the lemongrass as a main component in making alternative and an effective pesticide
in terms of :
• Terminating Pests
• Health Risk
• Availability of the Plant
• Value/Price
Is there any significant difference between lemongrass pesticide and other pesticide in terms of :
• Effectivity in Terminating Pests
• Price
SIGNIFICANCE

Future Researchers : for new knowledge about lemongrass pesticide

Environment : able to reduce the population of bugs that harm plants

Agriculturist : improve the production of vegetables supplies

CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

Process:
Extraction of lemong grass oil w
Neem oil

Output:
Input: Lemon grass stalk Efficacy of natural pesticide made
from lemon grass
METHODS
 TESTING

STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Feasability of lemongrass in terms of
terminating the pests, health risks,
availability of the plant, and value and price
as a main component in making alternative
and an effective pesticide were determined .
ANOVA will determine whether the
different samples is feasible or not. The
ANOVA test provides a global assessment of
a statistical difference in more than two
independent means.
