CONTROL HUMAN RIGHTS WITH PESTICIDES VEGETABLES

Today many farmers experience obstacles in developing agricultural business. One of the obstacles is the rat pest attack (Rattus argentiventer). Rats are the main pest of rice crop (Oryza sativa L.) which can decrease the production yield is high enough. In general, mice (Rattus argentiventer) live in paddy fields and surrounding areas, have the ability to breed very rapidly. Theoretically, one pair of rats capable of breeding to 1270 tails per year. Although this situation is rare, it illustrates, how rapidly the population of rats in a year (Harysaksono et al: 2008).
Damage and decline in rice production is very large due to rodent attacks and difficult to control. This is due to the rat activity at night. Mice can directly damage the search for food when the plants have begun to bear fruit while indirectly the rats damage the stems of rice plants only to sharpen the front teeth. The damage caused by rat pests can be seen on the cut rice rods and form 45oC and still have the remaining parts of the stems are not cut off. With the condition of damage and rapid increase in rat population will drastically reduce production output.

Based on the experience experienced by farmers in the village of bluek arab, sub district peukan baro district pidie that the crop they cultivate the results do not always achieve maximum results. This is due to a rodent attack they are unable to control. Farmers confess that to overcome this problem they use a mousetrap (trap plastic) at the places of entry of mice and do cleaning around the planting place. However, the business can not reduce pest rats, so farmers use chemical pesticides obtained at a high price, but the result is nil because farmers use chemical pesticides with excessive doses with the assumption that more and more doses are given faster to control pest rats. But it turns out that with such a dose will make pest rats become resistant, can cause poisoning in the harvest and can cause new pests for plants. Both ways are not able to reduce the pest attack of mice so it takes a natural control that utilizes the materials that exist in nature.
Vegetable pesticides are pesticides made by utilizing natural ingredients that exist around us to control plant-disturbing organisms, such as plants. Vegetable pesticides have the advantage: they are relatively safe, environmentally friendly, cheap and easy to obtain, do not cause poisoning and will not cause pests to become resistant. While the shortcomings of its use must be repeated, not the old soil, its power is slow and does not kill the pest directly.
As Michael E. Stans (1982) points out in Hamundu, said that counseling is essentially a process of stimulating from teachers to those taught, so that it can lead to cognitive, effective and psychomotoric changes. Therefore, the use of vegetable pesticides to control pest rats needs to be socialized at the farm level by involving the government, from the provincial level (Ministry of Agriculture of Aceh) to the Village (Village Counselor).
