Abstract

Abstract: The world market demand for Arabica coffee is relatively high at this time, South of Sulawesi had the opportunity to return to its glory in the 19th century as the largest exporter of Arabica coffee from the Dutch East Indies outside Java island in Indonesian to several countries. One factor to consider is the presence of production inhibitors, which is the threat potential of pests. So far, there are no precise data on the distribution and intensity of the major pest attack in each area of coffee in South Sulawesi. This makes decision-making for pest management and crop management challenging under different climatic and geographic conditions. Thus, this study aims to identify and analyze the main types of pest that attack coffee plants according to their location, climate and geographic conditions. The exploration of arthropod abundance in the field involves four methods: direct observation, sweep net, light trap, and direct observation techniques. Observations for 5 weeks of observation. The diversity of arthropods was observed in the coffee culture using Sweep Net, Pitt Fall, Light Trap and direct observation traps. The value of the Shannon Index Diversity Index (H') was 2.9490 or moderate ecosystem. This shows that environmental conditions, productivity, ecosystem conditions, and ecological pressures in the coffee plantation area in Bontotenga Village are still quite balanced. According to their role in nature, the density of populations revealed the composition of pest insects 59%, natural enemies (predators and parasitoids) 38% and pathogenic vectors 3% of individuals found 586 individuals.
