This study aims to determine the anti-termite potency of agricultural waste material that has not been used optimally, such as root and stem bark of tobacco and snackfruit rind to increase its economic value. The research conducted at the Laboratory of Agricultural Faculty Agroekoteknologi Trunojoyo. The study was designed based on completely randomized design (CRD) with 3 replication. The observation parameter is the number of termite mortality and weight reduction in test paper which is used as temite bait. The results showed that the extract of root and stem bark Madura tobacco and snackfruit rind cause termite mortality was not significantly different ie consecutive 77.3% and 81.3% classified as strong termite. During the activity test there is no weight reduction test paper so that termite mortality effect could be due to toxic effects of extract contacts.
Fenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui potensi anti rayap bahan-bahan yang belum dimanfaatkan secara optimal seperti akar
dan batang tembakau serta kulit salak sehingga diharapkan dapat menambah nilai ekonomi limbah kedua tanaman ini. Penelitian dilakukan di Laboratorium Agroekoteknologi Fakultas Pertanian Universitas Trunojoyo. Penelitian dirancang berdasarkan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 3 kali ulangan. Parameter pengamatan adalah jumlah kematian rayap dan pengurangan bobot kertas uji yang dijadikan umpan rayap. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak akar dan batang tembakau serta kulit salak Madura menyebabkan mortalitas rayap yang tidak berbeda nyata yaitu berturut-turut 77.3 % dan 81.3 % tergolong anti rayap kuat. Selama uji aktifitas, tidak terjadi pengurangan berat kertas uji sehingga efek mortalitas rayap diduga t€erjadi akibat efek racun kontak ekstrak uji.
