Abstract: The
research regarding the natural insecticide capacity of squeeze combination of
cassava (DioscoreahispidaDennst) and tobacco’s extract has been done. The
purposes are to measure the capacity of squeeze combination of cassava and
tobacco’s extract as a natural insecticide and to determine the most effective
combination as natural insecticide. Its method was the laboratory experiments
by using squeeze cassava and tobacco’s extract with the comparison ratio (in
mL) as follow; 0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75 : 25, and 100 : 0. The using of various
comparisons is to determine the most effective combination as natural
insecticide. The data were analyzed by the statistical test analysis of
variance (ANOVA) with a 95% confidence level. The result shows that the squeeze
combination of cassava and tobacco’s extract reduce the capacity of natural
insecticide which is dioscorin compound in cassava and nicotin in
tobacco.However, the most effective treatment to kill rice pest is the mixture
of cassava and tobacco 0 mL : 100 mL, and also 100 mL : 0 mL.
