  • Farmers take control of Spodoptera litura using chemical pesticides that can stick to plants, but farmers have not used organic pesticides in pest control. The use of organic pesticides needs to be maximized by farmers with proper concentration. This study aims to determine the influence of various concentrations of basil leaf extract (Ocimum sanctum) against the mortality of Spodoptera Litura. This type of research is true experimental research. The total sample of 480 tail Spodoptera litura instar II, which is divided into 6 treatment groups is 0%, 25%, 35%, 45%, 55%, and 65% with 4 times the repetition. The sampling techniques used are simple random sampling. Research conducted in the Biology Laboratory of Muhammadiyah Malang University. The study took place on 23-27 December 2019. Analyze data with Anova's one-line test and difference of real-life distance of Duncan (BJND) to. The results showed that there was the influence of the most effective basil leaf extract concentration for Spodoptera litura is a concentration of 65% with an average mortality of 18.2 (91.25%).
