The Feasibility of Malunggay leaves (Moringa Oleifera)and Chili fruit( Capsicum Frutescens) as PesticideABSTRACT:Pesticide making is popular nowadays and it is also very helpful in our world in the field of agriculture. Thus many people continue to experiment pesticides to produce better quality and quantity. Pesticide can be applied to the treatment of an organism, such as a crop or ornamental plant, against damage by other plants, insects, fungi, or animals.The researcher aims to produce pesticide out of malunggay leaves and chilli fruit which is known in our country. And is very useful to many people and also to have another alternatives of pesticide.The process in making pesticide was quite difficult and simple. First are you had to prepare all the materials needed .Second get the extract of the malunggay leaves and chilli fruit.Next , mix the the extract of the malunggay leaves and chilli fruit.After that store the solution in 5-7 days and aging process will then be continue.The data and observation gathered is clearly state that the malunggay leaves and chilli fruit as pesticide is easily be contaminated when aging and the researcher therefore conclude that the malunggay leaves and chili fruitisfeasible in making pesticide.CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTIONBackground of the Study:The Pesticide is a broad term that refers to any device, method, or chemicals that kill plants or animals that compete for humanitys food supply or are otherwise undesirable. A pesticide chemical can rarely be used as originally manufactured. The pesticide must be diluted with water, oil, air or chemically inactive solids so that it can be handled by application equipment and spreas evenly over the area to be treated. It includes cockroach killer.Malunggay called Malunggay in the Phippines, Sajina in the Indian Subcontinent, and Moringa in English, it is a popular tree. It grows wildly in a hot tropical climate. Both the leaves and fruits are very nutritious, which contain many vitamins like Vitamin C and other minerals.Chili, the name, which is spelled differently in many regionschili,chileandchilli. The term chili in most of the world refers exclusively to the smaller hot types of capsicum. It is a hot pepper. Even though chilis maybe though as vegetable, their culinary usage is, a generally spice, the part of the plant that is usually harvested is the fruit.The researcher conducted the study to find out if the malunggay leaves and chilli fruit could be utilized as a pesticide. And determines the effect of malunggay leaves and chilli fruit to the cockroach.Statement of the Problem:This study lies to find out the feasibility of malunggay leaves and chilli fruit as pesticide.(cockroach killer).1.Is there a difference on the effect of malunggay leaves and chilli fruit and the commercial pesticides in terms of:a.QUALITYb.ODORc.EFFECTIVITY/EFFECTHypothesis:NULL HYPOTHESISThere is no significant difference between the malunggay leaves and chilli fruit pesticide and the commercial pesticide.OPERATIONAL HYPOTHESISThere is significant difference between the malunggay leaves and chilli fruit pesticide to the commercial pesticide.Significance of the Study:Cockroaches are one of the pests in the country that carries bacteria to people. They give people diseases as well as it can harm and suffer from these diseases and causes death. So people must kill cockroach.On the other hand malunggay leaves and chilli fruit is also a good source of pesticide like capsaicin, rubefacient, sulphur-containing amino acids and others. Hot chillies makes effective the pesticide and it helps.Thus this study was conducted to utilize malunggay and chilli as necessary components to kill cockroach rather than just ignoring it.Scope and Limitation:The study was limited on what kind of pests will be used it is only the cockroach. It is also limited the expiration date of the malunggay leaves and chili fruit pesticide because it take days or weeks to produce a bad smell.Definition of Terms:CAPSAICIM- is an active component of chilli. It is an irritant for mammals including human, and producing a sensation of the pancreas of mice.RUBEFACIENT- is an active component of malunggay leaves. A substance for external application that produces a redness of the skin by causing dilation of capillaries and increase blood circulation.METHIONINE and CYSTINE- an amino acid. One of the sulphur containing proteinogenic amino acids.PESTICIDE- chemicals that kill plants or animals. It must be diluted with water, oil, air or chemically inactive solids.COCKROACH KILLER- chemicals that can kill cockroaches.CHAPTER 2: REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE:PESTICIDEThe Pesticide is a broad term that refers to any device, method, or chemicals that kill plants or animals that compete for humanitys food supply or are otherwise undesirable. Other pesticides such as derria, quassia, and tar oil followed but nineteenth-century were weak.PESTICIDE FORMULATIONSA Pesticide chemical can rarely be used as originally manufactured. The pesticide must be diluted with water, oil, air or chemically inactive solids so that it can be handled by application equipment and spreas evenly over the area to be treated. A single pesticide is often sold in several different formulations. The applicator should choose the formulation that will best hs requirements for a particular job. Considerations in making choice include effectiveness against the pests, habits of the pest, animal or surface to be protected. The final product is called a pesticide formulation and is ready to use either as packaged or diluted with water or other carriers.MALUNGGAY LEAVES AND CHILI FRUITMalunggay also known asHorseradishMalunggay in Philippines, Sajina in the Indian Subcontinent, and Moringain English, it is a popular tree. It grows very wildly in a hot tropical climate. Both the leaves and fuits are very nutritious, which may contain many vitamins like Vitamin C and other minerals. It contains the properties of galactagogue, rubefacient, antiscorcutic, diuretic, stimulant, purgative, antibiotic and antifugal. Malunggay is a good source of pesticide because it contain rubefacient. It is an active component of malunggay leaves. A substance for external application that produces a redness of the skin by causing dilation of capillaries and increase blood circulation.Chili, is which is spelled differently in many regions chilli, chile, and chilli. The term chilli in most of the world refers exclusively to the smaller hot types of capsaicim. It is a hot pepper. Eventhough chilis maybe though as vegetable, their culinary usage is, a generally spice, the part of the plant that is usually harvested is the fruit. Researchers used capsaicim from chillies to kill the nerve cells in the pancreas of mice. And Chili also contains hotness which can kill cockroaches.MANUFACTURING PESTICIDE:Manufacturing pesticide involves at least three separate activities. The active ingredients is first synthesize in a chemical factory, then formulated in the same plants or sent toa formulator, to prepare a liquid orpowder form. Synthesizing the pesticide is a complex chemical procedure. An emulsified formulation is usually concentrated to render transport casier, but granulated and dry pesticides are ready to use.CHAPTER 3: METHODOLOGYMaterialsIngredients*10 stalks of malunggay leaves*20 pieces of chilli fruit*100 ml distilled waterMethod of Research and Procedure:Method of ResearchThe method of research in this study was experimental method of research. The purpose was to study the relative effect of various set-ups:SET-UP A: The extract of the malunggay leavesSET-UP B: Theextract of the chili fruitSET-UP C: The mixture of the extract of the malunggay leaves and the Theextract of the chili fruit.Method of Collecting Data:The method of collecting data was a comparative survey. It was mainly concerned only on the effect of the cockroach between the malunggay leaves and chilli frit pesticide and the commercial pesticides. Researchers used the counting method. To count how many cockroaches eas unable to survive and die.Research Design:Common cockroaches are living outside or in sewers and come into houses. Cockroaches ar generally found first or either the attic or basements. Cockraoach carries a lot of bacteria that can give us diseases. Cockroach also distribute germs to entire of the house, especially into the kitchen. Cockroach is a pest that give people diseases. The Malunggay leaves and Chili fruit is an independent variable while the pesticide is the dependent variable.CHAPTER 4: RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONThis chapter shows the investigation of Malunggay leaves and Chili fruit as pesticide. The data was shown in tabular form. There are five tables that are shown.TRIAL 1TABLE 1:Cockroach tested with Malunggay leaves PesticideNumber of times sprayNumber of CockroachesNumber of Cockroaches killedTIME KILLED
