Abstract
Abstract The negative effects of global warming will affect most living organisms, including plant disease pests. Climate variables such as temperature, rainfall, humidity, and gas atmosphere will interact with living things / plants in various ways with various mechanisms. Changes in temperature and concentration of CO2 affect living things / plants directly in terms of tissue and photosynthesis allocation of specific organs and indirectly through changes in geographical distribution and population dynamics of plant disease pests. Increased temperatures will cause insects / pests to become more abundant, there is a strong link between outbreaks of plant pest and climate variability. The model of the relationship of climate parameters with pest attacks of plant diseases can be used as an early warning adaptation technology to prevent the occurrence of pest attacks, so that crop losses can be reduced. The concept of this paper is the importance of building early warning of pest attacks based on climate equation models with OPT attacks, so that climate prediction data can be utilized, and yield losses due to OPT attacks can be suppressed. In addition, in order for the system to develop and be sustainable, the development of an early warning system needs the integration of several related agencies.
