dc.descriptionBananas represent a significant horticultural commodity in Indonesia, with East Kalimantan Province emerging as a vital producer, particularly in East Kutai Regency, where intensive cultivation of kepok bananas is prevalent. Despite the region's projected 2024 banana production of 88,358 tons, productivity remains subpar, averaging less than 10 tons per ha, well below the potential of 35-40 tons per ha. This study investigates the incidence of bacterial wilt, a significant challenge for banana cultivation in tropical regions, across three sub-districts in East Kutai: Bengalon, Kaliorang, and Kaubun. Using direct observation and in situ sampling methods, the research identified disease symptoms and documented bacterial wilt among smallholder farmers. Field surveys revealed disease incidence rates exceeding 50% in Keraitan and Sempayau villages, reflecting severe outbreaks, while the other villages reported lower yet concerning rates. The findings suggest a critical need for improved agricultural practices, including advanced management techniques and the use of resistant seed varieties, to enhance banana production and resilience against this disease, ultimately contributing to sustainable agricultural output in the region.en
