This study aims to determine the multientomopathogenic potential of Streptomyces sp. and Trichoderma sp on EKG and GN media on feeding behavior of Spodoptera litura pests in vitro. 10 S. litura (2nd instar) were placed in a box then the larvae with each entomopathogenic treatment. Besides, feed as much as 5 grams for each box every day for 7 days. Observations were made by weighing the difference in daily feed weight for 7 days. Effect of treatment on feeding activity of Spodoptera sp. on the 7th day after application showed that EKGST 5: 1 treatment had the highest value due to the activity of the chitinase enzyme from Streptomyces sp. and Trichoderma sp. Calculation of the ability of chitin hydrolysis by the enzyme chitinase is done by calculating the diameter of the clear zone that is formed then reduced by the diameter of the blotting paper containing supernatant secondary metabolites. Chitinase testing was carried out to determine the ability of secondary metabolites produced by Streptomyces sp. and Trichoderma sp. in hydrolyzing chitin. The widest zone is produced by multientomopathogenic Streptomyces sp. and Trichoderma sp. in EKGST 5: 1 treatment 3cm. Damage to the digestive tract due to the chitinase enzyme causes a decrease in the ability to absorb nutrients that have an impact on the reduced activity of Spodoptera litura. Keywords: Streptomyces sp., Trichoderma sp., Spodoptera litura, multientomopathogenic, Chitinase Introduction Spodoptera litura is one of the causes of biotic stress and is a major problem in increasing crop production. Grayak caterpillars are polyphagous pests that attack horticultural crops, especially mustard plants (Brassica sinensis). These pests can cause damage up to 85% can even cause crop failure due to damage to the leaves of plants. Declining productivity of mustard greens caused by S. litura larvae attacks is very detrimental to farmers. Symptoms of S. litura attack are similar to locust attack symptoms. Spodoptera litura feeds on the edges of the leaves to the leaf bones. Attacks on young plants can inhibit plant growth and can even kill plants. If efforts are not made to control pests properly, then the farmers will experience significant losses (Azwana and Adikorelsi, 2009). Farmer's preference for using pesticides to control plant pests carries several risks. The active ingredients contained in pesticides can cause the possibility of water and soil pollution. The use of pesticides excessively and continuously will harm the environment, such as environmental residues that Corresponding author Email address: penta_s@upnjatim.ac.id
