Overview of Waste Handling and Fly Density in Pagimana Market

Abstract

Sampah saat ini menjadi masalah penting bagi tatanan kebijakan Nasional dan daerah di Indonesia. Keberadaan sampah dapat memberikan pengaruh Kesehatan bagi masyarakat karena sampah merupakan sarana dan sumber penularan penyakit. Pengaruh sampah terhadap Kesehatan secara tidak langsung dapat berupa penyakit bawaan vektor yang berkembang biak di dalam sampah salah satunya lalat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh gambaran penangan sampah mulai dari gambaran penanganan sampah, pengumpulan sampah, pengangkutan sampah dan kepadatan lalat di Pasar Pagimana. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriptif, dengan jumlah 51 sampel, dibagi menjadi pedagang ikan 26 sampel, pedagang sayur 13 sampel, dan pedagang asongan 12. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukan bahwa proses pemilahan sampah dari 25 sampel tidak dilakukan, wadah sampah meski kedap air, namun tidak tertutup. Proses pengumpulan sampah sebanyak 26 pedagang (50,98%) dikumpulkan sendiri dan dibawa pulang untuk  diolah. Pengangkutan sampah dilakukan setiap hari jumat dari pasar ke TPA. Kepadatan lalat di Pasar Pagimana yaitu tinggi dengan nilai 31 (60,78%) rendah sebanyak 20 (39,22%). Berdasarkan hasil tersebut, diharapkan para pedagang sebaiknya melakukan pemilahan sampah, meyediakan wadah sampah tertutup, lalu proses pengangkutan sampah sebaiknya dilakukan sekali setiap hari, serta memperhatikan lokasi berdagang khususnya pedagang ikan yang basah dan mengundang datangnya lalat. 

Waste is currently an important problem for national and regional policies in Indonesia. The presence of waste can have a health impact on the community because waste is a means and source of disease transmission. The indirect effect of waste on health can be vector-borne diseases that breed in the waste, one of which is flies. This research aims to obtain an overview of waste handlers starting from descriptions of waste handling, waste collection, waste transportation and fly density at Pagimana Market. The method used in this research is descriptive, with a total of 51 samples, divided into 26 fish traders, 13 samples of vegetable traders, and 12 hawkers. The results of the research showed that the process of sorting waste from 25 samples was not carried out, although the waste containers were watertight, they were not closed. In the waste collection process, 26 traders (50.98%) collected it themselves and took it home to be processed. Waste transportation is carried out every Friday from the market to the landfill. The density of flies at Pagimana Market was high with a value of 31 (60.78%) and low at 20 (39.22%). Based on these results, it is hoped that traders should sort waste, provide closed waste containers, then the process of transporting waste should be carried out once every day, and pay attention to trading locations, especially fish traders, that are wet and attract flies.
