Therefore, farmers need to be assisted with information and provided with information sources to control this virus attack. One of the methods is to inform farmers about this virus is through an interactive media in an animation form.

The developed prototype of the animation system has been tested and used by users (by respondents selected consisting of students, farmers, and agricultural extention workers). From the testing it was shown that the system is claimed to be easy to use, easy to understand, and useful Penyakit kuning yang disebabkan oleh Geminivirus pada tanaman cabai sangat merugikan petani karena dapat menyebabkan kehilangan hasil panen 20-100%. Oleh karena itu dibutuhkan sumber informasi bagi petani untuk dapat mengendalikan serangan virus ini. Salah satunya dengan penyampaian informasi menggunakan media interaktif dalam bentuk animasi.
