The angsana plant is one of the plants that can successfully grow on critical land such as post-mining land. Microenvironmental factors such as soil moisture, soil temperature, light, and soil pH have a role in influencing plant growth. It is important to monitor the microenvironment to see the response to plant growth, especially on critical land where not all plants can grow and survive in th…
Water balance provides an overview of the condition of water deficit or surplus. Water balance is closely related to climatic conditions, so climate greatly affects the water balance. In knowing the water balance, it is necessary to know the evapotranspiration value, in this study the evapotranspiration value is obtained using the Penman-Monteith equation using the CROPWAT 8.0 Model application…
Ultisol is known as a soil type with low organic matter and nutrient content, high acidity, and low fertility. This type of soil is usually deficient in essential nutrients such as N, P, K, Ca, and Mg. Therefore, organic fertilizers play a crucial role in improving plant productivity, especially in soils with low nutrient content. This study aims to analyze the effect of Liquid Organic Fertiliz…
Site-specific fertilization is very important for rice plant growth. Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K) which are essential macronutrients that are needed precisely by rice plants in order to grow optimally. This study aims to determine the availability of N, P, K nutrients and determine the appropriate fertilizer dosage based on the N P K nutrient content for rice fields in Purwodadi …
Ultisol is a soil that has soil characteristic constraints that can inhibit plant growth and low P nutrient content, and low organic matter content. This study aims to analyze the effect of liquid fertilizer from bamboo rhizosphere and compost-biochar on the availability of P nutrients and the growth and production of caisim (Brassica juncea L.) plants on Ultisol. This research was conducted in…
Ultisol soils have low nutrient content, especially organic matter. One of the efforts to increase its fertility is the use of organic fertilizer from bamboo roots. Rhizobacteria in the root zone can fix free nitrogen from the air, increase the availability of N nutrients, and reduce N loss due to leaching. Compost plays a role in improving soil structure, while biochar can increase pH and reta…
Peat ecosystems are characterized by the accumulation of organic material that is partially decomposed due to anaerobic conditions. The decomposition of organic matter in peat soils is influenced by the presence of microbes. The total population and diversity of microbes in peat soil is one of the indicators of peat quality. This study aims to determine the distribution of total microbes and th…
Peat has a high carbon content due to the large amount of organic matter that has accumulated over a long period of time. Carbon levels can be measured by calculating biomass and carbon above the soil surface in trees, litter, and dead wood (necromass). This study aims to estimate the amount of carbon stored in 14year-old oil palm plants in peatland of PT. Waimusi Agroindah, Mesuji Raya Distric…
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is an annual crop that has the potential to absorb carbon emissions. In oil palm plantations, it is common to find weeds of various species that grow under stands of oil palm trees (understory) and litter. Undergrowth in oil palm plantations can be a land cover plant as well as a significant carbon store in addition to oil palm plants themselves. Peatlands hav…
Peatlands are ecosystems that have environmental functions, economic value, and ecological value. Peatlands are soils that form naturally from the weathering of vegetation that has grown on them over many years. Vegetation in swamp ecosystems can utilize the process of carbon anchoring to produce a lot of plant biomass both above the ground and on the surface. Oil palm plants are able to genera…
Peatland is land that has a layer of soil that is not perfectly decomposed which is rich in organic matter (C-organic > 18%) with a thickness of 50 cm or more. The organic matter that makes up peat soil is formed from plant remains that have not completely decomposed due to saturated water and poor nutrient conditions. This study aims to determine the characteristics of peatland in the Faculty …
Soil fertility is the ability of the soil to provide essential nutrients in available form and in an appropriate balance. Mining often causes environmental damage, including decreasing soil quality. This thesis aims to evaluate soil fertility on post-mining land and provide recommendations for land rehabilitation to make it productive again. Objectives The aim of this research is to determine t…
Ultisol soils are nutrient poor, especially nitrogen. Urea fertilization is often less efficient, so organic fertilizers such as humic acid and biochar are needed to improve soil fertility.
