Abstract

The agricultural sector faces dual challenges of declining soil fertility and unsustainable waste accumulation. This study examines the synergistic effects of fly ash (FA) and plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) on the growth and physiological performance of maize (Zea mays L.) under controlled (potted) conditions. FA, a coal combustion by-product rich in essential minerals, was applied at varying doses (1–4 t ha-1) to assess its potential as a soil amendment with a bacterial strain (BSNK7) inoculated to enhance nutrient uptake and mitigate stress. Results showed a significant increase in fresh and dry biomass, leaf area, and chlorophyll content in treated plants. The combined application of 1 t ha-1 FA in conjunction with PGPB significantly increased fresh biomass by 1.57%, dry biomass by 0.94%, leaf area by 2.21%, and higher chlorophyll content compared to control (FA 0 t ha-1 and without bacteria). In contrast, FA 4 t ha-1, when applied without bacterial inoculation, resulted in reduced fresh biomass by 19.94% and dry biomass by 17.39%, respectively, compared to the control (FA 0 t ha-1 and without bacteria) which indicates the creation of toxicity at elevated doses. These findings suggest that the integrated use of low-dose FA and PGPB can sustainably enhance maize growth while minimizing environmental risks. The Application of appropriate doses of FA with PGPB can increase crop productivity and soil health simultaneously. Further field-based studies are recommended to validate scalability, optimize application rates, and assess the long-term impacts on soil health impacts.

Abstract

Soil quality is the ability of the soil to perform its function, such as providing nourishment to the plants. However, intensive paddy farming, such as Hazton’s paddy farming method, is suspected to deteriorate soil quality status and degrade land sustainability. This study aimed to analyze soil quality under Hazton’s paddy farming. This study was conducted on paddy fields in Banyumas Regency using a randomized block design with treatment consisting of 1) conventional method as a control, 2) Hazton’s method + organic fertilizer, 3) Hazton’s method + organic fertilizer + decomposer, and 4) Hazton’s method + organic fertilizer + decomposer + leaf fertilizer. Soil quality was determined according to a minimum data set (MDS) that consisted of organic C, pH, total N, available phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), base saturation (BS), cation exchange capacity (CEC), bacterial density, soil respiration, and C/N ratio. The MDS was scored and calculated using the soil quality index formula and then classified from very low to very high (<0.19-1). This study highlighted that the soil quality in paddy farm using Hazton’s method in Banyumas Regency ranged from low (0.444) to very low (0.308). The application of organic fertilizer is not sufficient enough to refill the nutrient pool equal to harvested plant biomass. This leads to soil quality deterioration and affects land sustainability. Therefore, yield and biomass production should be included as soil quality indicators in future studies. Additionally, further soil degradation can be avoided by continuously assessing soil quality and the necessary conservation measures for preventing and minimizing further land degradation can be applied.

Abstract

Soil degradation is a major constraint to agricultural sustainability, particularly in areas characterised by diverse environmental conditions. Halong District, Balangan Regency, South Kalimantan Province, is characterised by heterogeneous land uses, soil types, slope variations, and variable rainfall patterns, which influence soil quality and degradation risks. This research aims to assess the potential for soil degradation concerning environmental diversity and its implications for sustainable integrated agriculture. The study highlights that differences in land use, from shifting cultivation to permanent farming, combined with acidic soils, steep slopes, and uneven rainfall distribution, increase vulnerability to erosion, nutrient depletion, and declining soil fertility. The results show that the Potential Soil Degradation Risk (PSDR) in the low-risk class (PSDR.II) covers 298.22 km2 (45.20%), followed by the intermediate-risk (PSDR.III) covering 335.15 km2 (50.79%), and the high-risk (PSDR.IV) covering 26.48 km2 (4.01%). Land use and slope are determining factors for PSDR, as indicated by ANOVA, DMRT, and correlation test results. Understanding these linkages is essential for designing site-specific land management practices that reduce degradation risks while improving agricultural productivity. The outcomes of this research are expected to provide scientific recommendations for stakeholders in developing sustainable agricultural management strategies, such as soil conservation, organic matter management, and integrated crop-livestock systems, to mitigate degradation risks and support long-term agricultural resilience in Halong District.
