Abstract

The current public perception concerning land use change is, whenever forest is converted to agricultural land, the forest functions would drasticaly decrease. Studies have shown that soil loss in coffee based systems varied widely and it could be much lower than the tolerable soil loss level, depending on soil properties. This research was conducted to determine the dominant factors of soil properties in influencing soil loss. This analysis was based on data collected from a 3-site (Laksana, Tepus and Bodong Sub-Village of Sumberjaya Village, West Lampung) erosion study in 2001/2002. Observation of soil properties for each site was carried out by soil profile description and quantitative laboratory analyses for several soil physical properties and organic C content. Samples were collected from three soil depths namely 0-10, 10-20 and 20-40 cm. The resultsindicated that soil physical properties were dominant factors determining soil loss level in coffee-based farming system in Sumberjaya. The erosion on soil with mean total porosity of > 65%, macro pore of > 24%, and soil permeability of > 9 cm hr-1 was < 2 t ha-1 yr-1. Whereas erosion of soil with porosity of < 60%, macro pore of < 13%, and soil permeability of < 3 cm hr-1 was 37 t ha-1 for 3 months. These results suggested that soilconservation recommendation, particularly for Sumberjaya coffeebasedsystems, should not be imposed uniformly across sites. Site-specific soil property characterization and hence evaluation of soil susceptibility to erosion should precede recommendation and implementation emphasized only on erosion-prone sites.

Abstract

Forest conversion to coffee-based farming systems has raised concern among many stakeholders since it may create serious impact to the deterioration of forest functions, declining soil productivity in particular and land degradation in general. Study on the impact of forest conversion on changes of soil quality, and the role of coffee for soil quality recovery has been conducted at Bodong and Laksana Sub Village of Sumberjaya Village, West Lampung. In Laksana, the observed landuse consisted of young (< 3 years) coffee plantation, mature (> 10 years) coffee, mix farming (multistrata), caliandra and forest, while in Bodong are young and mature coffee plantations and forest. The soil quality parameters used in this experiment were soil organic matter status and soil physical properties. Changes of soil quality as affected by forest conversion to coffee farming depends on soil resistance (resilience to structural break down). Soils with low resistance are easier to degrade than those with high soil resistance. The mix (multistarata) system shows better impact on soil quality than monoculture system does.
