The role of shading trees in coffee farms has been well understood to establish suitable condition for the growth of coffee trees, on the other hand their role in nitrogen cycle in coffee farming is not yet well understood. The objectives of this study are to investigate the influence of various legume shading trees on the concentration of soil mineral N (N-NH4 + and N-NO3-), potential nitrification and to study the controlling factors of nitrification under field conditions. This field explorative research was carried out in Sumberjaya, West Lampung. Twelve observation plots covered four land use systems (LUS), i.e. 1) Coffee agroforestry with Gliricidiasepium as shade trees; 2) Coffee agroforestry with Gliricidiaas shade trees and Arachis pintoias cover crops; 3)Coffee agroforestry with Paraserianthes falcataria as shade trees; and 4) Mixed/multistrata coffee agroforestry with Gliricidiaand other fruit crops as shade trees. Measurements of soil mineral-N concentration were carried out every three weeks for three months. Results showed that shade tree species in coffee agroforestry significantly affected concentrations of soil NH4 +, NO3- and potential nitrification. Mixed coffee agroforestry had the highest NH4+/N-mineral ratio (7.16%) and the lowest potential nitrification (0.13 mg NO2-kg-1 hour -1 ) compared to other coffee agroforestry systems using single species of leguminous shade trees. Ratio of NH4 + /N-mineral increased 0.8—21% while potential nitrification decreased 55—79% in mixed coffee agroforestry compared to coffee agroforestry with Gliricidia or P. falcatariaas shade trees. Coffee agroforestry with P. falcatariaas shade trees had potential nitrification 53% lower and ratio of NH4 + /N-mineral concentration 20% higher than that with Gliricidia. Coffee agroforestry with P. falcataria as shade trees also had organic C content 17% higher, total N 40% higher, available P 112% higher than that with Gliricidia. The presence of A. pintoiin coffee agroforestry with Gliricidiareduced 56% potential nitrification but increased 19.3% of NH4+/N-mineral concentration. The low soil potential nitrification in the mixed coffee agroforestry had close relationship with the high content of soil organic matter. Key words : Nitrogen-mineral, nitrification, shading trees, agroforestry, Coffea canephora, nitrate, organic matter, intercropping,Gliricidia sepium, Arachis pintoi, Paraserianthes falcataria.

Sejak 2016 Universitas Brawijaya memperoleh mandat dari Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup Kehutanan Republik Indonesia untuk mengelola kawasan hutan dengan tujuan khusus menjadi Hutan Pendidikan dan Pelatihan bernama UB Forest. Kawasan UB Forest (541 ha) awalnya berupa kawasan produksi dengan tanaman utama pinus, mahoni dan suren. Dalam perkembangannya, sekitar 70% dari luasan UB Forest telah bergeser menjadi lahan agroforestri (AF) berbasis kopi. Petani kopi di UB Forest menghadapi 2 masalah utama yaitu (1) penurunan kesuburan tanah akibat manajemen lahan yang tidak tepat dan (2) produksi kopi yang rendah (100-400 kg/ha) akibat tutupan kanopi pinus yang rapat sehingga cahaya matahari yang diterima tanaman kopi menjadi rendah. Oleh karena itu, civitas akademik UB melakukan penelitian bersama tentang “Perbaikan Manajemen Cahaya dan Ketersediaan Hara untuk pohon Kopi di UB Forest” yang hasilnya disampaikan kepada petani melalui kegiatan pengabdian masayarakat (PKM). Tujuan PKM antara lain: (1) Transfer ilmu pengetahuan tentang pengaturan cahaya dengan memangkas cabang pohon kopi dan penaungnya; (2) Membangun semangat dan memotivasi kelompok tani hutan (KTH) untuk mengelola lahan AF kopi; (3) Mengajak KTH untuk meningkatkan kesuburan tanah dan produksi kopi sekaligus menjaga lingkungan UB Forest; (4) Mendapatkan umpan balik dari petani kopi tentang hasil penelitian sebelumnya dan menggali informasi penelitian yang dibutuhkan petani untuk masa yang akan datang. Hasil kegiatan pendampingan menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan dan peran aktif petani dalam: (1) pengelolaan pohon penaung sebagai upaya optimalisasi intensitas cahaya untuk tanaman kopi, dan (2) perbaikan manajemen pemupukan melalui pengolahan residu panen kopi menjadi pupuk organik, dan aplikasinya untuk mengurangi penggunaan pupuk anorganik.

Conversion of forests into agricultural land is one of the environmental problems currently being faced, leading to various environmental challenges including the decline in soil health. One effort to improve land management and slow down land degradation is to plant various types of trees and intercrops through an agroforestry system. Agroforestry is considered a viable strategy to gradually create a conducive microclimate for soil biota that can improve the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil. The biomass of microorganisms as quantified – Microbial Biomass Nitrogen (MBN) and Microbial Biomass Carbon (MBC) – has been proposed as sensitive indicator of soil change. This research aimed to understand how MBN responds to agroforestation of Imperata grasslands in Solok Regency, West Sumatra (Indonesia). Fields of eight land use types (in three replications each) were sampled in the Juli-August 2024 period. Plot characteristics such as canopy cover were measured, to compare with MBN and MBC for soil at a depth of 0-10 cm. The results showed statistically significant differences in MBN and MBC in various land uses, that match differences in canopy cover and age of agroforestry systems. A 1% increase in canopy cover could increase soil MBN levels with 0.94 mg kg-1 (R2 = 0.90). The C:N ratio for microbial biomass varied in the 2-6 range, with the lowest values for intensively cropped land, and the highest for existing or recently converted Imperata grasslands.

The spread of Imperata cylindrica in agricultural lands is often associated with a decline in soil fertility, causing crops to be outcompeted by Imperata cylindrica. This study aimed to evaluate land cover, litter biomass, and soil infiltration rates in lands previously occupied by Imperata cylindrica that had been reclaimed with coffee-based agroforestry in Nagari Sirukam, Solok Regency, West Sumatra. The survey on volcanic soils was conducted in July-August 2024. The results showed that natural remnant forests (HT) had the highest canopy cover at 69%, while multistrata agroforestry (AFMT) had a canopy cover of 37%. The highest standing litter was found in multistrata agroforestry (3.1 Mg ha-1), while at HT had 0.6 Mg ha-1 only. The highest infiltration rate was found in Imperata cylindrica grassland (AF0) with 0.072 cm sec-1, due to the dense rhizomes, while multistrata agroforestry had an infiltration rate that was 73% lower (averaged 0.02 cm sec-1). Although the infiltration rate was lower, agroforestry combined with fire control was effective in maintaining soil stability, reducing erosion, and improving soil quality sustainably, providing long-term benefits for soil and water conservation.

Soil degradation is an important problem affecting crop production, especially in cocoa agroforestry systems, where soil health is crucial for optimal results. However, the effect of land management on changes in soil organic matter (SOM) content is often not visible through measurements of total soil organic carbon (SOC) content. This study investigates the distribution of soil organic matter fractions across various land-use gradients and soil depths in cacao-based agroforestry landscapes in Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Soil samples were collected from three villages representing different parts of a watershed and subjected to density fractionation to separate light (LF), intermediate (IF), and heavy (HF) fractions. Our results indicate that remnant forests (RF) maintain higher total SOM fractions, followed by cacao-based complex and simple agroforestry (CAF, SAF), particularly in the 0-10 cm soil depth. In contrast, annual crops (CR), exhibit the lowest SOM fractions. Standing litter and decomposition rates significantly influence the LF, while HF shows minimal variation across land-use systems, suggesting long-term stability. The LF also strongly correlates with SOC content, highlighting its responsiveness to recent organic inputs. The findings underscore the importance of diverse litter inputs and tree diversity in enhancing SOM fractions and SOC content in agroforestry systems. The study concludes that complex cacao-based agroforestry systems can effectively mimic natural forest conditions, promoting soil health. These insights provide valuable knowledge for sustainable land management practices to mitigate soil degradation and improve soil quality in cacao production systems.

The local ecological knowledge of coffee agroforestry farmers regarding earthworms serves as one of the soil fauna indicators of soil fertility and quality. This knowledge is inherited through generations from observations and experiences of coffee farmers, sometimes differing from modern ecological knowledge. This study aims to analyze the relationship between farmers Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK) in simple coffee agroforestry systems and their socio-demographic characteristics; to examine their understanding of the ecological roles of earthworms and Lepidiota stigma; and to identify and assess the gap between Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK) and Modern Ecological Knowledge (MEK). Local ecological knowledge was obtained through in-depth interviews with coffee agroforestry farmers concerning soil management, the role of earthworms, and pests in maintaining soil quality on the slopes of Mount Tambora (NTB). In-depth interviews were conducted with key respondents and coffee agroforestry farmers grouped by gender, age, and educational background using predetermined questions. Based on interviews with 50 coffee farmers, the percentages of soil quality indicators recognized by them ranked as follows: earthworms (80%), soil color (74%), plant growth (36%), humus or litter (10%), and soil structure (6%). Furthermore, 72% (n=50) of coffee farmers indicated that soil organisms significantly influence soil fertility. This study highlights the scientific value of Local Ecological Knowledge in sustainable soil management and encourages its integration with modern science through participatory research.

Oil palm plantations face sustainability challenges with variable yields and significant greenhouse gas emissions. To optimize nutrient cycling while maintaining soil carbon stocks, this study investigated the effects of fertilization intensity and spatial management on organic matter decomposition. A factorial experiment in South Sumatra (Indonesia) used a completely randomized block design with three fertilization levels (low, intermediate, high). Decomposition was monitored in three spatial zones (weeded circle, frond stack, interrow) using litter bags over 52 weeks, with sequential harvesting at 13 time points. Soil properties, litter quality, and environmental factors were analyzed using ANOVA and regression models. Results showed decomposition constants ranging from 0.0180 to 0.0258 week?¹ and half-life times of 16 to 32 weeks, with high fertilization treatments accelerating decomposition by 28% but reducing soil carbon (2.05% to 2.77%) below the litter bags compared to low fertilization (4.37%). Frond stack zones exhibited 35% faster decomposition while maintaining higher carbon levels. The regression model combining soil and frond C/N ratios explained 73% of the variance in decomposition. These findings reveal trade-offs between rapid nutrient cycling and carbon storage, demonstrating that sustainable oil palm production requires precision spatial management rather than uniform high fertilization. This study recommends implementing reduced-intensity inorganic fertilization, avoiding nutrient application in frond stacking zones, and expanding organic matter placement in inter-row areas. Future research should prioritize quantifying belowground carbon dynamics and fine root turnover to develop management frameworks balancing immediate productivity with long-term sustainability.

Sago farmers from the Mooi tribe in Sorong Regency - Southwest Papua have consumed and cultivated sago for generations. This research aims to understand the local ecological knowledge (LEK) of sago farmers in managing their land to maintain soil quality in sago agroforestry, compared with modern/scientific environmental understanding. The survey was conducted from February to October 2021 in three sub-districts, Sorong Regency, using an exploratory descriptive method among Mooi sago farmers. Intact soil samples were taken to measure soil physical properties and disturbed soil samples to analyze soil chemical properties (pH, C-Organic, Total N, P, K, CEC, base saturation). The results of this research show that what sago farmers have in common with the unique habits of the Mooi tribe's harvest system is that they harvest enough sago starch to consume or sell if there is too much of it. According to sago farmers, the best land for growing sago is close to a water source and is not affected by soil biota and fertilization. and sago farmers will leave ella sago dregs on the land. Meanwhile, according to MEK, starch formation decreases in flooded land and the remaining sago dregs are very good for making compost and animal feed. In sago forests where sago grows naturally, the soil texture is dominated by silt, having a pH of 5.8-7.2; High total organic C 2.8-5.2%, P 14.08-66.44 mg/kg, K 755.3 – 1626.8 mg/kg, CEC 18-40 cmol(+)/kg, and base saturation 30 – 134%. These values are relatively higher than on land with a sago-based agroforestry system.

Agroforestry systems under rules of community-based forest management support local livelihoods in the Jangkok watershed, Lombok Island. One of the conditions from the forest authoritiesfor allowing agroforestry system is that it should maintain forest conditions. Since 1995 the Jangkok watershed has undergone rapid land use change, especially in the forest area. These changes led to a reduction of carbon stocks and thus to emission of CO2. This research aimed to: (1) Measure the carbon stocks in several land use system within the Jangkok watershed, (2) Assess the contribution of agroforestry systems in maintaining carbon stocks and reducing emissions. The assesment was performed based on the RaCSA (Rapid Carbon Stock Appraisal) method using three phases: (1) Classify land use change applying TM5 Landsat Satellite images for the period 1995-2009, (2) Measure carbon stock in the main land uses identified, (3) Quantify the contribution of agroforestry practices. Results showed that (1) The total amount of carbon stock at Jangkok watershed (19,088ha) was 3.69 Mt (193 Mg ha-1); about 23% of this stock found in the agroforestry systems (32% of the area),(2) Gross CO2 emission from the Jangkok watershed was 8.41 Mg ha-1 yr-1, but due to the net gain in agroforestry of 2.55 Mg ha-1 yr-1 the net emission became 5.86 Mg ha-1 yr-1 Keywords: agroforestry, carbon stocks, carbon emission rate
