Abstract

The decline in the fertility rate of intensive agricultural land and the deterioration of environmental quality has resulted in lower supply of food. The focus of agricultural development is partly directed to ensure sustainable food availability, both quantity and quality. Land use whose quality or designation is not in accordance with the suitability of the land will cause failure or damage to the land resources. Increased production of sweet potato continues to be cultivated, one of which is through evaluation of sweet potato plants on Alfisol soil. Alfisol is a type of soil that is quite potential for agriculture. The study aimed to determine the potential yield of sweet potato plants on Alfisol soil. The experiment was conducted using a Randomized Block Design with 3 replications, 13 sweet potato clones namely Kuning Putih, BIS OP-61-OP-22, 73-6/2, Beta 1, Beta 2, Kuning Merah, 73 OP-8, BIS OP- 61, 73 OP-5, Sari, Boko, Jago, BIS OP-61-?-29 and Sub Plots: Biochar (B0 = Without Biochar, B1 = 5 tons/ha). The variables observed included: the number of tubers/plots, fresh weight of tubers (kg/plot), fresh weighted stem (kg/plot),% dry weight of tubers,% dry weight of stover, tuber tuber, and BK stover. analysis using Randomized Block Design. The results of the study it can be concluded that: The best clones/varieties on tuber yield were BIS OP-61-?-29 varieties which showed the highest protein of 3.86% (without biochar), while the starch content was 75.07% in varieties 73 OP-8 (biochar 5 tons/ha). The best biochar dose is at a dose of 5 tons/ha on the number of tubers/plots as much as 39.36 tubers/ in Alfisol soil. Penurunan tingkat kesuburan lahan pertanian intensif dan memburuknya kualitas lingkungan telah mengakibatkan pasokan bahan pangan yang lebih sedikit. Fokus pengembangan pertanian sebagian diarahkan untuk memastikan ketersediaan pangan berkelanjutan, baik kuantitas maupun kualitas. Penggunaan lahan yang kualitas atau peruntukannya tidak sesuai dengan kesesuaian lahan akan menyebabkan kegagalan atau kerusakan pada sumber daya lahan. Peningkatan produksi ubi jalar terus dibudidayakan, salah satunya adalah melalui evaluasi tanaman ubi jalar di tanah Alfisol. Alfisol adalah jenis tanah yang cukup potensial untuk pertanian.

Abstract

The occurrence of pollution in mangrove land is due to changes in physical, chemical and biological properties of water because of the increasing human activities that produce problems due to residential and industrial wastes and other related activities, or due to seawater tide. The existence and presence of residential and industrial wastes in soil sediments can disturb the environment that in turn will threaten mangroves growth. This study was aimed to reveal the presence of heavy metals in sediment shown by environmental changes of water polluted by residential and industrial wastes. The study was conducted in field plots located at five watershed areas of Andil, Porangan, Kacar, Gombal and Krondo in Tambak Lekok Village of Pasuruan District, East Java. Field exploration and observation was started from waterfront and riverside vegetations. The exploration was made 300 m toward inland, perpendicular to the edge of the waters. The sediment samples of mangrove stands were collected at three points for each plot. The thickness of the collected sediment samples was ± 10 cm from the surface. Sediment samples were analyzed for heavy metals (Pb, Cr, Zn and Cu) and texture. The results showed that the Pb severely polluted the Gombal watershed with a concentration of 7.24mg/kg. The lowest Pb concentration of 7.24 mg/kg was observed for Andil watershed. Except for Andil watershed, Cu heavily polluted all the watersheds studied
