Abstract

Utilization of ex-mining land for agricultural extensification is an opportunity to solve the problem of food and environment. This paper discusses prospective utilization of ex-mining land for agricultural extensification. Mining area equipped with a business license for mining in Indonesia is around 2.2 million ha under Coal Concession Agreement, and 2.9 million ha under the Contract of Effort. A part of land is already finished being mined, and be managed properly in order to benefit the community and not damage the environment. The initial steps that need to be done is mapping of mined lands, included a status of ownership (land tenure), so that subsequent use of both for agriculture and other businesses can be sustainable. Land reclamation is necessary to increase capacity and efficiency for biomass production. Determination of land use types, should be based on land tenure, bio-physical conditions of land, and the needs of the community or local government. In the future, mining land management requirements is not enough simply by opening a feasibility study for mining operations, but need to be accompanied also with itsclosure plan (planning of closures), which includes environmental protection and mitigation of socio-economic problems. This needs to be one of the terms of the granting of mining permits.

Abstract

The research was carried out in Oil Palm Plantation in Ngabang, Landak Distric, West Kalimantan in May 2008. Composite soil samples were taken from the soils, in which the oil palms indicated the nutrient disorders. The aims of the research were to study the soil fertility and nutrient management of Spodosols for oil palm crops. The results indicated that spodic horizons in the oil palm plantation varied between 30 and 70 cm. Besides spodic horizons, the albic horizon, the horizon that can't be penetrated by the crops root, was also found. The texture is sandy with the sand content about 69-98 %. The soil has acidic properties, C organic varied from low to high, low phosphate, potassium, magnesium and Cation Exchange Capacity. In contrast, in the spodic horizon, the content of organic carbon, total nitrogen and CEC were higher, as well exchangeable Aluminum. There was close relationship between soil organic carbon and nitrogen and CEC in the soil. It is advice not to use spodosols for food crop and estate crops. The application of slow release fertilizers combined with organic fertilizers is highly input when oil palm planted on the Spodosol.Keywords: Spodosols, soil characteristic, oil palm

Abstract

Land quality has a good relationship with the productivity of maize which is influenced by parent materials and soil development, especially the nutrient retention and aluminum toxicity. Nutrient availability is strongly influenced by land management. On the intensively land use and continuously fertilizer applied is showing a high content of available P at top soil and give a high yielding of maize. Result of land evaluation in the study area by using the existing criteria of land suitability of maize indicated the same class of land suitability of S3 and therefore not suited to the field condition. The main limitation was a nutrient retention (i.e. pH, base saturation). Nutrition availability of available P and toxicity of aluminum are excluded in the criteria. Land suitability criteria of maize were built by relevant land qualities and productivity of maize gave more realistic and quantitative results of land suitability of the area. The most influenced of land quality to the maize productivity are nutrient availability, nutrient retention and aluminum toxicity by mean of land characteristics of available P, pH and exchangeable Al. A few data required for land evaluation and therefore it will be easily to be processed, faster, efficient and accurately. Application of the P fertilizer and liming are strongly recommended for the area, especially on the acid soils of sedimentary rock to increase the productivity of maize.

Abstract

Acid soils derived from volcanic rocks on wet climate of upland agriculture in the centre of maize production areas in Sukabumi, West Java are characterized by acid to strongly acid soil reaction (pH<5.5), low to very low base saturation, low to medium cation exchange capacity of clay, and medium to high aluminum saturation which could be a toxic and influencingphosphate availability. Composition of sand fraction indicates that parent material of soils was an intermediated volcanic rock, dominated by intermediated plagioclass i.e. andesine and labradorite, and mafic minerals of ferromagnesian i.e. hyperstene, hornblende, while clay fraction is dominated by type of 1:1 (halloysite and kaolinite). Generally, soils are deep, brown to reddish brown, clayey textured, crumb to fine sub angular blocky structured, friable, well drained, and moderatelly wellpermeability. Soils have an isohyperthermic temperature regime and udic soil moisture regime. Soils are classified as Brown Latosol and Reddish Brown Latosol or equal to Humic Dystrudepts and Typic Hapludults. Typic Hapludults much more developed and weathered than Humic Dystrudepts, therefore it has low fertility. Physically, soils are good medium for development of maize roots. But chemically are not suited for maize growth especially on Typic Hapludults. Therefore, they need specific soil management to improve soil productivity by increasing input of fertilizers, liming and organic matter based on soil characteristics and crop needs.
