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

The nutrients of plants and the physical condition of the soil must both be considered to increase corn productivity. The continuous use of inorganic fertilizer without manures will cause a decrease in the physical properties of the soil. Therefore, this study aims to obtain doses of organic fertilizer from cow manure and inorganic fertilizers namely urea, KCl and SP-36 that will give the best effect on the physical properties of Alfisols, growth and yield of hybrid corn. The experiment was carried out using the randomized complete block design (RCBD) with two factors namely organic and inorganic fertilizers. Each factor was given at four dosages: 1, ¾, ½ and ¼ of the standard dose each with three replications. Observation parameters include bulk and particle density, soil porosity, aggregate stability, root volume and fresh weight, plant height, as well as the weight of corn with and without husks. The results showed that organic and inorganic fertilizers significantly affected bulk density, soil porosity, aggregate stability, root fresh weight, root volume, as well as the weight of corn with and without husks. Additionally, treatment with 7.5 to 10 tons of organic fertilizer as well as ¼, ¾ and 1 dose of inorganic fertilizers produced the best effect on soil physical properties of Alfisols, growth and yield of hybrid corn, while the lowest results were obtained in the control treatment. This indicates that organic treatment can reduce the use of inorganic fertilizers between ¼ to ¾ of the standard dose.

Abstract

Livestock Farmer Group Lembu Mulyo was a cattle breeder engaged in livestock farming. Cow dung was a problem for breeders because of the large amount of cow dung that had not yet been utilized, causing air, water, and soil pollution. The Mentoring activity aims to overcome the problems faced by partners by utilizing cow dung waste from Livestock Farmer Group Lembu Mulyo could be used as organic fertilizer by the Farmer’s Group Sri Rejeki to increase rice yield by applying the principles of sustainable agriculture. The Livestock Farmer Group Lembu Mulyo problem could be solved by formulating organic fertilizer using cow dung. Furthermore, it could address the Farmer’s Group Sri Rejeki problem, which is an increasing need for fertilizer to increase rice yield by applying sustainable agriculture principles. The mentoring activity was in collaboration with two partners, namely the Farmer’s Group Sri Rejeki and the Livestock Farmer Group Lembu Mulyo, located in Gesikan Village, Gantiwarno District, Klaten Regency. The method used was socialization and practice. The result of the mentoring activity for formulating organic fertilizer was that the Livestock Farmer Group Lembu Mulyo could formulate organic fertilizer from cow dung, and the Farmer’s Group Sri Rejeki was able to apply an organic fertilizer to increase rice yield. The two partners’ capabilities could overcome problems in the Livestock Farmer Group Lembu Mulyo and the Farmer’s Group Sri Rejeki. In addition to solving the problems of the two partners by formulating organic fertilizers and their application in rice fields also applied sustainable agriculture principles.

Abstract

This study aims to assess the impact of Organic FertilizerPlus on soil fertility status, nutrient uptake, and soybean yield in Alfisol. The research employs a randomized complete group design (RCGD) with a single factor, consisting of P0 (Control), P1 (Cow dung, 5 tons ha-1 + Zeolite dose of 2.5 tons ha-1), P2 (Cow dung, 5 tons ha-1 + Zeolite dose of 5 tons ha-1), P3 (Cow dung, 5 tons ha-1 + Dolomite dose of 2.5 tons ha-1), P4 (Cow dung, 5 tons ha-1 + Dolomite dose of 5 tons ha-1), and P5 (Cow dung, 5 tons ha-1 + Zeolite dose of 5 tons ha-1 + Dolomite dose of 5 tons ha-1), repeated four times. The results indicate that the application of Organic FertilizerPlus enhances soil fertility status (pH, organic C, CEC, and available P), with the highest values observed in treatment P5, including pH (6.70), soil organic C (6.28 g.kg-1), cation exchange capacity (CEC) (6.85 cmol.g-1), and available P (2.63 mg.g-1). This leads to increased phosphorus uptake, consequently improving soybean yields. The highest soybean yield is achieved by applying Organic FertilizerPlus (P5) at 2.17 t.ha-1.
