Abstract

Wetlands in Peatland Development Area has potential for the development of paddy, vegetables and palawija. Development of the commodities are limited or restricted by many limiting production factors such as nutrients, water and plant varieties. The purpose of this study is to know the influence of amelioration and fertilization packages on the growth and yield of peanuts in the swampland peat land development area. The treatments consisted of four amelioration and fertilization package i.e.: (1) Farmer’s package I: 250 kg.ha dolomite, (2) -1 -1 -1 -1 Farmer’s package II: 2.5 t.ha straw compost+18 kg.ha P2O5+300 kg.ha fly ash, (3) Recommendation package: 1.0 t.ha dolomite+22.5 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 kg.ha N + 36 kg.ha P2O5, and (4) Research package: 2.0 t.ha dolomite+22.5 kg.ha N+22.5 kg.ha P2O5 +30 kg.ha K2O. The result showed that the growth of plants (plant height and number of branches) does not differ between treatments, and the obtained peanut pod yield improvement is 50.45% in the research package treatment compared to Farmer’s package I.

Abstract

Carbon stock on peatlands are large and will be easily emitted if the land is opened or drained, therefore the measurements of  carbon stocks and ash content are important to know the amount of emissions and agricultural sustainability in peatlands. This study aimed to determine carbon stock and ash content on peatlands in the Indonesia Climate Change Trust Fund (ICCTF) located in South Kalimantan on the geographic position S. 03°25’52" and E. 114°47’6.5". The experiment consisted of six treatments of ameliorant materials namely; mineral soil, peat fertilizer A, peat fertilizer T, manure, ash, and control.  The results showed that the variation of peat soil properties was very high at this location. Peat thickness ranged from 36-338 cm, and this led to high variations in carbon stocks ranged between 161.8 – 1142.2 Mg ha-1. Besides ash contents of the soil were also highly varied ranged from 3.4 – 28.5%. This natural variation greatly affected the ICCTF study design. Mineral soil treatment had a mean carbon stock (961.3 ± 61.5 Mg ha-1) which was higher and different from other treatments. High ash content was obtained in the ash treatment (18.6 ± 2.5%) and manure (15.7 ± 3.6%).  It is recommended that the analysis of plant responses and greenhouse gas emissions using a single regression analysis and multiple regression with ash content as one of the independent variables are needed.Keywords: Ash content, carbon stock, peatland,  peat thickness[How to Cite: Nurzakiah S, F Agus, and H Syahbuddin. 2013.

Abstract

Agricultural development on peatland in Indonesia has been constrained by the presence of environment issues in relation to the release of greenhouse gases (GHGs) particularly carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. This study was aimed to predict the potential carbon emission based on carbon stocks in acrotelmic and catotelmic peats with the reference of groundwater level of peatland.  The results showed that groundwater levels have played an important  role  in  carbon  release, which  has  close  relationship  with  water  regime  of  the upper  layer  of  peats  that influenced by oxidative and reductive conditions of the land.  From the layer that having groundwater level fluctuations during the period from rainy to dry season (acrotelmic peat), the emissions were mostly dominated by CO2 release, while from permanent reductive-layer (catotelmic peat) was not detected.  The decrease of groundwater level from -49.6 to -109 cm has clearly influenced carbon emission.  From each decreasing 1.0 cm groundwater level, CO2 emission measured during the period of February - October 2013 was calculated to yield about 0.37 Mg ha-1 yr-1.Keywords: Acrotelmic and catotelmic peat, carbon emission, groundwater level [How to Cite: Siti N, S Sabiham, B Nugroho and Di Nursyamsi. 2014.

Abstract

The conservation measures of peat or peat maintain under natural conditions many proposed to address the increase in carbon emissions from land use change and efforts to minimize of fire, but it can not entirely implemented due to peat land has the potential for development of the agricultural commodities is supported by extensive area. Peatlands can be productive agricultural land with appropriate methods. Water management is required to regulate groundwater levels which is suitable for plants, nature conservation and restore hydrological conditions, such as reducing the vulnerability to fire. The percentage of water content vertically and functional groups of organic materials that have both hydrophilic and hydro phobic properties can be an indicator of vulner ability to fire. This research was conducted by survey method and then field sampling on land use rubber. Water management carried out with the installation of water-gate in the drainage channels (Tabat System). There are two experimental units in peatland, namely: 1) the drainage channel is equipped with the water-gate/Tabat (KST), Tabat size adjusted to the channel dimensions, and 2) there are no water-gate on the drainage channel (KNT). The parameters are observed of CO2 fluxes, ground water levels, water content and functional groups of organic matter. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of “tabat system” in mitigating CO2 emission sand vulner ability tofire. The results showed that the water management “tabat system” can reduce CO2 emissions by 47.6%, reducing hydrophobic properties of peat (0-50 cm soil depth) of 6.6% and is able to prevent loss of water-holding ability of fibric peat by 26.6%. This indicates that water management measures is required as one effort to maintain of peat to remain moist condition, so that changes in peat properties of hydrophilic become hydrophobic can be prevented, and reduce peat vulnerability to fire.Keywords: Carbon dioxide emissions, Peatland, Vulner ability to fire, Water management [How to Cite: Siti Nurzakiah, Nurita and Dedi Nursyamsi. 2016.

Abstract

Swampland development such as acid sulphate soil for agricultural cultivation has various problem, including high soil acidity, fluctuated and unpredictable water flooding and the presence of toxic elements such as Fe which resulting in low crop yields. The research was conducted at the experimental station Belandean, Barito Kuala regency in dry season 2007.  The objective of research was to study the effect of rice straw on the dynamic of soil pH, the concentration of iron and sulphate and yield on tidal land acid sulphate soil at two different water inlet channel. This research was designed in RCBD (Randomized Completely Block Design) with five treatments (0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10 Mg ha-1) and four replications. Dolomite as much as 1 Mg ha-1 was also applied.  This research was divided into two sub-units experiment i.e. two conditions of different water inlet channel. The first water channels were placed with limestone and the second inlet was planted with Eleocharis dulcis.  The results showed that (i) rice straw application did not affect the dynamic of soil pH, concentration of iron and sulphate, and (ii) the highest yield was obtained with 7.5 Mg ha-1 of rice straw.
