Abstract

Earthworms feed exclusively on dead organic matter (OM). The earthworm population is regulated by organic matter availability and soil characteristics. The aim of the research was to investigate the effect of seasonal change to the abundance and biomass of earthworms in Wanagama I. Collection of the soil samples was conducted from a quadrangle 25 x 25x 25 cm with the depth of 0-10, 10-20 and 20-30 cm with 5 replications under stands of Glyricidae, Leucaena, Teak, Acacia, Eucalyptus and Mahogany. Soil samples were taken at rainy season (February), early dry season (July) and dry season (October) 2004. The earthworms were manually extracted from soil samples and the abundance was stated as number and biomass of dry weight. The result showed the abundance and biomass of earthworms were high only in February at the soil depth of 0-10 cm. The highest number of earthworm and biomass was found in Mahogany stand (224,000 individual.ha-1/105.6 kg.ha-1). Multiple linier regression analysis showed that abundance of earthworms was affected by soil moisture content, while the biomass of earthworms was affected by soil pH and bulk density (aeration).

Abstract

Home garden productivity can be enhanced by managing plant diversity, optimizing stand arrangements, and selecting species suited to local land conditions. Avocado trees, in particular, have strong potential to thrive in the karst regions of Karangasem Village, Paliyan, Gunungkidul. Some trees planted spottily by local people in their home garden have been able to bear fruit. The avocado trees have also been grown intensively in the Semanu District, adjacent to Paliyan District. These factors indicate that avocado trees are well-adapted to the local area. To promote optimal growth, stand management should incorporate appropriate silvicultural practices. The objective of this community service program was to increase the tree species diversification of home gardens in Karangasem Village by planting avocado trees by assisting the Forest Farmer Group of Lestari Mulyo, as a potential driving group to the community. In the future, local communities can hopefully establish avocados as a new commodity to help boost household incomes.
