Abstract

Soil tillage has both positive and negative impacts on soil quality and crop productivity. Efforts to reduce the negative impacts of intensive soil tillage are urgently needed. This study aims to analyze the impact of intensive soil tillage on soil fertility parameters (pH, available P, organic-C, soil compaction, aggregate stability, and soil biodiversity). This research was conducted in two land uses: agriculture and forest land. The research design was descriptive-explorative through surveys and direct field observations. The sample points were determined using stratified random sampling with 3 replications (24 samples). Parameters analyzed in this study were soil compaction, aggregate stability, soil pH, soil available-P, and soil biodiversity (total microbial, soil meso-and-macrofauna). The results showed that intensive tillage affected the soil microbial population, aggregate stability, pH, and available-P (p<0.05). The negative impact of intensive soil tillage reduced total soil microbes by 59.37%. The soil macro and mesofauna found at the study site were earthworms and mycorrhizae, which had a higher density on non-tillage land, with trees as the main vegetation. This encourages efforts to introduce conservation soil tillage to maintain soil biodiversity before more severe damage occurs. Keywords: Intensive agriculture, Soil degradation, Soil fertility, Soil quality, Soil structure.

Abstract

Nitrogen (N) fertilization in coffee agroforestry system requires proper management to increase N use efficiency (NUE) and minimize N losses. This study investigated the impact of different fertilization management on N losses, N uptake, and N storage in a coffee-based agroforestry system. The study was conducted using three types of fertilizer (organic, inorganic, and mixture of organic-inorganic) with three doses (low, medium, and high), and a control treatment (no fertilization), with 3 replications. Soil leachate was collected using lysimeter at 50 cm depth (below coffee root zone) and gas emissions were collected monthly using chamber for 4 months. Soil sample at 0-20 cm depth and leaf sample were also collected. The variables included NH₄⁺ and NO₃ˉ concentration in the leachate and soil, soil N total, N uptake, N emission, N use efficiency (NUE) and partial N balance. Results showed no significant differences in N leaching or plant N uptake across treatments. However, the mixed fertilizer with high dose treatment significantly increased soil N availability while reducing N₂O emissions and improving the overall N balance. This suggests that a high dose mixed fertilizer application can enhance N utilization in coffee-based agroforestry systems, potentially improving productivity while minimizing environmental impacts. Keywords: Agroforestry, Fertilization, Nitrogen balance, Nitrogen loss, Nitrogen storage.

Abstract

Application proper type and dose of fertilizer will maintain soil fertility and help coffee growing better in the agroforestry system. Mis-management in fertilization compromises soil quality, and therefore it is underscoring the imperative to ascertain proper type and dosage of fertilizer for maintaining soil properties and nutrient storage. The study aims to assess and evaluate the role of fertilizer management in influencing soil properties, nutrient stocks, and leaf nutrient content. The field experiment was conducted in smallholder coffee agroforestry systems East Java – Indonesia. A randomized block design including a control plot in the protected area and nine combinations of fertilizer types (i.e., organic, inorganic, and mixed) and doses (i.e., low, medium, and high), with three replications, was applied to coffee trees in an agroforestry system. This study proves that differences in fertilizer management did not significantly changes soil physical properties (i.e., soil bulk density and total porosity), indicated that changing in soil physical properties occurred in the long time. In addition, the reduced fertilizer dose (the low dose fertilizer application) had comparable soil available P, and higher soil exchangeable K and soil P stock as compared to those in the protected areas. The study revealed that applying low-dose mixed fertilizer management effectively improved soil fertility.

Abstract

Lead (Pb) is a toxic heavy metal for humans. Agrochemical applications contribute to Pb contamination and accumulation in plants which is harmful to humans. This study aims to investigate the habits of horticultural farmers in applying inorganic fertilizers and pesticides intensively on Pb concentration in the soil and cultivated plants, and its effect on plant growth. The measured parameters consisted of soil and plant Pb content, soil pH, organic C, total N, available P, and exchangeable K. This study used a randomized block design consisting of 4 treatments (Control (KT); (PR); (TN); and (TP)). The results showed that horticultural farmers' dosage of inorganic fertilizers exceeded Indonesia Ministry of Agriculture recommendation. The application of inorganic fertilizers and pesticides by farmers (business as usual) increased Pb content in plants up to 31.46 mg/kg. Besides the application of inorganic fertilizers increases fertilizer residues in the soil by up to 65%, which increases environmental pollution even though the application of inorganic fertilizers increases plant growth and production (shoot length,  the number of leaves, and plant dry weight). Thus, wisely applying agrochemicals is required in order to support plant growth and production without further environmental problems.
