Abstract

Soil infiltration capacity is a critical factor in water management and soil conservation, particularly in agricultural systems and natural ecosystems. Effective infiltration allows water to penetrate the soil, reducing surface runoff, preventing erosion, and enhancing groundwater reserves. A key element influencing infiltration capacity is the presence and activity of soil microorganisms, which play a vital role in soil structure formation and aggregate stability. This study aims to analyze the role of soil microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and actinobacteria, in enhancing infiltration capacity through organic matter decomposition, aggregate formation, and the production of exopolysaccharides that bind soil particles. The findings demonstrate that soils with active microbial populations exhibit significantly higher infiltration capacity compared to soils with limited microbial activity. This is attributed to microbial processes that improve soil structure, increase porosity, and stabilize aggregates, facilitating water absorption. The study underscores the importance of sustainable agricultural practices that support microbial diversity to improve soil quality and ecosystem resilience. By highlighting the essential contributions of soil microorganisms to infiltration, this research provides insights into soil health management strategies that enhance water retention and soil conservation.

Abstract

This research investigates the influence of organic and inorganic fertilizers on plant development and productivity. Organic fertilizers enhance soil fertility and stimulate biological activity through the use of natural inputs such as compost and manure. Meanwhile, inorganic fertilizers supply nutrients more rapidly and in precise amounts but may have long-term impacts on soil quality. A randomized complete block design was used to test different fertilization treatments. The findings reveal that a balanced application of both fertilizer types yields superior plant performance and harvest results. This supports the need for sustainable nutrient management practices to improve crop outcomes without compromising soil integrity.

Abstract

The soil’s ability to store water is one of the key factors determining agricultural productivity, particularly in lowland areas that frequently experience water saturation. This study aimed to examine the effects of soil texture and structure on the soil’s water-holding capacity. Soil samples were collected from several points in lowland areas and subsequently analyzed in the laboratory using the pipette method to determine soil texture, morphological observations to assess soil structure, and the gravimetric method to measure water-holding capacity. The results showed that fine-textured soils, such as clay, have a higher water-holding capacity compared to coarse-textured soils, such as sand. Soil structures that are granular and stable enhance soil porosity and enable water to be retained for a longer period. The combination of clay texture and granular structure resulted in the most optimal soil water-holding capacity. Therefore, soil physical conditions, particularly texture and structure, play a crucial role in maintaining soil water balance. Soil management practices involving the addition of organic matter and appropriate tillage are essential measures to improve soil water-holding capacity and support sustainable agriculture in lowland areas.
