Abstract

Soil characteristics in sago land show hydro-morphic character as well as gleization symptoms because it is periodically influenced by wet and dry conditions. Differences in soil characteristics formed are observed under sago stands in different inundation conditions and their effect on the units of soil formed. This study aims to identify the characteristics of the soil under the sago stand in various conditions of inundation. The survey and sampling were conducted at four sample locations and observed three different environmental conditions: not inundated, permanently inundated, and temporarily inundated. The results showed that there were significant differences between the four research sample locations, both soil and hydrological parameters, such as the number of layers, soil texture, soil color, pH, soil consistency, organic matter, and inundation conditions. This characteristic affected the soil under the sago standing environment. The condition of the depth of groundwater was rather deep, and the inundation was temporarily stagnant. Thus according to the observations, there was not too significant a difference from the soils; only differences in the production of sago plants were found.
