Abstract

The low quality of Entisol is caused by low availability of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium as well as low soil pH, so the addition of vermicompost is necessary. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of vermicompost application on soil quality and to obtain the highest vermicompost dosage on the availability of nutrients such as N, P, K, and the yield of corn. The field experiment used a Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD) with 7 dosages of vermicompost and three replications. The treatments were V0 = 0; V1 = 5; V2 = 10; V3 = 15; V4 = 20; V5 = 25; V6 = 30 Mg ha-1. Variables observed consisted of 1) initial soil and vermicompost characterization analysis, 2) soil analysis and N, P, and K content in leaves, and yield of corn. The results showed that Entisol was classified as low quality; however, vermicompost quality complied with the requirements of quality organic fertilizer. The experiment also indicated that the highest pH of Entisol (5.31) and K content in corn leaves (2.12%) were obtained at a dose of vermicompost 25 Mg ha-1. Meanwhile, the highest weight of husked corn cobs (415.55 g plant-1) and weight of unhusked corn cob (351.11 g plant-1) were obtained at a vermicompost dose of 15 Mg ha-1.

Abstract

The study aimed to determine the dynamics of soil moisture in various standing water levels and dosages of organic fertilizer. The experiment was arranged in a Completely Randomized Block Design (CRBD) with a 3 × 3 factorial treatment in 3 replicates. The first factor was 3 different water levels, namely 10 cm (T1), 20 cm (T2), and 30 cm (T3). The second factor was 3 levels of dosages of organic fertilizer, namely 0 g pot-1(P1), 35 g pot-1 (P2), and 70 g pot-1 (P3). The highest of soil moisture was obtained in the 10 cm water levels and 70 g organic fertilizer (T1P3) and the lowest in the 30 cm water levels and without organic fertilizer (T3P1). The highest infiltration rate was obtained in the 30 cm water levels and 70 g pot-1 organic fertilizer (T3P3), the 30 cm water levels and 35 g pot-1 organic fertilizer (T3P2), the 20 cm water levels and 70 g pot-1 organic fertilizer (T2P3), and the lowest in the combination of the 10 cm water levels and without organic fertilizer (T1P1). The highest capillary rate was obtained in the combination of the 30 cm water levels and 70 g organic fertilizer (T3P3) and the lowest in the combination of the 30 cm water levels and without organic fertilizer (T3P1).

Abstract

Assessment adaptation of several new superior rice varieties  on new rice fields affected by seawater intrusion was carried out in Tungkal Ilir Subdistrict, West Tanjung Jabung District, from April to October 2018. The study applied randomized block designs (RBD) with four replications. The treatments consisted of four new rice high yielding varities suitable for tidal/swamps areas namely Inpara 3, Inpara 8, Inpara 9, and Inpari 34 Salin Agritan, and one local rice variety (Londo) as control. Three stems seedlings per clump were planted at the age of 21-25 days, using a 4:1 Legowo planting system. Fertilizer application consisted of basic fertilizer (1.0 Mg ha-1 of lime, 2.5 Mg ha-1 of manure, and 75 kg ha-1 of urea) and supplementary fertilizer (SP-36 150 kg ha-1 and KCl 125 kg ha-1),. Urea supplementation is given based on observations with a leaf color chart (LCC). The results of the study showed that the four new rice HYVs were more adapted as compared to the local rice variety. The performance of the tested new rice HYVs showed quite a good growth appearance and productivity. The highest production was obtained in Inpari 34 Salin Agritan variety 2.85 Mg ha-1, while Inpara 3, Inpara 8, and Inpara 9 ranged between 2.0 and 2.1 Mg ha-1, while the local variety’s productivity was 1.9 Mg ha-1.

Abstract

The land allocated for newly opened lowland rice can be from ultisols, oxisols, inceptisols, and potential acid sulfate soils. The study was aimed to evaluate nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P), and potassium (K) inputs – outputs of newly developed lowland rice under different treatments and to validate the N, P, and K recommended applications rate according to N, P, and K balances. The study was conducted in Kleseleon village, Malaka District. Five treatments were tested namely T0: farmers practices, T1: NPK at recommendation rate + Rice straw compost, T2: NPK at recommendation rate + Smart + Rice straw compost, T3: ¾ NPK at recommendation rate + Smart + Rice straw compost, and T4: NPK at recommendation rate + Smart + Rice straw compost. The treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The nutrient balances were constructed according to the difference between nutrient inputs and losses. The results indicated that there were surplus N, P, and K across the treatments and more than adequate to replace N, P, and K removed by harvest products. The suggested N, P, and K application rates were 100 kg urea, 100 kg SP-36, and 100 kg KCl with the addition of compost 3 Mg ha-1 season-1.

Abstract

The research was conducted to study  the growth and the yield of the groundnut plant and to  quantify the soil loss after groundnut harvesting as influenced by induced soil compaction. A ten kilogram of soil was packed in the pots with an initial bulk density of 1.05 Mg m-3, then it were compressed to1.57, 1.72, 1.88, 2.04, and 2.42 Mg m-3. The research was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications. Groundnut seeds were sown in pots and the plant growth data were collected in a 2-week interval while force and energy of harvesting and soil loss due to groundnut harvesting were determined at 12 weeks after sowing. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Fishers LSD at P= 0.05. Soil compacted to1.88 Mgm-3 produced more taller plant, more higher number of leaves and branches than control. Soil compaction significantly reduced the number of pods, roots, and fresh root weight compared to control. Bulk density (2.04 Mgm-3) required a significantly higher force (42.47 N) and energy (45.73 J) in harvesting than control and other compaction levels. Soil loss due to the  groundnut harvesting increased (13- 42%) in all compaction levels although statistically not different. Soil compaction beyond 1.88 Mg m-3 could affect the growth and the yield of groundnut and could increase the soil loss at harvesting.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity of FMA from the rhizosphere of cassava, corn, taro, ginger, kale, pineapple which was cultivated in the Sungai Asam peatland by using a corn plant host. This research was conducted at the Soil Biology and Biotechnology Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture and plastic houses in the Universitas Tanjungpura Faculty of Agriculture’s experimental garden. The study was conducted from August 2nd to October 21st, 2018. The procedure was done by taking soil and root samples from cassava, corn, taro, and peanut rhizosphere cultivated on peatland. A sampling of soil and roots in each rhizosphere was carried out at 4 observation points as replication with a depth of 0-20 cm and a diameter of 20 cm and then put into a plastic bag and labeled. Then, the soil samples taken were used for microscopic analysis (extraction and identification) and were analyzed to determine their chemical properties. Root samples were colorized to determine the percentage of colonization, and corns were used to cultivate. Furthermore, extraction and identification of spores were carried out using the same technique as extraction and identification of soil samples. The variables observed included the percentage of root colonization, spore density, and spore diversity. The FMA diversity of the 6 types of peatland utilization from the rhizosphere of cassava, corn, taro, ginger, pineapple, and kale in the Sungai Asam village before and after trapping showed an increase in the number of spores, diversity of FMA”while the percentage value of root colonization was varied. Moreover, the number of spores increased from around 36 - 52 spores per 50 g of soil to 61 - 178 spores per 50 g of soil. The diversity of spore types increased from 10 types of Glomus, 1 type of Gigaspora, and 4 types of Acaulospora to 13 types of Glomus, 3 types of Gigaspora, and 5 types of Acaulospora. The highest percentage of infected roots before trapping ranged from 48.89% - 78.48% and after trapping ranged from 78.89% - 94.80%.
