Abstract

The water supply in dry land depends on the rainfall, which causes agricultural constraints and limited water supply. The pottery irrigation method is considered capable of overcoming water shortages during the dry season. Pottery irrigation uses porous clay, so the water slowly comes out of the pottery and wet the surrounding soil. The research aimed to study the influence of pottery subsurface irrigation with and without mulching on watermelon growth and soil properties of clayey soil Alfisol and sandy soil entisol. The research was conducted on July 2019 in the experimental field Faculty of Agriculture, Karanganyar Regency. The experimental research design used a nested design with a 3-factor treatment that were soil type (T), fertilization method (P), and use of mulch (M). The types of soil were Alfisol (T1) and Entisol (T2). The fertilization methods were fertigation 100% (P1), fertigation 50% (P2), and banding fertilization 100% (P3). Mulch application included control, without mulch (M0) and mulch (M1). The combination of P1M1 treatment on alfisol and entisol soil showed the highest soil moisture with values of 23.1% and 22.5%, respectively. The highest fruit weight of melon in alfisol and entisol soils were indicated by the same treatment (P1M1) with values of 580.33 g and 616.5 g, respectively.

Abstract

The peatlands have the potential to support food security efforts. However, there is have constraints on soil fertility, especially the P nutrients availability. The biotechnology approach, the application of ameliorant (biochar-compost carrier medium (biocom)) enriched with phosphate solubilizing fungi (PSF) and coal fly ash (CFA), was expected to increase the P-availability in peat soils. The research aimed to study the application of biocom enriched with PSF and CFA to increase soil P-availability and plant P-uptake. The study was conducted using peat soil media with the formulation of CFA and biocom enriched with PSF and CFA as treatments. The treatment effect was observed through soil P available and plant P uptake of maize. The results showed PSF application was inconsistent in improving P available in peat soils in Kalimantan. In Central Kalimantan, Biocom + PSF was able to increase P available in peat soils by up to 406.18% (A. oryzae-Tb7) and 353.44% (N. fischeri-Tm8). However, in South Kalimantan P available in peat soil was only 8.04% (A. oryzae-Tb7) and 12.86% (N. fischeri-Tm8). The CFA+ (biocom+PSF) formulation increased P available in Central Kalimantan peat soils, but it was different from South Kalimantan peat soils. The application of biocom+PSF and CFA has not been able to increase the P uptake of maize plant in peatlands of South Kalimantan.

Abstract

Mulching technology is accessible to farmers and can also reduce soil erosion and nutrient loss through erosion. This research aimed to observe the effectiveness of the combination treatment of strengthened terrace strips and maize stalk mulch on runoff, erosion, sediment enrichment ratio (SER), and nutrient loss through erosion. The experiment was conducted on upland farming on Andisol at the end of the rainy season. The erosion plot experiment was arranged in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with the treatment of 4 doses of maize stalks mulch (0, 4, 8, and 12 Mg ha-1) and three types of strengthened terrace strips (Jali, Vetiver, and Kalanjana grass) put in groups/blocks, giving 12 experiments. The combination treatment of maize stalk mulch and strengthened terrace strips has not significantly reduced runoff and soil loss. The treatment mulch dose of 12 Mg  ha-1 reduced runoff and soil loss by 9.9% and 21.9% compared to without mulch. The application of maize stalks mulch tends to reduce the sediment concentration and the number of nutrients (N and Organic C) lost through erosion but increases the nutrient concentration in sediments (SER value).

Abstract

Pepper plant development requires data and information on land potential and land suitability class assessment based on the physical and chemical properties criteria so that the land can be productive. The study aimed to determine the land suitability class for pepper plants in Bireuen Regency. The research was conducted in Bireuen Regency. The unit land map (Satuan Peta Lahan, SPL) resulting from the overlay of the slope map, land use map, and soil type map was used in this study. The method used is a survey method with a land unit approach consisting of four stages: (1) preparation stage, (2) preliminary survey, (3) main survey, and (4) presentation of results. The results showed that the land had good to poor drainage, soil depth >75 cm, flat to steep slopes, mild to very heavy erosion hazard, dusty clay texture, low to high cation exchange capacity (CEC), slightly acidic to slightly alkaline pH, low organic C, Base Saturation (BS) is low to high, N total is low to very low, P2O5 is very low, and K2O is very low. Land suitability class for pepper plants in Bireuen Regency includes marginal suitability (S3) with limiting factors in the form of drainage, texture, CEC, BS, N-total, P2O5, K2O, slope, and erosion hazard. Improvements include making rorak, planting contours, drainage systems, applying manure or compost, and planting cover crops.

Abstract

Ultisol soil has a low organic matter content, CEC, and pH, causing an insufficient buffering capacity for N nutrients, especially NH4+. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of tillage and fertilization on the quantity and intensity (Q/I) of Ammonium (CRNH40, PBCNH4+, NH40, KG) in the soil, plant N and C uptake, and mung bean yields at the sixth growing season in ultisols. This study was arranged in a 2 × 2 factorial in a Randomized Block Design (RBD). The first factor was the tillage system (T), namely minimum tillage (T0) and intensive tillage (T1). The second factor was the fertilization (P), namely without fertilizer application (P0), and with fertilizer application (NPK 200 kg ha-1 + 1 Mg ha-1 chicken manure) (P1). Each treatment was replicated four times. The results showed that the application of NPK fertilizer significantly affected the mung bean yield, mung bean plant Nitrogen and Carbon uptake at harvest time. While, the intensive tillage had a very significant effect on increasing the N uptake compared to the minimum tillage. Minimum tillage and fertilization increased Q/I parameters (PBCNH4+, KG, CRNH40, and NH40). The parameter of Q/I (CRNH40) was significantly correlated with mung bean plant N and C uptake. PBCNH4+ and KG were significantly correlated with mung bean yields.
