Abstract

Tin mining is a daily activity carried out by some of the people in Lampur Village.  Mining activities have an impact on the land that is left behind in the form of a decline in land quality. Land evaluation is needed to identify the potentials and constraints that exist in an area. The approach applied in this study involved matching primary and secondary data with the criteria for oil palm growth and development. Primary data were obtained by conducting laboratory analyses of cation exchange capacity (CEC), texture, pH, base saturation, and salinity. Secondary data included humidity, temperature, and rainfall. The results of the analysis show that former tin mining land is actually classified as unsuitable or N with texture as a constraint. The soil texture at 10 points is dominated by a sand fraction of 98%, causing the soil at the study site to be coarse in texture and requiring improvement efforts. Temperature (tc) is a permanent constraint that cannot be improved because it is natural. Constraints such as oxygen availability (oa), nutrient retention (nr), and erosion hazard (eh) can be improved to enhance land quality and class. Potentially, former tin mining land can be improved through remediation efforts, thereby increasing land quality while considering certain limiting factors.

Abstract

Sand mining activities from riverbeds or banks can harm the environment, especially water quality, by increasing turbidity, which can endanger ecosystems and human health. This study aims to analyze the water quality of the river around the sand mining area using the Water Quality Index (WQI) method. In this study, water samples were collected at three points: upstream, middle, and downstream, with three repetitions conducted over three consecutive days near the sand mining area of Sembubuk Village, Muaro Jambi Regency.  The test results showed significant values in several parameters, including TSS at the midpoint, which reached 252 mg/l. This figure indicates a high number of suspended particles in the water. The turbidity value at the midpoint was also very high, at 285 NTU, indicating very cloudy water. In addition, the DO level at the midpoint of the mining site was the lowest, at 2.21 mg/l. This low DO indicates that the mining process releases oxidized materials trapped in the bottom sediment, which consume oxygen in the water.  These parameters individually did not meet the river water quality standards. The method used combined various parameters, and the overall value could reflect the combined conditions of each parameter. Thus, the analysis of the WQI pollution level of the Batanghari River around the sand mining area in Sembubuk Village, Muaro Jambi Regency, indicated that the pollution level was at "Poor" status, with an average WQI value of 50.33. The midpoint had the highest WQI classification value among the points, at 50.42, indicating the greatest contribution of mining activities to the decline in water quality. Although the status improved to "Good" on the second day, this improvement was temporary. Overall, the river's condition remained poor, as its status reverted to "Poor" on the third day.

Abstract

Soil-bound heavy metals have been a major and growing environmental issue in recent decades of time, especially across developing nations in the context of rapid urbanization and industrial development. So far, very few studies have examined the spatial distribution of heavy metal contamination in agri-and/or industrial soils. The objective of this review article is to analyze, identify, evaluate and synthesize the existing knowledge on heavy metal contamination in soils across diverse industrial and agri-based land uses worldwide. The PRISMA 2020 method was used in this review article, involving the selection of 22 journal articles that met the criteria for further study and discussion. Heavy metal contamination in soils is due mainly to industrial activities (82% of the studies) and agricultural activities (64%), whereas both sources of contamination were identified in 45% of the studies. On the other hand, the well-known spatial analysis methods for the spatial distribution of soil heavy metals are kriging and IDW. For the industrial sector, individual heavy metals such as Pb, Cr, Ni, and Zn are of greater concern than in the agricultural sector. These metals accumulate in the environment and the food chain, causing short-term and long-term diseases. The choice of spatial analysis techniques to examine the distribution of heavy metals can be modified based on the availability and reliability of the data. The results provide great guidance to researchers and policymakers in designing and implementing effective strategies for prevention, surveillance, and reduction of exposure to heavy metals worldwide.

Abstract

Soil fertility status is a key factor in determining the sustainability and productivity of agricultural systems, especially in areas with acidic soils such as Ultisols and Inceptisols. Land management without accurate nutrient status information can lead to misapplied fertilizers, low input efficiency, and continued soil fertility decline. This study aims to evaluate the status of primary macronutrients nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) in Ibru Village, Mestong Subdistrict, Muaro Jambi Regency as a basis for developing recommendations for more appropriate and sustainable land management. The study was conducted using a soil survey method with a 350 × 350 m grid at a 1:25,000 map scale. Land units were determined by overlaying soil texture, slope gradient, and land-use maps, yielding 12 Homogeneous Land Units (SLH) representing shrubland, oil palm, and rubber plantations. Disturbed soil samples were collected at 0–30 cm depth and analyzed for soil pH, organic C, total N, total P, and total K. The results showed that most of the soils were classified as very acidic to acidic (pH 3.82–5.83), with low to high organic C content (1.08–5.18%), low to moderate total N (0.12–0.29%), generally very low total P due to fixation in acidic soil conditions, and total K ranging from very low to high. These findings emphasize the importance of survey-based soil fertility evaluation and homogeneous land units as a basis for site-specific nutrient management.

Abstract

Research on the identification of soil composition and Laevistrombus canarium (Gonggong) composition has been successfully conducted. Identification testing for all samples was performed using XRD and XRF. Diffraction data analysis was carried out using match!2 software and quantitative analysis was conducted using Rietveld refinement. The study found that, using XRF, the main soil constituent is Si and the main Gonggong constituent is Ca. The phases identified using Match!2 software in the soil samples were Quartz, Osumilete and Biotite. Furthermore, the phase identified in the Gonggong sample was CaCO3 single phase. Finally, the study found that the soil tested lacked macronutrients, such as N, needed for plants to grow well. To obtain these macronutrients, Laevistrombus canarium (Gonggong) has potential as an additional soil amendment to improve soil fertility. The implication is that the land in Batam has the potential for sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

The abundant banana plant waste in Paciran, Lamongan, East Java, poses a risk of environmental pollution, but it also contains plant nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and organic matter that have the potential to improve the chemical characteristics of Paciran Latosol. This study aims to determine how liquid and solid organic fertilizers derived from banana plant waste in Paciran affect the chemical characteristics of Latosol and to examine how the application of organic fertilizers influences spinach growth. The study employed a non-factorial completely randomized design with nine treatments and three replicates. The treatments included: No Organic Fertilizer Application (P0), Liquid Organic Fertilizer Application at 0.22 ml/pot (equivalent to 25 L/ha) (P1), 0.44 ml/pot equivalent to 50 L/ha (P2), 0.66 ml/pot equivalent to 75 L/ha (P3), 0.88 ml/pot equivalent to 100 L/ha (P4), Application of Solid Organic Fertilizer at 4.36 g/pot, equivalent to 5 tons/ha (P5), 8.72 g/pot equivalent to 10 tons/ha (P6), 13.08 g/pot equivalent to 15 tons/ha (P7), and 20 tons/ha (P8). The results of the study indicate that the application of organic fertilizer has a significant effect on increasing the pH of H₂O, organic carbon, cation exchange capacity (CEC), available nitrogen, available phosphorus, and available potassium in Latosol, as well as on spinach growth, including plant height, number of leaves, and fresh weight. The application of solid organic fertilizer at a rate of 13.08 g/pot, equivalent to 15 tons/ha (P7), yielded the best results in improving both the chemical characteristics of Latosol and spinach growth.

Abstract

The decline in mustard productivity in recent years has been associated with increasing pest pressure and the uncontrolled use of insecticides. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a neem leaf–based botanical insecticide and the synthetic insecticide methomyl, applied at three spraying frequencies, on total bacteria, total fungi, soil pH, and pesticide residues. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design with nested treatments and a separate control. The results showed that the control and the treatments did not differ significantly in total bacterial populations, and insecticide type also had no significant effect. Within the nested factor, methomyl applied at a three-day spraying frequency produced the highest total bacterial population and differed significantly from the other treatments. Total fungal populations did not differ significantly across all treatments. Both types of insecticides increased soil pH compared with the control, with a greater increase observed in methomyl; spraying frequencies of six and nine days produced the highest soil pH values. Residue analysis showed that neither neem nor methomyl triggered the accumulation of persistent semi-volatile residues, and the detected chemical traces more closely reflected soil volatilization dynamics rather than the formation of long-term contaminants. Methomyl increased bacterial populations and soil pH as a short-term degradation response, while the botanical insecticide exerted lower ecological pressure due to its rapid degradation and the absence of stable metabolites. These findings confirm the potential of neem as a more sustainable pest management option and provide a scientific basis for determining pesticide application frequencies that are safe for soil conditions.

Abstract

Coastal alluvial paddy soils exhibit chemical characteristics influenced by hydrological dynamics, sedimentation processes, and the interaction between seawater and freshwater. Assessing the dynamics of soil chemical properties in both surface and subsurface layers is essential to understand the vertical distribution of nutrients, identify potential nutrient losses or accumulation, and support more accurate and sustainable soil fertility management. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between soil chemical properties in the topsoil (0–20 cm) and subsoil (20–50 cm) of coastal alluvial paddy soils. The parameters analyzed included pH H₂O, pH KCl, electrical conductivity (EC), cation exchange capacity (CEC), base saturation, total nitrogen, and exchangeable cations (Ca, Mg, K, and Na). Correlation analysis was conducted using statistical tests at a 5% significance level. The results showed significant correlations between soil chemical properties in the topsoil and subsoil, indicating strong vertical nutrient dynamics within the soil profile. In the topsoil, pH plays a key role in controlling phosphorus availability and cation balance, while in the subsoil, pH and salinity more strongly influence CEC, base saturation, and exchangeable cations. In addition, topsoil properties such as organic carbon and total nitrogen are associated with nutrient distribution in the subsoil through leaching and water movement processes. These findings provide important insights for improving sustainable soil fertility management in coastal paddy fields.

Abstract

Spring ecosystems in forest fragments provide important environmental services, but their economic value is rarely included in management decisions. Most management efforts focus only on physical protection, while the way visitors value these ecosystems receives little attention. This study aims to estimate the economic value of spring ecosystem services and analyze the factors influencing visitors’ willingness to pay (WTP). This study also examines the relationship between WTP, water quality indicators, and differences in ecological conditions across several categories of forest fragments. Observations were conducted at sixteen spring locations in East Java, Indonesia. These locations represent large and small forest fragments and two management orientations, namely instrumental and relational. Data on the social and psychological characteristics of visitors were combined with several biophysical indicators, including water quality. Principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to analyze these variables, and economic efficiency was evaluated using an adjusted land equivalent ratio (LER). The results show that WTP is more influenced by visit experience, visitor trust in management, and perceived benefit efficiency than by basic demographic characteristics alone. Fragments with an instrumental orientation show higher economic efficiency compared to those with a relational orientation. Meanwhile, water quality in fragments with a relational orientation is much better, as indicated by high DO and TDS levels and greater and more stable discharge values. These findings indicate differences between economic performance and ecological conditions across forest fragment categories. Therefore, integrating social, ecological, and governance dimensions is essential for developing effective conservation strategies for springs in forest fragments.

Abstract

Ultisol is a type of soil that has a low pH, high aluminum saturation, and low nutrient content. This study aims to examine the effect of coffee husk biochar and chicken manure on the chemical properties of Ultisol and determine the optimal dose to increase peanut yield. The study used a Randomized Block Design (RBD), with six levels of treatment (B0: Control; B1: 15 t ha-1 Biochar; B2: 10 t ha-1 Biochar + 5 t ha-1 Chicken Manure; B3: 7.5 t ha-1 Biochar + 7.5 t ha-1 Chicken Manure; B4: 5 t ha-1 Biochar + 10 t ha-1 Chicken Manure; B5: 15 t ha-1 Chicken Manure), replicated four times. The observed parameters included soil pH, Organic-C, Available-P, and peanut dry seed yield. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and continued with the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the level of 5%. The results of the study showed that the application of coffee husk biochar and chicken manure had a significant effect on improving the chemical properties of Ultisol, such as increasing soil pH to 5.80 (B4), Organic-C to 3.00% (B2), and increased the Available-P to 35.31 ppm (B4). In addition, in the B3 and B4 treatments, the seed yield increased by 4.20 and 4.22 t ha-1. The recommended optimum dose is a combination of 7.5 t ha-1 of coffee husk biochar and 7.5 t ha-1 of chicken manure (B3).
