Abstract

Cassava effluent has become a subject of growing environmental concern in developing countries largely due to ineffective disposal methods. In this study, the impact of land disposal technique by processors in Ayetoro, Ogun State Nigeria was investigated. Soil samples were collected from three disposal sites scattered across the study area at depths of 0 cm, 15 cm, 30 cm and 45 cm. Results were compared with samples obtained from control sites at a distance of 5 m from the disposal sites. The physicochemical parameters determined includes soil pH, silt, sand, clay, organic carbon, exchangeability acid, pH, total nitrogen, average phosphorous, zinc, lead, iron, sodium, copper, calcium, potassium, magnesium and manganese. The result show that the pH varies significantly across the sites. The highest concentration was recorded for phosphorous while the lowest concentration was obtained for total nitrogen. The highest concentrations were recorded at the soil surface while the lowest were recorded at 45 cm depth. Idagba recorded the highest pollutant concentration and while the lowest were obtained at kano. The activities and discharge techniques of processors had negatively impacted the soil quality which may also affect the ground water quality. There is a need to take proactive measures to protect the environment through adequate sensitization and enforcement of environmental laws.

Abstract

Upstream cultivation activities by use intensive fertilization have an impact on water quality degradation. Accumulation within several decades will cause damage to the hydrological conditions the watershed. Residual substances and heavy metals due to intensive fertilization will affect the biotic and abiotic components of the watershed ecosystem. Water in Indonesia is divided into several classes, namely class I, II, III and IV. Every class has a quality standard according to its designation class. This study aimed at evaluating the status of water quality based on physical and chemical parameters in the upstream area (rainfall catchment). Water sampling was carried out at three points, namely water sources (in), locations of aquaculture activities (irrigation), and rivers (out). Chemical parameter results showed that DO was 7.16 mgO2/ L in the river (out), BOD was 7.84 mg/L  in irrigation, COD in the river was 25,50 mg/L, the irrigation point nitrate was 6.75 mg/L, and pH average was 6.80 almost at each sample point. As for the physical parameters consisting of colour, smell, and temperature. The physical parameters based on Government Regulation No. 82/2001 were still in accordance with the specified quality standards. Management through monitoring river water quality requires an integrated model as an effort to conserve water resources. Result Rapid Rural Appraisal in the upstream area of the Bedadung Jember watershed showed that the role of institutions at the farm level was less than optimal. Communication between farmers level, agricultural extension workers, and several stakeholders was not good. Meanwhile, the participation of the community and several stakeholders had an important role as users of natural resources in conservation.

Abstract

The co-benefits from the implementation of ecosystem-based approaches in managing land degradation and enhancing ecosystem services have not been adequately explored in the mainstream literature. The study aims at identifying the indicators of land degradation and the associated ecosystem-based approaches used to remedy the situation. The ecosystem-based approaches refer to ecosystems and ecosystem services together with their flexible management in a cultural setting. The paper adopts a descriptive research design with quantitative and qualitative approaches. Principally, it targets 236 smallholder farmers for the survey, key informants for interviews and community members for focus group discussion. The results revealed that land degradation is mainly identified by reduced crop yield (53%). Farmer identification of land degradation is influenced by the age of the farmer (p = 0.001) with  The ecosystem-based approaches include stone bonding, crop rotation, mulching and particularly, composting (53%). The ecosystem-based approaches are statistically linked to the communities with p-value of 0.020. A p-value of 0.001 shows that the ecosystem-based approaches are beneficial in the various study communities. Farmers’ experience over the past five years is statistically related to the age of respondents (p = 0.008). The p-value of 0.000 indicates very strong statistical significance of the challenges of ecosystem-based approaches in the communities. The ecosystem-based approaches have long term goals for sustainable land improvement and may not be realized unless there is direct policy to take care of the approaches even in the short term.

Abstract

Bojonegoro Sub-district is the capital of Bojonegoro District, East Java Province, Indonesia. This area has quite high economic growth supported by large oil and gas reserves in the district. An increasing number of population and improving economy will cause more water needs. People in this area use groundwater as their main source for daily purposes. However, information on the potential of groundwater resources is not yet well available. Therefore, the study aims to determine groundwater flow patterns, the distribution of aquifers, and groundwater geochemistry. The study was conducted by measuring groundwater level as many as 42 points; both dug wells and deep wells, 18 points geo-electrical surveys, and chemical analysis of eight groundwater samples. The results showed groundwater flow direction into the Bengawan Solo River with the primary aquifer of the sandstone lens. All groundwater samples indicate that the type of groundwater is calcium magnesium bicarbonate (Ca2+ - Mg2+ - HCO3-) and come from one system. High nitrate content was found in some areas, probably due to contamination from agricultural or urban wastewater. Therefore, it needs some actions for groundwater protection and conservation in this area to support the sustainable use of groundwater.

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to determine the traditional oil and gas mining community welfare in Wonocolo, Kedewan, Bojonegoro. Welfare hierarchy will explain about needs fulfilment which is needed by the development planning process. The research used a mixed-method which is the result of scoring by quantitative analysis validated by the description of qualitative data. The results of this research indicated that the welfare hierarchy of the traditional oil and gas mining community in Wonocolo is in the ultimate means to intermediate means level, which means they are in low welfare hierarchy. It is shown by the community that still prioritized physiological needs fulfilment rather than self-development necessity. On the other hand, the fulfilment of basic needs taken from nature in Wonocolo is also vulnerable because the water and air are polluted by oil. In addition, the nature of oil that is non-renewable and unsustainable causes an economic vulnerability in Wonocolo community.

Abstract

Soil acidity and problems related to aluminium (Al) toxicity are usually limiting factors for soil use in agriculture. Problems with acid soils can be overcome by liming. Another potential way to overcome problems of acid soils is to utilize young coal enriched with sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) or Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. The purpose of this study was to assess the utilization of coal enriched with SRB or A. ferrooxidans as an alternative ameliorant to provide transformation of aluminium fractions and phosphorus availability in acid soils. There were two acid soils (Ultisols) studied with differences in the content of exchangeable Al. Al fraction was differentiated into exchangeable Al (Al-exch), crystalline Al (Al-dithionite), non-crystalline Al (Al-o), organic Al bound (Al-p), non-crystalline inorganic Al (Al-po), as low or medium complex with organic matter (Al-Cu), highly stabilized Al complex with organic matter (Al-pCu). The results showed that for acid soils from Jasinga West Java and Lebak Banten, coal or lime ameliorant, microbial A. ferrooxidans or sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and coal or lime ameliorant enriched with A. ferrooxidans or sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) significantly affected the value of Al fraction. Coal or lime ameliorant enriched with A. ferrooxidans could reduce the Al fraction content in acid soils. Coal or lime ameliorant enriched with SRB could increase the availability of P in acid soil from Jasinga West Java with the distribution of Al-pCu > Al-dhitionite > Al-po > Al-exch > Al-Cu fraction. Coal or lime ameliorant enriched with SRB could increase the availability of P in acid soil from Lebak Banten with the distribution of Al-pCu > Al-po > Al-dhitionite > Al-Cu> Al-exch

Abstract

Most of the activities of the use of organic fertilizers and natural additions of organic matter in agricultural intensification fields in Indonesia have not been able to compensate for the rate of decline in soil organic matter by the decomposition process. Biochar has a high C level and has the mean residence time in a long period in the soils. It has been proven that biochar applications may increase soil Carbon but have not been able to increase plant production. Therefore, the use of biochar combined with organic waste rich in nutrients is essential to develop. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of some biochar compositions with sugar cane, chicken manure, fish waste in the form of biopellet fertilizer on improving the chemical properties of sandy soils and the vegetative growth of soybean plants. This study used a completely randomized block design with two factors. The first factor (B) was the composition of biochar consisting of three levels, namely: 70% biochar, 15% chicken manure, 15% fish waste (B1), 50 % biochar, 25% chicken manure, 25% fish waste (B2), and 20% biochar, 40% chicken manure, 40% fish waste (B3). The second factor (D) was the dose of biopellet fertilizers consisting of four levels, namely: control (D0), 2.5 t/ha (D1), 5 t/ha (D2), and 10 t/ha (D3). The results showed that the addition of biopellet fertilizer effectively improved soil chemical properties (pH, C-organic, and CEC) and the availability of N, P, and K of the sandy soil. The effectiveness of increasing the soil total-N varied from 32.42 to 75.79%, P-available varied from 17.46 to 40.69%, and exchangeable K ranged from 8.7 to 25.67%. Improvement of soil chemical properties and the availability of N, P, and K by biopellet fertilizer application increased plant growth but reduced the weight of root nodules.

Abstract

 As a source of minerals, water must be continuously maintained, including in term of its quality. Meanwhile, swamps are wetlands that have the potential to experience a decline in water quality. The presence of river borders in swamps has been known to maintain their water quality. Vegetation cover of the river border is established through restoration activities in which it is expected, directly and indirectly, to improve water quality. This study aimed to investigate the water quality in swamp using the Water Quality Index (WQI). Surveys were carried out and samples were collected to determine the effect of restoration on river border in swamps. Samples were collected severally, namely prior to restoration (T0), first year (T1), third year (T3) and fourth year (T4) after restoration. The parameters for water quality of T0 and T1 include pH, DO, BOD, TDS, turbidity and nitrate, while for T3 and T4 include: pH, DO, BOD, TDS, temperature, phosphate, E. coli and nitrate. The findings indicated that the WQI of the swamp prior to restoration was greater than that at the first year of restoration due to the process of land clearing. Meanwhile, the WQI at the third year has improved compared to before the restoration and land clearing phase. It suggests that the presence of vegetation on river border is able to improve the water quality. At the fourth year, a fire in the upstream reached the area adjacent to the study site. It led to a decline in surface water quality and affected the water quality index. Furthermore, the abundance of aquatic biota was indicated by two taxa of zooplankton in the third year of restoration while none of them was identified in the fourth year. In overall, restoration activities on the river border improve the quality of water in swamps in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

A pot experiment was conducted to determine the effects of lime, coffee husk compost and their combinations on growth response of coffee (Coffea arabica L.) seedlings at Haru Research Sub-Center nursery site in West Ethiopia in 2016/17. The experiment was laid out in a factorial experiment arranged in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. The treatments included four levels of lime (0, 2, 4 and 6 g/2.5k g soil (pot)) and coffee husk compost (0, 6.25, 12.5 and 18.75 g/2.5 kg soil (pot)). The relevant shoot and root growth parameters data were collected and subjected to Analysis of Variance using SAS package and treatment means were compared at 0.05 probability using Duncan’s Multiple Range Test. The results revealed that lime and coffee husk compost rates significantly (p ≤ 0.01) affected the shoot and root growth of coffee seedlings. The highest growth performance of coffee seedlings (plant height, stem girth, leaf number and area, tap and lateral root length, lateral root number, root volume, stem, leaf and root dry matter) were obtained from the application of 18.75 g/pot coffee husk compost and combined lime and coffee husk compost at the modest levels of 4g/pot lime and 12.5 g/pot coffee husk compost with a non-significant variation. From the study, it can be concluded that application of 18.75 g/pot coffee husk compost or combining 12.5 g/pot of coffee husk compost and 4 g/pot of agricultural lime could be a promising alternative amendment for acid soil management and production of vigorous coffee seedlings in Haru areas. But, further investigations should be continued under field conditions across locations and seasons to evaluate the effects of liming and coffee husk composts in ameliorating soil acidity, and improving growth, yield and quality of coffee varieties and establish their profitable levels for sustainable soil fertility management and production of Wollega coffee in west Ethiopia.

Abstract

Agriculture lands in coastal areas face the risk of increasing salinity due to the influence of sea water. Salinity poses complex problems for plants at all growth stages which are difficult to be addressed. Trichoderma is a microorganism known to promote plant growth and to induce plant tolerance to abiotic stresses including salinity. The research aimed to evaluate effective Trichoderma for improving groundnut growth and yield in a saline environment. The research was conducted on saline soil (EC >8 dS/m) at Gesikharjo Village, Palang Sub District, Tuban District from July to October 2019. Treatments were combinations between N and P fertilization, and four Trichoderma strains and these treatments were arranged in a randomized completely block design with six replicates, using Hypoma 1 groundnut cultivar.  Soil fertility and salinity, growth, yield and yield components were recorded as observed parameters. The results showed that NP fertilization on high salinity soils (ECs of 8.80-15.91 dS/m) with low N and high P had no significant effect on all variables compared to those of N fertilization. Applications of Trichoderma increased plant height and minimized plant death as indicated by a higher percentage of plant population at harvest compared to that of without inoculation. Among the four Trichoderma strains, Trichoderma #3 and Trichoderma #4 showed more effective than the other two strains in improving plant growth based on the shoot dry weight at the R1 phase, plant height and percentage of plant population at harvest. The positive effect of Trichoderma #3 and #4 could be due to the ability to promote plant growth as well as to induce plant resistance against salinity stress. The results suggested that Trichoderma was effective to alleviate salinity stress on groundnut crops. This research was the first trial carried out in the field and therefore needs to be further investigated, including Trichoderma formulations and application techniques.
