Evaluasi Kesesuaian Lahan untuk Pengembangan Tanaman Kayu Putih (Malaleuca leucadendra) pada Kawasan Hutan Produksi Bali Barat (Kecamatan Grokgak) Kabupaten Buleleng Bali
Abstract: Evaluation of Land
Suitability for Development of Cajuput Tree at Area of ProductionForest in West
Bali, District of Grokgak, Buleleng Regency, Bali. The objective of theresearch
was to investigate and to map the land suitable level with limiting factor,
also to givedirection or recomendation on kajuputi development in research
area. The research used landevaluation survey method. Sample taking cunducted
by stratified purposive sampling withland unit stratum. Land quality that
observed include temprature/average temprature yearly,water availability,
rooting media, nutrient retention, nutrien availability,
salinity,terrain/mechanitation potential, and erosion danger level. Land
suitable classificationconducted by matching between land quality with crop
requirement of kajuputi (map inatachment). The result showed that actual as
well as potential land suitable and kajuputidevelopment range from moderate
suitable (S2), marginal suitable (S3), and not suitable (N)with limiting
factor: duration of drymonth, pH, efective soil depth, slope, and erosion
dangerlevel, stoniners and rockoutcrop. The effort that could be sugested for
land management wereimproving organic matter to decrease high pH and aplication
of terasering to spriest erotion.
