KAJIAN LAJU INFILTRASI PADA BERBAGAI PENGGUNAAN LAHAN DI KEBUN PERCOBAAN KWALA BEKALA USU DESA DURIN TONGGAL KECAMATAN PANCUR BATU KABUPATEN DELI SERDANG
ABSTRACT: Infiltration is one
of very important element in the hydrological cycle as it relates to the
intensity of rainfall that will affect the water storage in the soil and
erosion. This study was aimed to determine the rate of infiltration in the
fields of rubber, cassava, maize and cacao in subdistrict Pancur Batu using
Philips equation model. The results showed that in the field of rubber with
argillaceous sand texture the infiltration rate was fp = 0.460006 +
2,24274t-0,5 cm / min, in the cassava fields with sandy loam texture the
infiltration rate was fp = 0.018388 + 2 , 40156t-0,5 cm / min, in maize field
with sandy clay loam soil texture the infiltration rate was fp = 0.08988 +
1,95682t-0,5 cm / min, and cacao field with sandy clay loam texture the
infiltration rate was fp = 0.05513 + 0,44371t -0,5cm / min.
