PENDUGAAN CADANGAN KARBON PADA TANAMAN KARET (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) DI PERKEBUNAN RAKYAT DESA TAREAN KECAMATAN SILINDAK, KABUPATEN SERDANG BEDAGAI
ABSTRACT: Global warming is
causing an increase in temperature of the earth's atmosphere, climate change,
resulting in the dry season and rising temperatures. Efforts to control global
warming is with the plant the absorption of carbon. One of which is rubber
plant that has a high potential carbon reserve. The purpose of this research
want to know the carbon content in each section rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis
Muell. Arg.) and determine the potential of carbon reserves in the rubber tree
(Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) Age of 5 years in people plantation Serdang
Bedagai. The method of estimaty carbon stocks done destructive and selection of
plant samples carried out with purposive sampling. The carbon content in each
section rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) 5 years of age is
different is stem 50.37%, 40.58% branches and leaves 21.68%. The results showed
that allometric models for biomass and carbon has W = 3.425 DBH1.153 and C = 0.582
DBH 1.586 , respectively. The potential of biomass and carbon in smallholder
rubber plantations Tarean Village, District Silindak, Serdang Bedagai were 2.71
tons / ha and 1.18 tons C / ha, respectively.
Keywords: Karet (Hevea
brasiliensis Muell. Arg), carbon stocks, biomass measurement, allometric models
