ANALISIS SIFAT FISIK DAN KIMIA TANAH PADA KELERENGAN YANG BERBEDA DI CV. TABALONG TIMUR KABUPATEN TABALONG KALIMANTAN SELATAN
Abstract: Physical and
chemical properties of soil is to know because it affects crop growth and
production. However, it should be observed how the state of physical and
chemical properties of soil at different soil slopes. This information is very
important to take the next step in order to maintain the productivity of
cultivated land, considering the slope effect on the amount of soil erosion
that will occur, which in turn affects the fertility of the soil, both
physically and chemically. To get the data of physical and chemical properties
of soil, which was first performed is to determine the location of sampling points
is determined by purposive sampling soil. Composite soil samples taken at
different slope, ie 0-8% (relatively flat) as a control; gradients of 8-15%
(undulating to hilly), and slope> 15% (slightly steep), then analyzed
laboratory. The results showed peneltian ground slope does not affect the state
of physical and chemical properties of soil at three observation sites were
observed. At the observation location relative soil fertile enough physically,
but not chemically fertile. The existence of several components in common soil
physical and chemical observations on the location of suspected more to
influence the condition of the same type of soil or perhaps because of the
location of observation sites are relatively close together.
Key words: physical properties,
chemical properties, slope of land
