Temporal Changes in Spatial Patterns of Soil Properties During a Period of Rice Growth
Wijayanto, Yagus, Anggreini, Rizqi Aprilia Putri, Purnamasari, Ika
Growing rice is complicated because of the interrelationship among production components, one of which is soil conditions. Determination of soil conditions is usually conducted by employing some soil properties. It is no doubt that soil properties have spatial and temporal characteristics. This rese...

Effect of Pottery Irrigation and Mulching on Melon (Cucumis melo) Growth and Soil Properties of Alfisol and Entisol
Rahayu, Rahayu, komariah, komariah, Pujiyarti, Mei
The water supply in dry land depends on the rainfall, which causes agricultural constraints and limited water supply. The pottery irrigation method is considered capable of overcoming water shortages during the dry season. Pottery irrigation uses porous clay, so the water slowly comes out of the pot...

Soil Chemical Properties and Agronomic Response of Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) Affected by Long Term No-Tillage Practice and Bagasse Mulch Application
Zaqyah, Irene, Niswati, Ainin, Evizal, Rusdi
Intensive tillage will continuously reduce soil quality, characterized by decreased soil organic-C. Low soil organic-C indicates the disturbance of soil fertility. More conservative soil management experiments have been done for seven years to restore the soil quality for sugarcane (Saccharum offici...

Soil Chemistry Character, the N, P, and K Uptake, and the Growth and Yield of Corn (Zea mays L.) Due to the Application of Ela Sago Palm Waste Compost and Liquid Organic Fertilizer in Ultisols
Kaya, Elizabeth, Siregar, Adelina, Matulessy, Diane
Application of organic matter (compost Sago Ela palm waste and Liquid Organic fertilizers (LOF)) to the soil could have major benefits, such as to improve the soil physical condition (soil structure, water retention), and soil chemical properties (binding and providing nutrients, increasing CEC). Th...
