Abstract

[IMPACT OF THE TILLAGE SYSTEM AND OIL PALM EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH MULCH ON GROWTH, YIELD OF SWEET CORN (Zea mays saccharata) AND GROUNDWATER SYSTEM].  This study aims to determine the impact of land management and the use of oil palm empty fruit bunches (TKKS) mulch. This research was conducted from August to October 2018, arranged in a split plot design with two factors. As a first factor, land management consists of unprocessed, plowed, and plowed and harrowed. The treatment of oil palm empty fruit bunches mulch as the second factor consisted of no mulch, 9 tonnes/ha of mulch, 12 tonnes/ha of mulch, and 15 tonnes/ha of mulch. Plant variables observed consisted of plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, fresh plant weight, plant dry, ear weight, ear length, ear diameter. Soil variables observed were the redistribution of groundwater and infiltration. The results showed no significant interaction between the tillage system and the application of oil palm empty fruit bunch mulch on all observed variables. Treatment without tillage or mulch dose of 12 tons/ha can provide growth and yield of sweet corn plants better than other treatments. The highest water content and infiltration rate were obtained from the dosage of oil palm empty bunches mulch 15 tons/ha. Soil cultivation by plowing and harrowing produces the highest infiltration rate compared to lower tillage intensities. About 18% to 42% of the diversity of growth and yield of sweet corn plants have a significant relationship with the diversity of groundwater.

Abstract

Soil water availability to the plants is a range of water content between the field capacity and the permanent wilting point (PWP) conditions. The PWP is defined as the lower limit of soil water content that the plant can extract water from the soil as indicated by the symptoms of wilting plants. This is because plant roots are unable to penetrate the soil micropores that contain the water.  The study aims to analyze the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and compost in enhancing soil water absorption by the plant when the water content is close to the permanent wilting point. Four doses of AMF (0, 5, 10 and 15 g.plant-1) and three doses of coffee pulp-made compost (0, 5 and 10 ton.ha-1) were arranged according to a randomized complete block design with three replicates. Results showed that the application of AMF significantly enabled the plant to improve water uptake when the soil water content was about at the permanent wilting point conditions. The AMF addition of 15 g.plant-1 significantly prolonged the growing period of chili to wither and the plant showed the wilting symptoms at the soil water content of 5 to 7% lower than the no-AMF plants. Improved water uptake under water stress conditions was attributed to increases in the root colonization by AMF.

Abstract

Soil moisture prediction models on a regional scale can be developed by looking for the relationship between water balance and basic soil properties such as texture and organic matter.  Our previous research has obtained soil dielectric properties measurement technology as an estimator of soil moisture that can be done quickly in the field. The purpose of this study was to apply this technology in estimating the characteristics of soil moisture insitu in the field on a district scale in Bengkulu Province.  The research was conducted for three years in three different districts in Bengkulu Province. The results of the third year to early October 2021 study showed that land under thicket stands and oil palm had higher weekly groundwater fluctuations than under rubber. The highest impedace of groundwater below the thickets and palms are present at depths of 0-20 cm and 0-10 cm, respectively.  However thickets have fluctuations in the depth of total groundwater (0-30 cm depth) that are higher than those of oil palms during three months of measurement.  In contrast, the soil moisture content profile under the rubber stand is relatively more stable against the influence of weekly rainfall during the measurement. An analysis of the relationship between non-free variables (field capacity moisture content, permanent wilting point and water available) and free variables (sand, dust, clay and C-organic) will be carried out in November 2021
