Abstract

The research aimed to analyze the role of subsidized fertilizers on rice production and income of farmers in various land typologies. The sampling used is cluster method and followed with an experimental research by using Split Plot Design. The compound fertilizer costs are one-half times higher than single fertilizer, but the rice yield difference is enhanced by the provision of fertilizer reaching more than two-times higher compared to a single fertilizer. The rice yields can be increased more than three-times higher, but the income of farmers can be increased only about one and half times. The Government needs to make a policy of the lowest rice price, then income of farmers can be automatically increased and at the same time the welfare of famer’s families will be also increased.

Abstract

Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengkaji beberapa faktor pembatas lingkungan lahan yang selanjutnya disusun rekomendasi perbaikan, agar tanaman bisa tumbuh sesuai standar produksi. Metode penelitian adalah survai lapangan, monitoring dan pengkajian. Hasil penelitian menunjukan faktor pembatas utama sangat tergantung kepada tingkat kedalaman lapisan firit, dan fluktuasi muka air tanah harian. Selama petani bisa mengendalikan muka air tanah mendekati zona akar maka fakor pembatas lainnya bisa diperbaiki. Beberapa faktor pembatas yang bisa diperbaiki adalah pH tanah masam, hara makro rendah (nitrogen,phospor dan kalium), dan ketersediaan air karena sistem tata air yang buruk. Kajian budidaya tanaman pada kondisi iklim normal ( basah) diama curah hujan dengan bulan kering hanya 2-3 bulan tidak ditemukan pembatas utama yang permanen. Perbaikan tata air dan kesuburan tanah telah mampu menciptakan produksi optimal tanaman jagung 7 ton/ha. Namun pada kondisi iklim kering dimana masa kemarau selama 4-5 bulan maka akan muncuk faktor pembatas utama permanen yang disebabkan oleh oksidasi lapiran firit. Hal ini terjadi karena muka air tanah turun tajam >90 cm. Pada kondisi ini produksi jagung menurun lebih dari 50% area tanam gagal panen karena kekeringan, dan keracunan. Petani yang berhasil adalah yang melakukan penanaman lebih awal yaitu bulan Mei. Sementara yang tanam Juli semua gagal panen. Selain karena curah hujan yang kering juga karena petani tidak melakukan konservasi air. Pintu air tidak dioperasikan untuk menahan air di saluran tersier sehingga kehilangan air lebih cepat. Dampaknya air tanah pada bulan September turun dibawah 90 cm dan terjadilah oksidasi firit. Oleh karea itu operasi pintu sebaiknya dibuka pada saat pasang dan ditutup pada saat surut operasi ini berlansung sampai belum masuk air asin (Agustus). Dan memasuki bulan September dimana telah terjadi intrusi air asin, maka pintu air ditutup permanen. Dari kondisi diatas maka pada kondisi kemarau lebih dari 4 bulan, rekomendasi utama adalah percepatan waktu tanam, pemberian bahan pembenah tanah dan operasi pintu air dengan sistem fullretention.

Abstract

Tidal lowland is one of the potential lands for agriculture that is found very widely in coastal areas of South Sumatra. There are about 400,000 hectares (ha) was reclaimed for agriculture purpose. However, in many parts, the rice production is still low (<3 ton/ha), mainly in the high part of hydrotopography class (Type C) that the tidewater could not possibly irrigate the land.  This study aimed to evaluate the level of actual and potential suitability of tidal swamps for rice plants. This research has been carried out in Bandar Jaya Village, Air Sugihan Subdistrict, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency. This research used a survey level method with very detailed (intensive) with a scale of 1:6,000 covering a research area of 16 ha. The results showed that actual suitability for rice plants in the study site is N-n with an area of 5 ha and N-f, n with an area of 11 ha with limiting factors of soil pH and P nutrient. The potential land suitability class for rice plants in the study location is S3-n with an area of 5 ha and S3-f, n with an area of 11 ha. Land quality improvement was done by using the lime application and control water table at a depth of at least 10 cm from the soil surface during rice growth.  Rainwater should be retained in the tertiary block as much as possible to fulfill crop water requirements. Setting the planting time (November-January) and balanced fertilization will be able to increase the land suitability class to S1 (highly suitable).
