Abstract

Vertisols is black and fertile soils, derived from various parent materials, dominated by smectite clay minerals, and charasterize by crack formation during dry season. Six soil profiles consisted of thirty two soil samples from dIfferent location were analyzed for their chemical and mineralogical composition at the laboratories of Soil Research Center for soil characteristics. Results indicate that the color matrix of Vertisols varies, hue range from 2.5Y to 10YR, color value varies from 2 to 6, and chroma range from 0 to 4. Clay mineral composition of Vertisols is dominated by smectite. Other clay minerals founded in the Vertisols are kaolinite, illite and vermiculite. The mineralogy composition of sand fraction is varies, some of them rich in weatherable minerals like andesine, amfibole, orthoclase, sanidin and the others are dominated by resistant minerals such as quartz and opaque. The mineralogical composition of Vertisols dependent on their parent material. The dominant cations in Vertisols are Ca++ and Mg++. Vertisols from volcanic materials is dominated by Ca++ and followed by Mg++ cations, Vertisols from limestone is dominated by Ca++, while Vertisols from peridotite is dominated by Mg++. All of the Vertisols studied have a high cation exchange capacity with pH’s range from 5.5 to 7.4. In using Vertisols for food plantation, should be consider the high content of Ca++, Mg++ and the water management. The soils should be atleast always in moist condition, otherwise soils become very hard and cracks when dry.

Rainfed paddy fields have a great potential to be developed in Indonesia, especially in Central Java. However, water irrigation management, drought stress, pest and disease infestation and low nutrients that affect paddy yield remain the constraints. Unpredictable climate pattern is also a limiting factor in the cultivation of rainfed paddy fields. This narrative review aims to identify and discuss solutions to problems that exist to increase the yield of rainfed paddy fields with several techniques that support sustainable agriculture. This review paper was prepared by collecting government data and interviews with several farmer group leaders as complementary data. Based on field conditions, farmers in rainfed paddy fields provide fertilization inputs that are not following the fertilizer recommendations. Moreover, field conditions with limited water availability have caused paddy cultivating in several locations only once a year with low yields. Water storage can help farmers meet the need for water, especially during dry and water-stress conditions. The farmers also need to pay attention to the appropriate fertilization doses and the use of additional organic matter derived from cultivation residues, which are expected to increase the availability of nutrients in the soil. The use of short-life and drought-resistant varieties can aid in overcoming the problem of crop failure in the middle phase caused by water scarcity. Finally, we identify and emphasize that rainfed paddy fields generally have a limiting factor for water and nutrients and several technologies are needed to contribute to increasing more sustainable paddy yields

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the treatment of organic material sources Mucuna and Crotolaria and the dose of vesicle arbuscular mycorrhizae (VAM) on the chemical quality of vertisol, nutrient uptake and maize yield in dry land. The research was carried out in the experimental field of the Kupang State Agricultural Polytechnic, in the village of Oesao, East Kupang District, Kupang Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. The study took place from May to September 2021. The study design used a factorial randomized block design. The first factortreatment was source of organic matter (B) of ground cover plant biomass, namely: B0 = no ground cover plant biomass; BM = Mucuna and its biomass are immersed; BC = Crotolaria and its biomass immersed. The second treatment was dose of VAM biofertilizer (D), namely: M0 = 0 g plant-1 (without VAM); M1 = 10 g plant-1; M2 = 20 g plant-1. The results showed that the application of organic material sources and the dose of VAM, respectively, could significantly improve the chemical properties of vertisol. The results showed that the use of organic matter and dose of VAM independently was proven to be the most effective in improving the chemical quality of vertisol. Application of organic matter Mucuna and Crotolaria at a dose of VAM 20 g plant-1 significantly increased N uptake in maize by 53.26‒54.45%, maize P uptake by 27.83% and 28.85%, and the yield of dry shelled corn by 146.92% and 146.92% compared to other treatments.

... However, after conducting more detailed research related to soil classification in the Baraja land system (BRA), there is a process of soil development (pedogenesis) so that the type of soil in the land system has changed over time from the category of the Inceptisol order (young soils that have not been developed further) to the order Vertisols. This occurs because of accumulating minerals 2:1, and the second is the expansion and contraction process that occurs periodically to form slickenside or microrelief [12]. ...
... Vertisol soil is one of the orders in the taxonomy of soils that expands when exposed to water, contracts, and becomes hard when dry [13]. The unique property of vertisols is associated with shrinking-swelling, resulting in vertical mixing (pedoturbation), lateral shear, cracks, slickensides, and gilgai [12,14]. Soils are an important part of agriculture as a nutrient source for plants and organisms. ...

Soil characteristics in Mangarabombang Subdistrict Takalar Regency, according to some expert opinions, are classified as Vertisols soil order, but in the RePPPRot Land System Review Map, it’s still classified as an Inceptisols soil order. Therefore more detailed research is needed regarding the soil order at that location. According to Soil Taxonomy at the sub-group category, this research aims to determine the types of soil in the karstic lowland of Baraja (BRA) land system. The method used is the toposequence transect and the analysis of physical and chemical properties, including soil color, structure, texture, bulk density, C-organic, CEC, pH, COLE, electrical conductivity, and bases saturation. These research results are the soil in the Baraja land system is undulating (34 masl), and flat (20 masl) was classified as Vertisol Order with the Lithic Haplusterts Sub-Group with limestone as a parent rock. The soil is characterized by open and closed fractures periodic, and there is lithic contact. The soil in flat areas (10 masl) was classified as Inceptisol soil with the Vertic Haplustepts Sub-Group with highly weathered limestone as parent rock. A cambic horizon characterizes the soil with thin lamellae and an alteration process, but it has fractures closed and open periodically. Soil types formed in the karstic lowland of Baraja (BRA) land system in Mangarabombang Sub-District was Vertisol with the Lithic Haplusterts Sub-Group and Inceptisols with the Vertic Haplustepts Sub-Group. The type of soil formed is affected by dominant factors, including climate (low rainfall), the parent material (limestone), and topography.
... At the pH of around 7.0, Ca and base saturations, and CEC values were >80 and approached 90%, approached 50 cmol (+) kg -1 respectively. Cations contents in Vertisols soil with pH around 7.0 in Ungaran Central Java, Madiun East Java and Lewa Sumba were dominated by Ca cation with saturation values of 84.8, 73.0, and 94.7% respectively [24]. Although the soil had a high content of exchangeable Mg and K, their saturations were only 2.2-13.2, and 0.39-1.08%. ...
... There was a mutually suppressive relationship between Ca and Mg, which both elements are having two valences. The high content of Mg and Na in the soil inhibited the uptake of K and Ca, and the quality of pomelo fruit to be better in the treatments with K/Ca, K/Mg, and Ca/Mg ratios between 0. 24 In soils with Ca and Mg saturations are <60 and around 37.76%, the addition of Ca nutrient is required in this soil. On soil with Ca and Mg saturations are >80 and around 6.13 to 13.17% where Mg is still below the ideal limit, so it is necessary to add Mg nutrients. ...

The soil cation ratio is the result of the interaction of various factors, including soil acidity, organic C content, clay minerals, and cultivation management. This paper aims were to study the cation ratio in lowland rice in Java and its relationship with the other nutrients. Soil chemical data were collected from survey for soil maps, soil nutrient status maps, and previously published data. The results showed that the average of cation saturation ratio in lowland rice in Java was 70.8:24.5:1.5 for Ca:Mg:K. The Ca, Mg, K, and Na nutrient contents vary by provinces, and there is a high content of Ca, especially in those soils derived from the calcareous parent materials. This high Ca of >50.0 cmol (+) kg ⁻¹ has noticed in Grobogan, Bojonegoro, and Gunung Kidul regencies. The domination of Ca cations in the soil can be seen when the Ca saturation >70%, spreading in 36 districts. Ca saturation is positively correlated with pH, P-Bray, and CEC, and negatively correlated with organic C, N-total, Mg, K, and Na saturation. Based on the regression there is a significant negative relationship between Ca and Mg saturations with R ² = 0.92 and a weak negative relationship between K and Na saturations.

The application of biofilm biofertilizer is potential to improve soil fertility and increase plant yield. The research aimed to assess the use of organic fertilizer decomposed with biofilm biofertilizer to improve soil fertility and yield of upland kale in Vertisol. The field experiment was conducted in Vertisol at Jaten, Karanganyar, Central Java, arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design with a single factor, which was organic fertilizer dose consisting of 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21 ton.ha-1 organic with NPK fertilizer as comparison treatment. Upland kale seeds were planted in 15 x 15 cm plant spacing. The variables observed were total nitrogen, available P, exchangeable K, soil organic matter, pH, cation exchange capacity, leaf number, plant height, fresh and dry weight. The data obtained were analyzed using F test followed by Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) 95%. The result showed that the organic fertilizer dose had a significant effect on all of the observed variables. Optimal doses of organic fertilizer to improve soil fertility and upland kale yield was 15 - 18 ton.ha-1. The highest yield of upland kale was observed in the treatment of 21 ton.ha-1 organic fertilizer (76.5 ton.ha-1), which was increased by 176% compared to control (34.7 ton.ha-1) and by 108.8% (45.78 ton.ha-1) compared to NPK treatments. The application of 3 ton.ha-1 organic fertilizer gave better yield of upland kale than NPK fertilizer.
... Uji korelasi dan uji kontras digunakan untuk mengetahui hubungan antar peubah dan mana yang paling berpengaruh. Kandungan bahan organik pada tanah vertisol pada umumnya rendah, yaitu berkisar 0,06 sampai 4,46% (Prasetyo, 2007), sedangkan C organik pada tanah vertisol ini tinggi, yaitu 3,9 % (Balittanah, 2005). Hal ini diduga karena adanya penambahan bahan organik pada saat pengolahan tanah sebelumnya, sehingga menyebabkan kandungan bahan organik pada tanah ini juga meningkat (Mohanty et al., 2013). ...
... Kandungan P dan K pada tanah vertisol ini tergolong rendah, yaitu 0,0178 ppm untuk P tersedia dan K tersedia 0,06 me/ 100 g. Rendahnya ketersediaan P mungkin disebabkan sebagian dari P diserap oleh kation Ca ++ , sedangkan K tersedia rendah diduga sedikitnya kandungan mineral feldspar (orthoklas, sanidin) dalam tanah (Prasetyo, 2007). KPK merupakan jumlah total kation yang dapat dipertukarkan pada koloid tanah yang bermuatan negatif. ...

Vertisols are soils that have a high cation exchange capacity but tend to have a low organic matter content. Meanwhile, nutrients availability in vertisol tends to be low because these elements are bound by clay particles, so the nutrient availability is limited for plantsThe aim of this research is to investigate the influence of rice husk biochar and corn cob biochar application on the changes in chemical properties of Vertisol soil and the vegetative growth of mung bean (Vigna radiata L.). The study was conducted using a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with an experimental approach. There were 8 treatments repeated 6 times, resulting in a total of 48 experimental units. The rice husk biochar (P) treatments included the control without rice husk biochar (BSP0), rice husk biochar at a rate of 60 g/kg soil (150 tons/ha) + 2.5 kg soil (BSP1), rice husk biochar at a rate of 30 g/kg soil (75 tons/ha) + 2.5 kg soil (BSP2), and rice husk biochar at a rate of 15 g/kg soil (37.5 tons/ha) + 2.5 kg soil (BSP3). The corn cob biochar (J) treatments included the control without corn cob biochar (BTJ0), corn cob biochar at a rate of 60 g/kg soil (150 tons/ha) + 2.5 kg soil (BTJ1), corn cob biochar at a rate of 30 g/kg soil (75 tons/ha) + 2.5 kg soil (BTJ2), and corn cob biochar at a rate of 15 g/kg soil (37.5 tons/ha) + 2.5 kg soil (BTJ3). The research data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) at a significance level of 5%. Significant differences between treatments were further analyzed using the Duncan's New Multiple Range Test (BNJ) at a significance level of 5%. The soil analysis was carried out at the Soil Physics and Soil Chemistry Laboratories, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Mataram. The results of the research showed that biochar application influenced the chemical properties of the soil (pH, Cation Exchange Capacity, Organic-C) and the growth of mung bean plants in Lombok's Vertisol soil. Biochar did not have a significant effect on the height of mung bean plants at 7 and 14 days after planting (DAP), but it had a significant effect at 21, 28, and 35 DAP. However, the application of biochar did not significantly affect the number of leaves and dry weight of mung bean plants.

Endomikoriza dikenal sebagai pupuk hayati potensial lahan kering karena kemampuannya dalam menyediakan unsur hara bagi tanaman pada kondisi sub optimal. Beberapa penelitian telah mengemukakan bahwa mikoriza mampu meningkatkan serapan hara khususnya fosfor, kalium, dan juga mampu meningkatkan toleransi tanaman yang tumbuh pada kondisi tanah krisis hara dan air. Penelitian ini telah dilakukan untuk mengkaji seberapa besar pengaruh endomikoriza pada kondisi ketersediaan air yang berbeda pada tanah vertisol yang dibudidaya tanaman paprika. Pada penelitian ini, secara statistik belum membuktikan kemanjuran endomikoriza dalam meningkatkan hara P tersedia, serapan P dan hasil tanaman paprika pada tanah vertisol dengan tingkat ketersediaan air berbeda. Perlakuan ketersediaan air 60% belum cukup membuat tanaman paprika tercekam sehingga keberadaan endomikoriza tidak memberikan pengaruh atas hasil dari beberapa variabel yang diamati. Namun, pada perlakuan tingkat ketersediaan air tanah 80% kapasitas lapang meningkatkan P-tersedia, jumlah bakal bunga dan jumlah bunga paprika yang terbentuk. Berdasarkan pengalaman penelitian ini, dianjurkan agar sebelum aplikasi endomikoriza, perlu terlebih dahulu mensterilkan tanah yang akan digunakan sebagai media. Selain itu, penggunaan endomikoriza sebagai perlakuan, baiknya mengisolasi spora murni dan telah diidentifikasi hingga genus atau bahkan dapat berupa spesies tertentu, bukan dalam bentuk propagul tanah.

The high level of clay and the predominance of 2:1 montmorillonite clay on the soil affect the swelling and shrinking of Vertisols soils, inhibiting plant rooting. This study aims to determine the way of giving and the amount of water in Vertisols soil from Jeneponto Regency, Province of South Sulawesi, Indonesia. This research is an experimental pot in a greenhouse, Faculty of Agriculture, Hasanuddin University, Indonesia. This study used a two-factor block random design method, namely the water provision factor consisting of 2 treatments and the water content factor consisting of 4 treatments with three repeats so that 24 treatment pots were obtained. The water is given through the surface and drops with a water content of 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25% of the field capacity. The results showed that the Vertisols Jeneponto had an available waterwater content of 24.60% (field capacity water content of 40.80% and permanent wilting point of 16.20%) with a clay content of 82%. The water provision method affects the width and depth of the fracture as the vegetative and root growth of maize. The results also showed that continuously applying water in limited quantities (drips method with a water content of 75% of field capacity) directly into the root area of plants can suppress the occurrence of shrinking and increase vegetative and root growth of maize as well as the use of a smaller amount of water compared to the surface method.

... Thus, the availability of K in the soil is highly dependent on the addition of external sources, fixation by the soil itself and the addition of potassium itself [12]. The main source of K in the soil is feldspar minerals (orthoclase, sanidin), so the presence of these minerals in the soil indicates a source of K [30]. Nutrient K is high, because indeed this nutrient in the earth's crust or on the surface of the soil is quite high, and the deeper it is from the soil surface, the K nutrient content is lower [31]. ...

Information on the relationship of rainfall with discharge and sediment are required in watershed management.This relationship is known to be highly nonlinear and complex. Although discharge and sediment has been monitored continuously, but sometimes the information is not or less complete. In this condition, modeling is indispensable.The research objective is to create a model to predict the monthly direct runoff and sediment using Artificial Neural Network (ANN).The model was tested using rainfall data at t-3 and t-4 as input, and discharge and sediment at t+3 and t+4 as output. The data used is the data from 2001 to 2014. The results showed that of some models tested there are two models for the prediction of discharge and two models for sediment.The model was chosen because it has the smallest MSE, the largest R2 and satisfying K (0.5 to 0.65).Thus, these models can be used to predict discharge andsediment for a period of t+3 and t+4. Prediction of discharge of t+3 and t+4 may use Q t+3 = 0,64 Q t-3 + 0,05 and Q t+4 = 0,65 Q t-4 + 0,074 res pectively, while for predicting sediment of t+3 and t+4 may use equations QS t+3 = 0,45 QS t-3 + 0,052 and QS t+4 = 0,45 QS t-4 + 0,052. This ANN modeling can be applied to predict the flow and sediment in other locations with an architecture adapted to the conditions of available data.

Motor vehicle gas emission contains lead (Pb) which is a hazardous and toxic substance. Agricultural land, especially rice field, which is located nearby roads passed by many motor vehicle, are susceptible to the accumulation of Pb. If Pb is permeated by plants cultivated in the rice field, it will be very hazardous for humans as they are the final consumers. Hence, it is essential to identify Pb content of rice-field soil initiated by motor vehicle gas emission. This study was aimed to identify the effects of motor vehicle density, the distance between rice-field and road, and the clay content of soil towards Pb content of soils in Blitar and Ngawi Regencies of East Java. The method used for the study was survey method managed by using three-factor nested design with three replicates. The results of this study showed that motor vehicle density and the distance of rice field to road provide significant affected the total of Pb content of soil. However, the dissemination pattern of Pb in the soil was irregular due to the factors of climate and environment. Before Pb reached soil surface, Pb was spread out in the air due to the effect of temperature, wind velocity, vehicle velocity, size of vehicle, and road density. Consequently, the location with low motor vehicle density and positioned faraway to the road had higher total rate of Pb than the location with high motor vehicle density and positioned nearby the road. Clay content affected the total rate of Pb content as much as 37%, every 1% increase of clay content increased the total rate of Pb as much as 0.08 mg/kg.

p>Soil fertility is a crucial factor determining the growth and yield of plants. The increase of nutrient content and availability in soil can be achieved by fertilization. A field experiment was conducted using a Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD) with two factors and three replications in order to study the effects of Mixed Source of Fertilizer (MSF) application on the nutrient contents in Vertisol and its relationship to the growth and yield of mustard. The first factor was the three MSF formulas (F1, F2, F3) and second factor was the doses of MSF (0; 2.5; 5.0; 7.5; 10 Mg ha-1) applied to the soil. At the end of the experiment, the soil pH, CEC, organic-C, total-N, available-P and exchangeable-K contents were measured. The results show that there are no significant differences on the soil chemical characteristics, such as pH, organic-C content, available-P, exchangeable-K, -Ca and -Mg measured after application of different MSF formulas to the soil. Meanwhile, the increase of MSF doses applied to the soil significantly increases organic-C content, total-N, available-P and exchangeable-K in the soil. The significant increase of available-P (by 29.13%) and total-N (by 24.1%) occured after application of MSF at 5.0 Mg ha-1 and the increase of exchangeable-K (by 50%) is achieved after application of 7.5 Mg ha-1, in comparison to that without MSF application. The height and fresh weight of mustard increase in accordance with the increase of MSF doses applied. The application of 10.0 Mg ha-1 MSF results in the highest height and fresh weight of the mustard up to 63.9% and 620%, respectively. The height and fresh weight of mustard are positively correlated to the total-N, available-P and exchangeable-K in the soil. The MSF is an alternative fertilizer that can be used to improve Vertisol fertility and plant growth. Keywords: Coconut husk ash, feldspar, mixed source fertilizer, phosphate rock,Vertisol</p

The fertilizer availability as source of N, P, and K nutrient where plant responsif was difficult found by farmer. Thefore, It was needed information about nutrient availability in soil properties to know nutrient deficiency of its by maize as plant indicator. The objective of this research was to study the respons of N, P, and K fertilizers and the best combination of it on the growth and yield of Maize.

The nature of organic matter (OM) of five Vertisols was investigated by means of Diffuse Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (DRIFT) on whole soil samples and on stable aggregates of different size, separated by water dispersion. This method allows the IR spectra of soil OM to be obtained in its original state, unaltered by chemical treatments and with part of the functional groups bound to the mineral components.Further information on the nature of OM was obtained by electrofocusing (EF) analyses of the 0.1 M Na4P207-NaOH extracts of soils and of water stable soil aggregates. The relationship of OM with soil fabric was investigated by determining the organic carbon distribution in the different waterstable fractions.Our results show that OM is concentrated in the silt size aggregates and its nature appears rather uniform in the five Vertisols. In particular, DRIFT analyses reveal the existence of very strong hydrogen bonds between the OM and the soil mineral fraction and the presence, in the natural soils, of compounds, such as cyclic anhydrides. Moreover, aromatic substances appear concentrated in the water-stable, silt-size aggregates, while relatively simple aliphatic compounds seem to prevail in clay fractions. In the “apparent”silt fraction EF analyses show the presence of considerable amounts of organo-metal complexes, probably responsible for the aggregation of fine clay particles.
