Judul: Pengaruh pemberian bahan humat dan zeolit terhadap sifat-sifat kimia tanah dan kadar unsur pada kelapa sawit (Elaeis guineensis jacq.)
Abstrak: Indonesian oil palm productivity is still relatively low, which among others caused by factors that are still lacking good management and the nature of matter and soil characteristics in oil palm plantations. Land planted with oil palms generally have cation exchange capacity (CEC) and soil organic matter content is low, so the ability of soil nutrients and low water. One attempt to fix the problem on the ground done by setting the humic substance. This research was conducted with the aim to determine the effect of humic substance with zeolite carriers to changes in soil chemical properties and nutrient content in oil palm plantations. The research was conducted in oil palm plantations PTPN VIII, Cimulang, Rancabungur district, Bogor regency. Experiments using completely randomized factorial design with two factors. Provision of humic substance as the first factor, with a dose of humic materials: 0 liters / ha (H0), 5 liters / ha (H1), 10 liters / ha (H2), 15 liters / ha (H3), while the zeolite is used as administered dose carrier: 0 kg / liter humic substance (Z0), 10 kg / liter humic substance (Z1), and 20 kg / liter humic substance (Z2).

Judul: Pengaruh Pirit Terhadap Sifat Kimia Tanah Serta Produksi Tanaman Kelapa Sawit (E. guineensis)
Abstrak: Development of oil palm plantation areas in Indonesia has significantly increased every years. This makes the development leads to marginal lands, like the lands acid sulfate soil which has sulfidic material. The expansion of the plantation into the marginal lands, is not an expected alternative, but the suitable lands were limited. Oxidation of pyritic material in aerobic condition will produce sulfuric acid and mineral jarosit with extreme acidity that can prohibit plant growth. The conditions is obtained due to land reclaimation through establishment of drainage facilities. On the other hand, large amounts of plant nutrients washed out from the lands. The leaching are more conducive in high acidity drainage water. Ultimately this processes are reducing soil fertility with low soil pH as well. The study aims to determine the effect of different depths of pyritic material and pyrite oxidation on soil chemical properties and oil palm production. Location of soil sampling and observations conducted in the oil palm plantation Business Unit Bentayan and Betung Krawo, PT Perkebunan Nusantara VII (Persero), South Sumatra. Analysis of soil samples carried out at the Laboratory of Department of Soil Science and Land Resources, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University. Observations focused on the depth pyritic material at <30 cm, 30-60 cm, and > 60 cm, and not containing pyritic material. Special observation conducted on soil chemical properties at the soil with and without oxidation. The results show that the content of pyrite at depths <30 cm have a significant effect on increasing soil acidity and exchangeable aluminum content (Al-dd), and reduced levels of N-total nutrients, potassium (K) and production of fresh tube fruits. Oxidation pyrite also gives a tendency of decreased levels of available nutrients phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and base saturation. Pyritic lands which have undergone an oxidation process tended to decrease fertility.
