Identification of Agricultural Activities and Soil Fertility in the Cultivation Area of Nuabosi Cassava

Charly Mutiara, Yovita Yasintha Bolly

Abstract

The low soil fertility is one of the causes of the reduction in cassava production in the Nuabosi area of Ende Regency. Therefore it is necessary to identify soil fertility and farmer activities on the land. This research used survey system by takes soil samples and farmers from ten fields in five villages, namely Ndetundora I, Ndetundora II, Ndetundora III, Embuteru and Randotonda. Determination of land were used purposive sampling method. Whereas farmer activity data is obtained by interviewing farmers whose land is used as land sampling. Variables observed were physical and chemical soil properties. The results of the analysis of agricultural activities can be described using existing theories. While the analysis results of the physical and chemical properties of the soil can be described using chemical criteria and soil fertility from the Bogor soil research center. The results of interviews and direct observations in the field showed that Nuabosi cassava farmers did not only plant cassava but also used conservative agricultural on their land. The physical properties of the soil analyzed showed that the soil was suitable for cassava plants. Based on soil fertility criteria, these lands have a limiting factor for C-Organic.
