Physical Potentials and Constraints of Tidal Peat Swamps for Agriculture (Case Study of Rasau Jaya District, West Kalimantan Province, Indonesia)

Tidal swamps which are widespread in lowland areas have the potential to be used for agricultural activities. The amount of rain potential available in this type of land can be used to supply water for irrigation purposes so that plants grow optimally. However, the tidal potential especially on the peat swamps area may have a negative impact, namely the occurrence of nutrient leaching from the soil, which is harmful to plants. Rasau Jaya, a tidal lowland area with peat swamp soil characteristic, is an area allocated for rice and corn cultivation. The study was conducted with the aim to determine the physical potential and constraints of land and water management in Rasau Jaya for the cultivation of both types of plants. This research was conducted through field observations and measurements as well as laboratory tests and model scale to evaluate the characteristics of existing land quality based on Land Suitability Classification by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The result of this study shows that characteristics of water availability in Rasau Jaya is classified as Class S1 Highly Suitable for rice and corn crops, while existing conditions of land in Rasau Jaya III are generally classified in the S2 class Moderately Suitable for rice and corn crops. Appropriate land management is needed to increase land productivity for the cultivation of the Rasau Jaya’s assigned priority crops.

The Competitiveness Analysis of Corn Farming on Peatland

Agricultural sector, especially the corn commodity, has a very rapid development, especially in Kubu Raya Regency. The product that said to be able to compete the market if it has the ability to be competitive. Products that have high competitiveness were reflected in the price and good quality. But if product was not able to compete, it will bring new problems. Therefore, it was necessary to do some analysis, such as the analysis of the farming profitability and analysis of the competitiveness corn farming in peatland in Kubu Raya Regency. The purpose of this research was to analyze profitability, competitiveness, comparative and competitive advantage of corn farming on peatlands in Kubu Raya Regency. The technique that used was the survey method. The research location was conducted in Sungai Raya and Rasau Jaya Sub-districts. The reason was because it was the area that the largest main center of the corn production in the Kubu Raya Regency. The tool for analyzing used PAM. The result of the research analysis was for financial benefits and economic benefits, corn commodities that developed in peatland areas were feasible both financially and economically. This can be proven in financial terms that obtained by farmers of 15,264,746 Rupiah ha/year and from economic benefits of 9,867,664 Rupiah on 1 hectare/year land. The results of the competitiveness analysis showed that corn farming had comparative and competitive advantages. This can be found from DRCR and PCR values that were less than one. The government, in this case, provided assistance to farmers, in the form of subsidies for fertilizer, subsidized credit interest rates, and also provided positive incentives to farmers. The policy was very helpful for farmers to increase production.

Farmers' Perception and Engagement with the Role of Middlemen: A Case Study of the Vegetable Farmers

The role of middlemen in rural areas is often controversial, particularly because of the positive or negative roles they play in the farmer livelihood. This study aims to understand the farmers' perception of the role of middlemen in facilitating their farming system and to find out the socioeconomic factors that determine to what degree farmers attach themselves to middlemen. To get this information, we conducted a case study survey of 92 respondents from the subdistrict of Rasau Jaya, Kubu Raya, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Approximately 95% of the farmers had a positive perception of the role of the middlemen, which was considered important in the farm produce marketing and also the transportation of both fertilizer and crops. Older farmers, farmers with a higher education level, and farmers with more vegetable commodities were less attached to the middleman in the marketing of their agricultural products. These farmers often changed the middleman to get a higher price. Conversely, farmers producing sweet maize and farmers with a higher income level were more attached to a middleman. A high level of engagement with a middleman is one of the farmer strategies to avoid marketing risks.

SEJARAH PENEMPATAN DAN ADAPTASI LINGKUNGAN BARU TRANSMIGRAN JAWA BARAT DI KECAMATAN RASAU JAYA

The unequal distribution of the population in Indonesia is caused by the concentration of the population of Java, which led the government to create a population movement program called transmigration. The types of transmigration carried out by the Indonesian government are general transmigration and self-employment transmigration. West Borneo, which is the destination for transmigration, is Rasau Jaya District, Kubu Raya Regency. Of the six villages in the Rasau Jaya sub-district, there are only four villages that are the placement areas for transmigrants, namely Rasau Jaya Satu Village, Rasau Jaya Dua Village, Rasau Jaya Tiga Village and Bintang Mas Village. Rasau Jaya Tiga Village in 1975-1977 became the most transmigration destination area because it had the largest land area among other villages. The method used is descriptive with a qualitative approach and the object under study is the transmigrant who came from West Java.

To increase farmers’ knowledge in peatland management, it is necessary for intervention through extension by encouraging and involving institutions related to peatland management, such as community assistance organizations, agencies such as office of the agriculture, cooperative, small and medium enterprises, and trade and industry, and other institutions.

Effect of P fertilizer formula to the growth and yield of sweet corn on peatland

Indonesia has 14.93 million ha of peat lands spread across Sumatra, Kalimantan and Papua. Peatlands productivity is very low due to its characteristics that do not support optimal plant growth. The research objective was to assess the effect of P fertilizer application on peat lands to sweet corn yield and determine the dosage. This research has been carried out on drained peat lands in Rasau Jaya, Kubu Raya Regency in West Kalimantan. The research used a randomized complete block design with nine treatments namely Control, NK, NPK, NPK+Mg, ¾ NK+700 kg P fertilizer ha−1 and four rates of P fertilizer were 350, 700, 1,050 and 1,400 kg ha−1. The results showed that the P fertilizer application has significantly affect plant growth, ear length, ear diameter, biomass and yield of fresh sweet corn ear. The application of NK+700 kg P fertilizer ha−1 produced higher biomass by 77% and 47% compared to NPK+Mg treatment and NK treatment respectively. The application of 700 kg P fertilizer ha−1 also significantly increased fresh ears by 51% and 43% compared to NPK+Mg treatment and NK treatment respectively. The optimum rate of P fertilizer for sweet corn on peat lands is 670 to 890 kg ha−1.

Utilization of organic fertilizer in response to mitigate CO2 emission

Food security and sovereignty are strategic policy agenda of national security. Accelerating the growth of sustainable food production and improving the welfare of farmers through optimization of land resources are the priority. One way to increase food production and enhance soil quality is through the utilization of organic fertilizers such as livestock waste. In addition, it is expected to reduce CO2 emissions rather than leaving manure untreated. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of solid manure and biourine application on increasing maize production and mitigate CO2 emission. This study was conducted in Inceptisols Rasau Jaya II, West Kalimantan. A randomized complete block design trial was established from plots fertilized with solid organic fertilizer (PO), biourine (BIO), solid organic fertilizer+biourine (PO+BIO), and control, with five replications. Parameters observed in this study were CO2 flux and agronomic performance of maize. CO2 emission was measured using the static chamber method, placing chambers on the surface of the soil and taking measurements using an infrared gas analyzer for 125 days. CO2 fluxes ranged from 59.93 to 106.07 Mg ha-1 yr-1 and there was no significant difference among the organic fertilizer treatments; nevertheless, the lowest CO2 flux was illustrated in PO+BIO. Maize productivity was influenced by the organic fertilizer and PO+BIO had the greatest maize yield.

Diversity Of Soil Macrofauna On Several Land Use On Peatlands

Peatlands are very vulnerable to land use change. Some of the current peatland cover conditions include agricultural cultivation lands, plantations, shrubs and secondary forest. The presence of soil macrofauna as a soil ecosystem engineer can be a bio-indicator of peatland fertility. This study aims to analyze the diversity of soil macrofauna in several patterns of peat land use in cultivated areas. The research was conducted in December 2017 in Rasau Jaya District, Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan Province. The research method used is monolithic technique with descriptive data analysis using the alpha and beta diversity index approach. The results showed that the diversity and diversity of macrofauna species on peatlands were classified as medium and low, with the highest diversity found in secondary forest patterns (H '= 2.09) and the lowest in oil palm plantations (H' = 0.73), while species richness was found. The highest was found in secondary forest (R '= 4.01) and the lowest was in oil palm plantations (R' = 1.42). The highest population density and abundance were the order Isoptera and Opisthopora, while the lowest is Dermaptera. Several groups of macrofauna which are used as bioindicators of land fertility are found in all land use patterns with the dominan order is Isoptera and Opisthopora. Soil temperature and acidity conditions affect soil macrofauna population density. The presence of diverse vegetation and adequate canopy can affect environmental conditions and the diversity of soil macrofauna. Based on the diversity of soil macrofauna, cultivation with an agroforestry pattern is preferable to peatlands.
