GIS based: mapping of Multy Purpose Tree Species (Durio zibethinus) in Perkebunan Tambunan Village, Langkat District, North Sumatera Province, Indonesia

Abstract

Durio zibethinus (durian) in Indonesia is known as one of the types of Multy Purpose Tree Species (MPTS). Durian is a Malvaceae family. It grows naturally as well as is planted on community agroforestry land in Langkat Regency, North Sumatra. This study aimed to map the distribution of land suitability of Durio zibethinus using Geographic Information System (GIS) in Perkebunan Tambuan Village, Salapian Sub district, Langkat District. This study was conducted from February 2019 to July 2019 at the USU Experimental plantation, Perkebunan Tambunan Village, Salapian Sub district, Soil physical and chemical properties analysis were conducted in Central Laboratory and Soil Biology Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU). The evaluation of land suitability distribution using GIS was conducted in Laboratory of Forest Inventory, Faculty of Forestry, USU. The land suitability of Durio zibethinus in Perkebunan Tambunan Village was marginally suitable for all land units (Land Unit 1, 2 and 3).

Identification of Land Cover Types and Their Changes in Kutalimbaru Sub-district, Deli Serdang District, North Sumatra, Indonesia

“…Figure 1 showed the analyzed land cover changes in Kultalimbaru Sub-district by overlaying the 2009 and 2019 land cover maps using GIS. The GIS applications have been carried out in several studies in several areas [12][13][14][15][16]. 2 showed that the difference in land cover changes occurring in mixed gardens decreased by 2,962.19 ha, then oil palm plantation increased by 1,587.12 ha, and open land increased by 935.87 ha.…”

Inter Simple Sequence Repeat molecular markers to reveal the genetic diversity of superior durian of Gunungpati, Semarang, Indonesia

“…Despite the number of accessions added, the constant value of genetic diversity indicates that the plant germplasm is genotypically uniform. Indonesia has various sources of germplasm of fruit plants with high genetic diversity (Retnoningsih et al 2011;Retnoningsih et al 2014;Rahmawaty et al 2019;Fitmawati et al 2020;Sembiring et al 2020;Suwardi et al 2020;Tolangara et al 2020). The results showed that durian genetic diversity was high even though the study was limited to the Gunungpati area; 16 durian varieties showed different genotypes in D. zibethinus.…”
