Implementasi Evaluasi Lahan untuk Pengembangan Komoditas Tanaman berdasarkan Kesesuaian Agroklimat

Abstract

<em>Research</em><em> activity is a form of expert service by the Research Group (RG) of "Agricultural Development Based on Local Soil-Land Characteristics" to its partner of the Wonoagung Wonogiri Organic Agriculture Association (Perkumpulan Pertanian Organik Wonoagung Wonogiri,</em> <em>PPOWW). </em><em>The provision of suitable land for plant growth by partner is a required aspect in the development of certain commodities. Expert services by the RG is involving the implementation of land suitability evaluation based on agroclimatic conditions. The objective of the activity is to provide data and information on land suitability levels for certain commodities based on climatic conditions. The area which became the object of this research activity is where the PPOWW partner is located; namely Sidoharjo Sub-district, Wonogiri Regency. The secondary data was obtained from relevant sources in the form of annual rainfall (mm year<sup>-1</sup>), annual average air temperature (°C) and annual average humidity (%). The method of agroclimate suitability evaluation was carried out by following the procedure from Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), by matching climatic conditions with plant growth requirements. Plant commodities that were evaluated for their suitability were durian, salak, mangosteen, apples and avocado. The results showed that durian is a suitable commodity (S1) with climatic conditions in Sidoharjo Sub-district. Salak and avocado are quite suitable commodities (S2). Meanwhile, mangosteen is a commodity which is moderately suitable (S3); whereas apple is a commodity that is not suitable (N). Durian, salak and avocado are commodities which have the potential to be developed by PPOWW in Sidoharjo Sub-district. The next stage of the evaluation implementation requires data and information on the suitability of soil conditions.</em>

The Strategy of Soybean Development on Dryland Agroecosystem in Gunungkidul Regency, D.I. Yogyakarta, Indonesia

“…Soybean development can be carried out according to this cropping pattern without considering other commodities such as rice and corn. Soybeans can be planted in the first, second and third growing seasons, developing cropping patterns according to agroclimatic conditions (Mujiyo et al, 2020). However, soybean development can be carried out on dryland during the dry season with additional irrigation water from irrigation of deep, medium or shallow wells and river dam irrigation.…”

Potensi Pengembangan Tanaman Obat Di Wilayah Aglomerasi Solo Raya

“…Kondisi iklim yang tidak sesuai dapat mempengaruhi kualitas dan kuantitas hasil pertanian, pertumbuhan penyakit perusak tanaman, mempengaruhi masa pembungaan sehingga juga berpengaruh pada lamanya waktu panen. Selain itu kondisi iklim seperti suhu terlalu tinggi atau rendah juga akan mempengaruhi pertumbuhan tanaman (Mujiyo et al, 2020). Penurunan kuantitas hasil di wilayah penelitian dan wilayah acuan akan berpengaruh terhadap nilai LQ.…”
