Mycorrhizae and a soil ameliorant on improving the characteristics of sandy soil

Abstract: <p>Agricultural constraints on sandy soil are poor chemical characteristics and low biological activity resulting in the soil becoming less productive to be planted. One of the efforts to improve the quality of sandy soil are application of mycorrhizae and a soil ameliorant. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of mycorrhizae and a soil ameliorant on soil chemical characteristics and soil biological activity. The experiment was arranged using a Complete Randomized Design that had two fac… Show more

“…Soil organic C was significantly positively correlated with cation exchange capacity. These results are in accordance with the research of Herawati et al [36] which states that an increase in soil organic C will be followed by an increase in CEC. The high soil organic matter increases the absorption of nutrients due to the value of CEC [37].…”

“…Chemical reactions in soil are very complex. Many exchanges of cations and anions process occur in the soil lattice (Herawati et al, 2021). Therefore, improving soil fertility takes quite a long time (Dewi et al, 2022).…”

“…Due to its affinity for P, mycorrhizal hyphae exchange organic acids to break down P, which plants cannot use. These organic acids are found in dead mycorrhizal hyphae (Herawati et al, 2021), which provide organic-C to the soil and help create soil aggregates. The chemical is glomalin (He et al, 2020).…”

“…As a result, plants growing well produce high biomass to absorb large amounts of carbon [33]. The more fertile the soil is, the greater the biomass growth of a plant, so the more significant the carbon stored [34]. The absorption of CO2 by plants through the photosynthesis process is directly proportional to the increase in plant biomass [35,36], which in turn, an increase in soil fertility conditions can result in increased carbon storage on land.…”
