ABSTRACT
Edy Suko Dwi wardoyo, 08.54251.0.0252. Nature Condition Analysis Soil Properties In
The Upper Region Sangatta, East Kutai. Supervised by Muli Edwin and Iin Sumbada
Sulistyorini.
The number of critical land in East Kalimantan continues to grow, including the
Watershed Area (WA). Sangatta watershed is one of the watershed, located in the
administrative region of East Kalimantan Province. Sangata watershed upstream region is
characterized by the characteristics of land use in the form of forest protected areas and
some are part of the Kutai National Park has to function as a water catchment area to
ensure the availability of groundwater and rainwater runoff curb to prevent erosion.
Sengata watershed upstream conditions are initially in the form of forest are cleared as a
result of the activity logging, illegal mining, agriculture and settlement. This had an
impact on the watershed area Sangatta downstream of where the catchment area of a lot
of the switching function. Soil conditions in a watershed is one of the key qualities WA
system. Thus, knowing the condition of soil properties on the upstream Sangatta
indispensable. Soil physical fertility rate determined by direct observation in the field to
produce a description. Soil chemical fertility determined by laboratory testing through
soil sampling and soil composite whole research location. Analysis of the condition of the
soil physical and chemical properties upstream Sangatta conducted at 2 locations of
research that points to the location of the first coordinates N 00 ° 33' 27,9" and E 117 °
28' 02,6"dengan elevation 26 meters above sea level and the location of the second point
is at coordinates N 00 27,9" ° 33' and 117 ° 28' E 02,5" with elevation of 22 meters above
sea level. Taking the location of each point made on potential land with slope ˂25% (15%
and 10%). The physical condition of the soil in the river upstream Sangatta generally
have a thickness / depth horizon varies between study sites, rooting classified as "rough,
many" to "very smooth, a little", has a firm consistency, friable, very friable and loose.
Relatively good soil drainage to slow and a little amount of rock fragments. Texture L
(Loam) / clay up to SIL (Silty Loam) / clay dusty. Relatively blocky structure, very high
porosity, density value lindak 1.22 g / cm³ to 1.41 g / cm³ and permeability as very slow.
Soil chemical conditions in the upstream Sangatta generally have a relatively sour pH,
total N, K and relatively low CEC, base saturation is low to very low, the C-Organic is
low to moderate, Ca, Na and base saturation is low to very low , Mg is classified,
Aluminum saturation is low to high. Soil fertility Sangatta upstream region is relatively
low to very low by limiting factor generally is pH, total N, Ca, K, Na, CEC and Base
Saturation.
