Abstract

Temporary effects on soil quality following burning by shifting cultivators in South Sumatra were studied. Following burning organic C available phosphorus potassium sodium and Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) increased while pH total nitrogen calcium total bases and base saturation decreased. The increase of such bases may be attributed to increase of ash in the soil following burning. The increase in soil fertility is temporary
