Abstract

Soil characteristics are a crucial matter in relation torice production in a swampland area. A study on chemical soil characteristics and economics of swampland rice production was carried out at a subdistrict of Rambutan and Banyuasin 1, Banyuasin, South Sumatera. Evaluation of soil organic matter in both locations foundcarbon content in Rambutan and Banyuasinto bemedium to high and medium to very high, respectively. In respect to nitrogen content, Rambutan had very low to medium, while Banyuasin 1 fell into the low to medium categories. Based on the average C/N ratio, both locations were considered to have a high accumulation of organic matter in the soil. In regard to macronutrient content, especially P and K, Rambutan and Banyuasin 1 fell into the low to medium category for P and low for K. Cost analysis of swampland rice production in both locations revealed the production processto be economically feasible. Linear regression analysis among pertinent factors in production improvement presented the positive impacts on rice productivity to be derived from Amount of planted seeds, phosphate fertilizer, return of straw to soil/organic matter and knowledge of the recommended fertilizer dosage.
