Abstract

Soil fertility is one of the important factors to optimize plant growth and productivity. This study aims to analyze the status of soil fertility through soil physical analysis (texture) soil chemistry (pH H2O and KCl, C-organic, cation exchange capacity, base saturation, P2O5, and K2O) in several land units of Tanjungsari District, Sumedang Regency. The method used to determine sample points is purposive sampling method by considering several land units, namely soil type map, soil parent material map, topography map (slope), land use map, and rainfall data. Soil fertility status is determined by the matching table method between the results of soil chemical analysis with soil fertility status index that refers to the Soil Research Center (PPT) 1995. The results of the matching table data analysis showed that the research area almost entirely included low fertility status criteria except for the pine forest land unit on a moderately steep slope including medium fertility status criteria. The factors of base saturation, k-potential (K2O), and C-organic are the limiting factors of soil fertility status in the Tanjungsari District of Sumedang Regency, including the low to medium category.
