Abstract

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a significant agricultural commodity in tropical regions, particularly Indonesia. The increasing demand for palm oil has prompted the expansion of agricultural land, including the utilization of marginal lands such as Dystrudepts soil, typically characterized by low fertility and a deficiency in phosphate, a critical nutrient for plant growth. One potential solution to address these limitations is the application of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF), which have been shown to enhance water availability, improve fertilizer efficiency, facilitate nutrient absorption, and increase the populations of soil microorganisms. This study aims to evaluate the alterations in the chemical properties of Dystrudepts soil following the application of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi. The research was conducted in Petapahan Village, Tapung District. The experimental treatments comprised four levels of AMF application: a control group without AMF and three treatment groups receiving AMF at doses of 150 g/plant, 300 g/plant, and 450 g/plant. Each treatment was replicated five times, resulting in 20 experimental units containing one plant. The study employed a non-factorial RAL methodology. Data were subjected to analysis of variance, followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% significance level. The findings indicated that the application of AMF significantly affected the soil's pH, organic carbon content (C-Organic), available phosphorus (P-available), and cation exchange capacity (CEC). Notably, a dose of 300 g per plant emerged as the most effective in enhancing the chemical properties of the soil associated with oil palm cultivation.
