Revitalization of Agricultural in Flat Land Through Humic Acid and Irrigation in Kampong Cibeureum, Sukanagalih, Cianjur, West Java
Farmers in kampong Cibeureum, Sukanagalih village, generally use excessive amounts of fertilizers and pesticides to increase yield horticultural production. In addition, farmers also face water shortages during extreme dry seasons caused by climate change. Therefore, research is needed to address these issues. The purpose of this study is to find solutions to reduce fertilizer use and overcome water problems. The study was conducted on 5900 m2 of flat land agriculture managed by three farmers. The research method involved interviews, observations, and experiment by comparation before and after applying humic acid (HA) and irrigation system from pond. The results of the research indicate application of HA and irrigation system from the pond is effective in improving crop quality and increasing yields by up to 38.38%. Create production of organic fertilizer mixed by HA is prospectively can reduce fertilizer purchase costs. Ensuring sufficient water for agriculture can be achieved by constructing pond and piping equipment The availability of pond can be utilized for freshwater fish farming and contributes to reduced organic fertilizer.
