Kajian Laju Infiltrasi beberapa Jenis Cairan pada Tanah Inceptisol

Abstract

The liquid infiltration rate is the speed at which liquid affects the infiltration rate of the liquid so that the infiltration rate of the liquid can be slow. In this study, a large infiltration rate of inceptisol soil was studied using pure water liquid, brine liquid, and palm waste liquid. This study used methods of experimental in the field and analysis in the laboratory. The results of the study showed that the infiltration rate from the highest to the lowest was the infiltration rate pure water liquid 0,24 cm/minute, followed by brine liquid of 0,21 cm/minuteand palm waste liquid 0,15 cm/minute. The result of analysis showed soil type inceptisol textured with clay loam texture, average porosity 59,37 %, soil bulkdensity 1,07 g/cm3, soil particle density 2,65 g/cm3, soil moisture content 51,22 %, average soil organic matter 4,16 %, N total 0,13 % and P availale 3,17 ppm, as well as liquid viscosity value, namely pure water liquid 0,86 mPa.s, brine liquid 0,89 mPa.s, and palm waste liquid 0,93 mPa.s.
