Soil Cultivation

Processing of soil is the oldest culture in agriculture and still needed in modern agriculture. How the proper soil cultivation for conservation of soil resources? The purpose of land preparation is to prepare the nursery, where farming, create a good root zone, burying crop residues, and eradicate weeds. How tillage greatly affects soil structure that is formed naturally good because the penetration of roots or fauna tauna, if too intensive cultivation of land, the soil structure will be damaged.

Farmers who cultivate the habit of excessive land where the soil is processed to clean the surface is one example of the wrong treatment because these conditions lead to surface sealing of soil particles dispersed by grain rain, clogging the pores of the soil, forming surface crusting. To overcome the bad influence of lawyer-prepared soil, then the recommended number of ways that conservation tillage can reduce erosion. The way the question is:

Without soil (TOT), land to be planted are not processed and plant debris before it left scattered on the surface, which will protect the soil from erosion threat during this very vulnerable, namely when the initial growth of plants. Planting is done by Portugal.Eradicate weeds using herbicides

Minimal soil cultivation, not all cultivated land surface, only row crops are processed and partly plant residues left on soil surface

Good Quality Seeds

Physical characteristics of quality seeds can be studied as follows:

1. The shape, size and color is uniform. Good seed is always the same shape. If a seedis supposed to be round, all round (no flat or oval). That's the good seed. Similarly, if theshape should be flat, then it must also be flat. Size and color should also be uniform.Nothing is bigger or smaller. Nothing strange color, if seed is yellow all have yellow, nowhite.
2. Seed coat surface must be clean and shiny. Nothing dirty or wrinkled. Seeds wrinkledfruit plucked as a sign not old enough.
3.  Water content is low enough and the seeds have experienced periods of rest, but stillhave not experienced for too long storage life until expiry.
4. Not mixed with empty seed and the various impurities, such as land, the remainingskin, grass seed, and so forth.

In addition, the seeds must also be free of germs. It can be known from the parent plants. Parent of sick plants tend to produce seeds and seedlings carrying the disease.

Inorganic soil

Inorganic soil is soil with a high content of mineral elements originating from the parent rock weathering processes in the earth. The process of weathering is due to o / er a variety of things, that is weathering the physical, biological, mechanical, and chemical. In addition, inorganic materials can also be derived from synthetic materials or chemicals made in factories. Some inorganic media are often used as a planting medium that is gel, sand, gravel, broken bricks, sponges, clay, vermiculite, and perlite.

Gel

Gel or hydrogel is a polymer crystals that are often used as hydroponic growing media for plants. Use of this type of media is very practical and efficient because it does not bother to replace it with a new, flush, or nurture. In addition, the planting medium also has variation in color so that election can be tailored to the tastes and colors of plants.Therefore, it would create the beauty and the beauty of ornamental plants are placed in the living room or den.

organic soil

Growth media included in the category of organic matter is generally derived from the components of living organisms, such as parts of plants such as leaves, stems, flowers, fruit, or bark. The use of organic materials as planting media is far superior compared to anorganik.Beberapa kind of organic material that can be used as planting media including charcoal, chopped fern, compost, moss, coconut coir, manure, and humus.

Charcoal

Charcoal can be derived from wood or coconut shells. Coeok planting medium is used for orchid plants in areas with high humidity. This is because charcoal is less able to bind water in the) otal lot. The uniqueness of the media type of charcoal is its buffer (buffer). Thus, if a mistake in the delivery of nutrients contained in manure can be neutralized and adapted.

Stem Pakis

Based on the color, fern stems are divided into 2, the fern bars of black and brown fern stems. From both these species, the black fern stem is more commonly used as mediatanam. Stem fern black fern comes from the old so that more dry. In addition, this fern stem was easily formed into small pieces and was known as the shredded fern.

good soil for growing media

From the chemical and physical structure of a soil memilike differences far enough from the good and bad soil as the planting medium. 

if the chemical into the soil more haranya elemental content, whereas it tended to the physical soil texture and soil structure. 

if the physical properties of the soil is good that the system has a good drainage and aeration, drainage and aeration which is determined by the structure and texture of the soil. 

while the drainage system and aerasinya not good, plant roots will be difficult to develop. for example, is not good drainage such as clay, water will seep consequently difficult to form a puddle, if like that then too bad aeration in the soil, resulting in the roots is difficult to take the air, while the roots need air for growth n development, but it also can lead to rapid root rot, attacked by the disease. What other plants susceptible to soil borne diseases. and consequently if plant growth is what disease?
