Analisis Cadangan Karbon Permukan Lahan Gambut Pada Perkebunan Kelapa Sawit Pt. X Di Kepenghuluan Siarangarang
Increasing the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere is a serious environmental problem because it causes global warming. To minimize the impact of climate change, efforts are needed to stabilize the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. One of the efforts to reduce CO2 gas is the presence of trees or plants that absorb carbon. Oil palm is an annual plant that has a long life cycle, during its life cycle it absorbs CO2 for photosynthesis. The ability of oil palm to absorb CO2 on a net basis is even better than tropical natural forests. This study aims to determine the carbon stock stored in oil palm at planting age of 3, 5 and 7 years on peat land at PT. Tungal Mitra Manggala I Plantation, Siarangarang District. The method of measuring the carbon content of oil palm biomass uses a non-destructive method with allometric equations for oil palm plantations and destructive for undergrowth, while on peat soil using volumetric methods and dry ashing. The results showed that the largest carbon content stored in oil palm plants was at the age of 7 years, namely 36.01 tons/Ha, and at the planting age of 3 years and 5 years, namely 0.79 and 2.08 tons/Ha, respectively. And in understorey, the largest stored biomass carbon was at the age of 7 years, namely 2.85 tons/Ha and the highest carbon stock was stored in peat soil at the planting age of 3 years, namely 12095.88 tons/Ha. Meanwhile, in peat soil, the largest carbon content in 3-year planting land is 12,095.88 tons/ha. The carbon content stored in oil palm is influenced by the age of the plant, as well as the growth and development of the plant.
Keywords: carbon stock, oil palm, peat soil.
