Survei Hydrochemical Air Tanah Dangkal Dan Sifat Karakteristik Tanah Dilahan Pertanian Palawija Di Marpoyan Damai
Maharatu Village, Marpoyan Damai District in Pekanbaru City is known for its secondary
crops agricultural activities. These activities can cause groundwater pollution or
contamination due to excessive use of fertilizers. This study was aimed to determine the
water qualities in surrounding area of Maharatu Village. The parameters measured were pH,
COD, BOD and TDS value, Coli bacteria content, turbidity, Fe, Mn, and Pb contents. The
study was also aimed to determine soil characteristics based on porosity and permeability.
Water and soil samples were collected from Jalan Kartama, Maharatu Village, Marpoyan
Damai District, Pekanbaru City. Water samples were taken from one source and soil samples
were taken from five observation points representing agricultural soil (depth of 10 cm).
Analysis of the water qualities and soil characteristics were descriptive analytic, while the
relation of porosity and permeability characteristics were analyzed by correlation analysis.
The results showed that the water qualities for all parameters were in accordance of
government regulation by Menteri Kesehatan No.82 Tahun 2001 except for the pH parameter
which was acidic. Soil characteristics showed that the highest porosity value is 38.26% and
the lowest porosity value is 22.0%, while the maximum soil permeability value is 9.93
cm/hour and the minimum soil permeability is 1.22 cm/hour.
