“…These results support what other studies have found: soil depth is negatively related to permeability values (A. Ozcoban and Acar, 2018). The soil permeability value at post-tillage is lower than pre-tillage (Fig.…”

“…If plant growth in one hectare of land is like in plot P5, then production can only reach 22.42 tons ha -1 , a decrease of 67.97% and production based on growth in plot P7 is 49.11 tons ha -1 , a decrease of 29.84% from sugarcane production which should be 70-75 tons ha -1 (BPS Indonesia, 2018). Low plant productivity is triggered by water stress, which greatly affects the germination phase, early growth and ripening phase (Sanghera et al, 2019) due to shallow soil and low permeability (S. Ozcoban and Acar, 2018). Lack of water supply during the dry season and excess water during the rainy season due to poor drainage causes plant shoots to die (Misra et al, 2020).…”

Land expansion to meet productivity is often carried out without further consideration or study of the condition of the land. Insuffi cient soil quality leads to a decline in plant productivity. This research examines the soil conditions on sugar cane plantations in Takalar, Indonesia. We partitioned a single hectare of land into nine distinct observation plots to assess and compare the homogeneity of soil conditions and plant growth within each plot. In this study, we measured the organic carbon and the physical properties of the soil (bulk density and soil permeability), which are the main characteristics that refl ect soil conditions in an area. Plant growth parameters such as the number of sugarcane tillers, height, and diameter were measured to compare growth in each plant plot. The research fi ndings indicated that low organic C content values signifi ed a lack of nutrient availability in the soil due to low soil permeability, resulting in a 50% reduction in production. These fi ndings validated the shallow and marginal soil conditions. While soil processing demonstrated a capacity to decrease bulk density at depths of 15-30 cm, it proved ineffective in enhancing soil permeability. Post-tillage, the soil permeability rate at 0-15 and 15-30 cm depths declined, leading to compromised plant growth. Sugarcane plants in Takalar exhibited below-average growth with insuffi cient plant height (below 200 cm), stem diameter (less than 3 cm), and a low stem count per meter at the initial growth stage. Low organic C content values indicated a lack of nutrient availability in the soil due to low soil permeability, resulting in a 50% reduction in production. This research can be a reference for further research regarding improving soil quality and plant productivity.

“…The potential of 􀅫ibres to lengthen the lifespan of the stretched subgrades was thoroughly studied by many studies [23,24,25,26]. Plastic waste polypropylene 􀅫ibre has been successfully used as reinforcement [27,28,29,30]. When reinforced with polypropylene 􀅫ibres, expansive subgrades stabilized with silica fume had much better engineering qualities under freeze-thaw cycles [31].…”

Following thorough soil investigation, the designs for the foundations and other structures are made. The foundations and structures are more reliable and safer when the right soil is used. In this study, cement-coated Polypropylene (PP) sheets were employed to strengthen the soil, enhancing its shear strength and other characteristics. Two (2) soil samples were taken to compare the average outcomes and minimize error. Before using PP sheets for soil reinforcement, various index and strength parameters, such as breaking tensile strength, elastic modulus, and breaking and fusion points, among others, were examined. Properties like liquid and plastic limit, speci􀅮ic gravity, Maximum Dry Density (MDD), and Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) were examined as discussed. Reinforcement of 0%, 0.05%, 0.15%, and 0.25% were applied and tested against shear strength evaluation with the help of a direct shear test. An increase in strength is observed in soil samples 1 and 2, i.e., 1.27, 2.25, 2.27 and 1.28, 1.42, 1.65, and 1.79 in kg/cm 2 , respectively. Similarly, uncon􀅮ined compression strength was observed to increase from 0.0692 MPA to 0.0942 MPA, which is 11.68% and 35.94% increment in soil samples 1 and 2 at 0% and 0.05% reinforcement, respectively.
