The Potential Swamp Land Development to Support Food Estates Programmes in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia

Abstract: The objective of this study is to analyse the potentials, obstacles and socio-economic condition of swamp land development for food estate programmes in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. The results for qualitative descriptive and quantitative analysis showed there were approximately 33.4 million hectares of swamp land area, 9.5 million of which have the potential for agricultural land, particularly for rice. The rationale of food estate location are a wide area of land availability, with abundant water resources… Show more

“…Therefore, Dadahup swamp area irrigation is abandoned by the government and farmers. However, there is some potential for the area's development, such as wide land availability, flat topography, water sources affected by tide and precipitation, and convenient access [6]. Because of that, it is necessary to rehabilitate the existing irrigation network and water management for development for agricultural use [7].…”

“…This land must be optimally utilized due to low land productivity, cropping intensity and unused idle land (Ritung et al, 2015). Problems in tidal swamp land occur especially in layers of pyrite or sulfidic materials, which when oxidized will  Received for publication January 10, 2023 Accepted after corrections March 11, 2023 cause an acidification process and are toxic to plants (Fahmid et al, 2022). Other constraints of tidal swamps are the low availability of macronutrients such as N, P and K even though the total nutrient amouant is high, especially P. The total P nutrient content in type B tidal soil in Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra, is 106.2 ppm, while the available P is only 13.1 ppm (Sefrila et al, 2021).…”

“…Barito Kuala Regency is the center of rice and citrus agriculture in South Kalimantan, and water levels reaching one meter are estimated to have damaged thousands of hectares of agricultural and horticultural crops [8]. This area is also used as a support area for the Food Estate program and the development of swampland agriculture [9]. This flood disaster resulted in around 18,862 families or 54,199 people affected, with around 9,177 people displaced [10] Flood prone maps and flood inundation maps are one way to identify areas prone to flooding and determine the area inundated due to flooding [11][12][13].…”
