| Summary: | Water quality is important for oil palm plantation. It is because water quality have component such as water salinity and water pH in water structures. The water salinity and water pH is important for plantation to give the yield. Because when the plant are up take good water quality give the good feedback from plant. The study was conducted to compare the average the mean of water pH, water salinity (Nacl) and total dissolved solids (TDS). The area of study is Kampung Seri Mendapat area and Merlimau area. The crop focus is oil plant plantation (elaeis guineensis). The data are collected at the evening thursday every week, the have 10 sample water are collected every week. The sample are collected at same point every week and have 4 replication. The data collected 5 sample from Kampung Seri Mendapat area and other 5 sample Merlimau area. The materials used is the cyber scan PCD 650 is measures pH, ORP, Ion, Conductivity, Total Dissolved Solids .Salinity .Resistivity ,Dissolved Oxygen. Temperature. Our top of the line waterproof handheld that enables concurrent measurement of pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen and temperature, all at the same time. The average mean of water pH for Kampung Seri Mendapat area is 3.45 pH and Merlimau is 3.86 pH. The level of pH for the both area is acidity level. For average water, salinity is Kampung Seri Mendapat area is 438.94 ppm and Merlimau is 354.97 ppm. For the Merlimau water, salinity level is low-level salinity and Seri Mendapat is moderately salinity level. Total Dissolved Solids mean is Kampung Seri Mendapat area is 442.20 ppm and Merlimau is 358.24 ppm. For TDS Seri Mendapat is good condition and the excellent condition for Merlimau area. |
