Kesesuaian Lahan Tanaman Ubi Jalar (Ipomoea batatas) dan Ubi Kayu (Manihot esculenta) di Daerah Pesisir Pantai Utara Manokwari

Land suitability is the ability of a land for certain uses. The purpose this study was to soil salinity and potential cultivation food crops (cassava sweet potato) from two different locations in Yoom II Village, North Manokwari District. research method used observation with survey techniques. Parameters observed were physical properties (texture, structure, color, surface rock, effective depth, water content) chemical (soil pH salinity). results evaluation cassava plants at locations, namely close coast (DP) far (JP) generally had an actual class S3 or marginally appropriate. main limiting factors growth potato are rock as well pH. Meanwhile, not factor because electrical conductivity less than 2 dSm-1. Improvement efforts that can be made increase quite suitable (S2) by cleaning adding organic matter reduce
