Soil degradation and nutrient balance  are important for ecological nutrient management in sustainable agriculture. Soil degradation in term of soil erosion is the single most important environmental concern in the developing countries. Eroded sediment also acts as both a physical and chemical pollutant. It has been become an ecological, social and economic problem. Loss of nutrient by erosion from agricultural areas in a sloping land is one of the major causes of land degradation in Indonesia, yet the process by which the nutrient is depleted has often not been answered by appropriate study. To relate soil degradation to nutrient balance becomes important tool for monitoring sustainable agriculture.

 

Key words: soil degradation, nutrient balance, sustainable agriculture, ecological nutrient management, sustainability indicator

Abstracts

 

 

Sustainable agriculture is the continuous production of food and fibre into the future while conserving the health of natural resources on and off the farm. It is important to find indicator as a tool to monitoring sustainability. There are two main methods of budgeting the nutrients balance of regional and national agricultural systems: soil-surface and farm-gate. The purpose of the paper is to discuse the importance of nitrogen balance as an indicator of agricultural sustainability and to propose the methods expalined by Viet-Ngu and Aluddin  (2009) as an alternative way to solve the defference of the two main methods.

 

Key words: Sustainable agriculture, nitrogen balance, farm gate balance, soil surface balance.
