    Alterations of Soil Physical Properties Due to Mechanization Activities Under Oil Palm on Bernam Series Soil

    Machinery introduced and adopted in oil palm plantations could enhance workers’ productivity. However, there is a growing concern about the potential for soil degradation resulting from mechanization activities. Hence, this study was carried out to evaluate the alterations of soil physical properties under oil palm caused by different trailer weights and monthly transportation frequency. The combination effect of heavier trailer weight and higher transportation frequency resulted in greater damage to the soil. The treatments implemented at the study site had increased the soil bulk density (SBD) and reduced soil total porosity (STP). The compacting effect seemed to be more pronounced only at the surface layer of the harvesting path, where the visible symptom of soil structure destruction was observed as rutting. Considerable changes in pore volume and pore-size distribution were also related to soil compaction, the larger pores collapsed and resulted in production of smaller pores during compression. The soil available water (SAW) content was significantly increased, however soil hydraulic conductivity and infiltration rate measured in the field decreased with increasing trailer weights. This study has shown that the physical properties of Bernam Series soil (Typic Endoaquepts) had been significantly altered due to the treatments applied
