Abstract
The increasing number of oil palm plantations from year to year has opened up new land opportunities for the maintenance and provision of grass in the livestock sector. One of the provinces that has a sizeable area of oil palm plantations is the province of South Kalimantan with an area of oil palm plantations reaching 479.30 thousand hectares [2]. The plantations are spread across several districts, one of which is in Satui District, Tanah Bumbu Regency.The oil palm plantation business creates jobs and economically provides a very large amount of foreign exchange. The method used in this research is exploration which will be carried out in two stages, namely 1) determining the sampling location. 2) testing the type of cover crop vegetation, soil samples, and gas samples. Vegetation samples will be identified and analyzed for chemicals as well as estimation of their carrying capacity, Soil samples will be measured for carbon and other minerals. While gas samples taken at several locations in the area will be analyzed for their greenhouse gas content (methane, CO2 and N2O). The purpose of this study is to produce complete data on cover crop vegetation in oil palm plantations and their surroundings as well as data on carbon cycle measurements in the integration area of cattle oil. on grazing land (Grazing) and non-grazing land (Non Grazing).
