Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence and relationship between slope slope and soil physical properties on oil palm land in Sosopan, Ulu Barumun, and Barumun Districts, Padang Lawas Regency. The method used was a survey with purposive sampling on three slope classes: sloping (0–15%), steep (16–30%), and very steep (31–45%). The parameters observed included soil texture, pH, C-organic, as well as macronutrients (N, P, K). These findings confirm that slope slope is complexly related to soil properties and plays a role in determining oil palm land conservation strategies.
