Oil Palm Plantation, Fish Species, Water, and SoilAbstract
Oil palm plantations in Muaro Jambi, Jambi Province are generally established near water bodies or rivers, often less than 60–100 meters from the river The research employed both survey and experimental methods in the laboratory. Observations included fish biodiversity and the following parameters:Water quality: nitrate, phosphate, BOD, COD, pH, and TDS. Soil quality: nitrate, phosphate, organic carbon (C-organic), and pH.The fish species identified in the study area were: Channa striata (snakehead), Channa micropeltes (giant snakehead), Cryptopterus sp. (silurid catfish), Rasbora sp. (small cyprinids such as red-tail rasbora and slender rasbora), Anabas testudineus (climbing perch), Rasbora reticulata (reticulated rasbora), Helostoma temminckii (kissing gourami), Clarias teijsmanni (catfish), Osphronemus goramy (giant gourami), Puntius hexazona (six-banded barb), Hemibagrus nemurus (baung catfish), and Wallago attu (tapah catfish). The measured water quality parameters were as follows: nitrate 0.2291%, phosphate 81.8642 ppm, BOD 25.280 mg/L, COD 1601.300 mg/L, pH 7.04, and TDS 12.8 ppm. The soil quality parameters obtained were nitrate 0.18070%, phosphate 0.07440 ppm, organic carbon 0.38865%, and pH 5.9–6.2
