Soil fertility is a piece of important information in managing rice fields to increase rice production.

The method used was descriptive exploration surveys with soil samples taken deliberately. Laboratory test results showed that soil pH is classified as acidic, N-total is medium, P-available is low, K-available is very high, cation exchange capacity is high, and C-organic is high. Fertility status is low (96.9 ha), moderate (194.6 ha), and high (160.3 ha). Management direction in improving fertility and nutrient deficiency is by fertilizing and water-logging.
