Abstract

This study's primary focus is on the interaction between soil properties and fruit Phaleria macrocarpa (Mahkota Dewa) in UMK-TRaCe, Pulau Banding, Perak.This study aims to determine the relationship between soil nutrients and the characteristics of god’s crown fruit, with particular emphasis on ascorbic acid content, soil pH, nutrient availability, and soil features. The research process includes data analysis, fruit and soil examination, and result presentation. The titration method was used to ascertain the fruit's ascorbic acidcontent, and the gravimetric method was employed to examine the organic matter in the soil. Significant changes in the amounts of organic matter in the soil across the study groups were also shown by the ANOVA results, along with statistically significant differences in the means of ascorbic acid levels between the groups. Ascorbic acid levels in fruit and soil organic matter, however, did not show a significant correlation according to a correlation analysis done with minitab software..In order to improve the study, this proposal makes recommendations for further research, including determining the relationship between specific tree fruits and soil nutrients, determining nitrogen levels, and testing nitrogen on fruit and leaves in order to learn more about the growth and development of plant. By offering a comprehensive plan to investigate the relationship between soil and fruit qualities of god’s crown plants, this study proposal highlights the significance of soil features and fruit quality for agricultural operations and conservation initiatives.
