Lahan gambut merupakan lahan yang berasal dari bentukan gambut serta vegetasi yang ada di atasnya dengan wilayah yang bertopografi rendah, dan mempunyai curah hujan yang tinggi (Resdati et al., 2021). Lahan gambut merupakan bentangan lahan yang berasal dari dekomposisi tidak sempurna yang dihasilkan oleh vegetasi pepohonan yang tergenang air sehingga bersifat anaerob. Material tersebut menumpuk dalam waktu yang lama sehingga membentuk lapisan-lapisan (Lesmana, 2022). Lahan gambut juga mempunyai pelbagai kendala seperti pH yang sangat rendah, dan kandungan ketersediaan hara yang juga sangat rendah (Pratiwi et al., 2020). Book chapter “Geografi Ekonomi: Penelitian Lingkungan Lahan Basah'' telah disusun dan dikembangkan sebagai buku pegangan untuk membantu mahasiswa dan dosen dalam mata kuliah Geografi Ekonomi, Lingkungan Lahan Basah. Buku ini mengajak pembaca untuk mengeksplorasi proses-proses yang menentukan pola spasial aktivitas ekonomi lahan basah pada skala global, nasional, regional, dan regional

Di tempat yang membaca teks Arab adalah satu-satunya cara untuk mengakses pelajaran pokok, kebanyakan hanya mengerti nahw dan sharf dari pelajaran Bahasa...
