Following the release of Presidential Degree No 1/2016, a peat restoration pilot project has been carried out in Banjarbaru District, South Kalimantan in addition to other two pilot projects in other provinces of Indonesia. The pilot project has been designed to implement the three aspects of peat restoration, namely rewetting, revegetation and revitalization of society. Implementation of revegetation is mainly through applying agroforestry by inserting agricultural crops in between wood tree. The objective of present study was to elucidate the suitability of agricultural crops in area of reforestation of degraded peat in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. The suitability of agricultural crops was studied by collecting rainfall and air temperature data from the climatic station of Syamsudin Noor Airport in Banjarbaru, while the nutrient retentions data were measured by laboratory analyses. Peat depth and drainage class were determined by direct field observation, while peat decomposition level was classified by quantitative method in the field. All collected date were then used to assess the land suitability class for dry land paddy (Oriza sativa L), long bean (Vigna sinensis ENDL), cucumber (Cucumis sativus LINN), mustard (Brassica rugose FRAIN), orange (Citrus sp), petai (Parkia speciose HASSK), rubber (Hevea brassialiansis M.A), and coconut (Cocus nocifera L). The productivity data of long bean, cucumber and mustard were obtained by farmer interview. The results showed that most of the agricultural crops were classified as marginally suitable (class S3).The main limiting factors of agricultural development in this area are low soil pH, low base saturation and low phosphorus content. Low level of peat decomposition limits the development of some crops. The above mentioned limiting factors ought to contribute to the low crop productivities in the area. Less limiting factor is encountered by coconut palm and rubber, indicating that these crops are potentially grown along with wood tree.
