This study aims to analyze physical parameters such as infiltration of water into the soil through rooting, water holding capacity and its effect on the temperature and humidity of the land around the plant. The method used survey method and data analysis technique is descriptive analysis, t test, F test (ANOVA). The results showed that the infiltration rate near the sago cluster was higher than outside the cluster at different seasons, the water holding capacity does not differ significantly at different altitudes, soil moisture near the cluster of sago is higher than outside the cluster in different seasons, The soil temperature near the cluster is lower than the temperature outside the cluster. Sago baruk plants have excellent ecological functions and can be recommended to be conserved to ensure sustainable utilization. © Universitatea "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" din Iasi.
