Compatibility of land use with spatial patterns of the Pangkajene Watershed

Abstract

Abstract This research purposed was to investigate land use and identify the suitability of land use with spatial patterns as well as determine the suitability between land use with regional spatial plans in the Pangkajene watershed. Two types of data were collected in the study; primary data in the form of land use data, and secondary data as the spatial plan map. The data obtained were analyzed by interpretation, accuracy test, and overlay to determine the suitability of land use with spatial patterns. The results showed ten classifications of land use. The land use, which compatible with the spatial pattern, was 68.08%, and 31.92% was not. The directions for use are in the form of reforestation on secondary forest land use, grasslands, mixed-land dryland agriculture, and shrubs. Land use management can be applied with reforestation, animal farming, and construction of terraces, both accompanied by ground cover plants and terrace reinforcement in the use of paddy fields.
