Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of land use and infrastructure on economic growth in the Province of East Nusa Tenggara. Land use and infrastructure are important factors in regional development because they support economic activities, increase productivity, and facilitate the distribution of goods and services. However, the archipelagic geographical characteristics of East Nusa Tenggara and the existing limitations in infrastructure are presumed to affect the effectiveness of these factors in promoting economic growth. This research employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive-associative method. The study utilized secondary data covering the period 2015–2024 obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) of East Nusa Tenggara Province and was supported by primary data collected through interviews with relevant institutions. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to examine the influence of land use and infrastructure on economic growth. The results indicate that land use has a regression coefficient of 0.231 with a significance value of 0.617 (> 0.05), meaning that it does not have a significant effect on economic growth. Infrastructure has a regression coefficient of -0.150 with a significance value of 0.144 (> 0.05), indicating that it also does not significantly affect economic growth. Simultaneously, land use and infrastructure do not have a significant effect on economic growth, as shown by the F-test significance value of 0.194 (> 0.05). The coefficient of determination (R²) is 0.441, which means that 44.1% of the variation in economic growth can be explained by land use and infrastructure variables, while the remaining 55.9% is influenced by other factors outside the research model. The study concludes that land use and infrastructure have not yet significantly contributed to economic growth in East Nusa Tenggara Province. This condition is attributed to the suboptimal utilization of land resources, low intensity of productive land use, limitations in infrastructure quality, and the lack of integration between land utilization, infrastructure development, and productive economic sectors. Therefore, development policies should not only focus on physical infrastructure development but also emphasize improving human resources, technology, investment, and the effectiveness of infrastructure utilization to achieve sustainable economic growth. Keywords: Land Use, Infrastructure, Economic Growth, Multiple Linear Regression, East Nusa Tenggara Province.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the settlement service center system in relation to the effectiveness of spatial planning policy in Kupang City. This study employs a descriptive quantitative approach using scalogram analysis, the Hansen gravity model, and an evaluation of the Kupang City Spatial Plan (RTRW) 2011–2031. The results indicate that the Coefficient of Reproducibility (COR) value is below the feasibility standard (<0.9), showing that the distribution of facilities in Kupang City is still uneven. Gravity analysis reveals that Oebobo and Maulafa Districts have relatively higher levels of accessibility and regional interaction compared to other districts. Meanwhile, several districts still experience limitations in educational, health, and economic facilities. These conditions indicate that the implementation of spatial planning policy has not yet fully aligned with the directions of the Kupang City RTRW 2011–2031. This study recommends the equitable distribution of public facilities, the strengthening of secondary service centers, and the improvement of interregional infrastructure to support balanced development and the effectiveness of spatial planning policy in Kupang City. Keywords: Settlement Service Centers, Effectiveness of Spatial Planning Policy, Scalogram, Gravity Model, RTRW, Kupang City.

Abstract

Infrastructure development is a crucial aspect in efforts to improve the welfare of rural communities. Based on Law No. 6 of 2014 concerning Villages, villages have the authority to manage their own natural resources and potential to improve community welfare. However, rural infrastructure development still faces various challenges, including disparities between infrastructure sectors. This study aims to analyze village infrastructure development planning based on regional conditions and potential in East Baumata Village, and evaluate the effectiveness of Musrenbang in the planning process. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive research type. The results show that the condition of infrastructure in East Baumata Village shows disparities between sectors. Road infrastructure is still not optimal with damaged, bumpy, and potholed conditions which are the main complaints of the community. In contrast, clean water and irrigation infrastructure are relatively adequate and managed through BUMDes. The village's potential lies in the agricultural sector (rice fields 40.5 ha/m2) and livestock, which are the main livelihoods of the community. Development planning has taken into account regional conditions and potential as reflected in the RPJMDes and RKPDes, but still faces budget constraints in its implementation. The implementation of the Musrenbang (Village Development Planning) has involved active community participation, but its effectiveness has not been optimal due to limited village fiscal capacity. Keywords: Village Infrastructure, Development Planning, Regional Potential, Effectiveness of MusrenbangDes
