Abstract

Agricultural land plays a vital role in supporting food security and the regional economy; however, rapid development often leads to land-use conversion. This study aims to analyze changes in agricultural land in Central Lombok Regency over the past ten years (2014–2023) using the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. The research utilized Landsat satellite imagery to classify land cover types and identify agricultural areas through supervised classification and change detection techniques. The analysis results show a significant decline in agricultural land area, from 29% in 2014 to 26% in 2023. This decrease indicates a conversion of agricultural land to other more economically profitable uses, such as infrastructure development and plantation expansion. The accuracy assessment yielded an overall accuracy of 99%, which is categorized as very good, demonstrating the reliability of the model in mapping land-use changes. The findings of this study are expected to provide useful insights for policymakers in promoting sustainable land-use planning and mitigating the negative impacts of land conversion on the agricultural sector in Central Lombok Regency.

Abstract

In tropical regions such as East Lombok Regency, where food production is highly dependent on rainfall, drought poses a major threat to the agricultural sector. This study aims to monitor drought patterns over time using Google Earth Engine (GEE). Vegetation indices, including the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), and Normalized Difference Drought Index (NDDI), were derived from Landsat 8 satellite imagery. The analysis revealed that during the dry season, particularly in August and September, the southern region—especially Jerowaru Sub-district—experienced severe drought conditions. The western parts, including Sambelia, Pringgabaya, and Suela Sub-districts, were also significantly affected, with the most impacted areas being rain-fed rice fields, corn plantations, and mixed horticultural crops. Temporal trend analysis indicated an increasing drought intensity in the later years of observation. The resulting information can support decision-making in drought risk mitigation and sustainable water resource management. By integrating satellite-based drought assessment with agricultural planning, this approach can strengthen food security and promote adaptive agricultural practices in drought-prone regions such as East Lombok Regency.
