Abstract

The existence of agricultural land is indirectly related to the environment. The existence of agricultural land in terms of environmental aspects can provide five types of benefits, namely preventing flooding, controlling water balance, preventing erosion, and reducing environmental pollution from household waste. This research aims to analyze environmental changes in the conversion of agricultural land to non-agricultural activities in Palembang City. This research uses quantitative methods, analytical quantitative research is conducted to accept or reject hypotheses that are described by significance values. The research also used qualitative methods by conducting measured interviews with 250 respondents. The research was conducted in May 2023 in three sub-districts in Palembang City, namely Kalidoni, Kertapati, and Gandus sub-districts. The environmental indicators used as a reference include water quality, air quality, soil conditions, traffic conditions, runoff water conditions, plant conditions, and animal conditions. The results showed that the condition of plant environmental quality in the Gandus and Kalidoni sub-districts is classified as poor, while the Kertapati sub-district is in the good category. While the condition of the environmental quality of animal indicators in the Kertapati and Kalidoni sub-districts is in the good enough category, but in the Gandus sub-district it is in the bad category. Dragonfly populations will be high if the habitat conditions are very suitable. This means that there are still streams or puddles that are still clean and food is available. This clean water is the place for dragonfly eggs and images for further development. So if the dragonfly population at a location is still high, it means that the water conditions at that location are still not polluted.

Abstract

Land conversion is an activity that changes the land area and also its function into a new area and has another function and has an impact on environmental problems and land potential. The impact of land conversion is the loss of rice fields and causes rice production to decline. Therefore, it is very relevant to analyze the policy strategy of agricultural land conversion to support the control of agricultural land conversion in Palembang City. This research was conducted in Palembang City in 2023 using survey method, with purposive sampling of 23 key informants. SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) was used to answer this research. The results showed aggressive strategies that can be applied to control the conversion of lebak swamp land in Palembang City, namely, maintaining the level of rice productivity along with high demand, accelerating the preparation of Regional Regulations related to Sustainable Food Agricultural Land (LP2B), improving the performance of agricultural extension institutions to supervise and provide counseling, increasing the competitiveness of farmers given the existing potential and creating innovations with superior agricultural product centers in local business development-based areas.
