Abstract

A systematic process of assessing the potential and limitation of land resources for specific uses is essential to provide information for land-use planning, resource management, and policy-making. This research aims to determine the actual and potential land suitability for corn (Zea mays L.) in Cikancung District, Bandung Regency, West Java, Indonesia. Land suitability evaluation was carried out through a survey method using a physiographic approach through overlaying soil maps, topography, climate, and land use to produce land map units (SPL). Data were obtained through field observations at each SPL, and the results of analysis of soil samples were taken from each SPL. Field and laboratory data were matched with corn growth requirements through the matching table method. The study revealed that land in Cikancung District has actual land suitability classes for corn cultivation of N1n.,eh; N2eh; and S3rc.nr. Of the total 987.13 ha, 3.54 ha is classified as S3, while 983.59 ha is unsuitable due to slope limitations. With slope improvements (e.g., terraces) and nutrient retention measures (e.g., lime application), and orgnanic matter application. The potential land suitability classes improve to S2wa.rc; S3eh; and Neh. Under these improved conditions, the potential suitable land area for corn (S2 and S3) increases to 142.01 ha, representing 14.38% of the total land area.
