The method used is the survey method. Land units are based on soil maps, slope maps, altitude maps, land cover maps, consisting of 6 land units and 18 points. The analysis method is the comparing (matching) method. The results of the research show that the level of land suitability for durian plants (Durio zibethinus Murr.)
