Abstract

Rapid urbanization has become a significant global phenomenon, affecting major cities and suburban areas and profoundly impacting urban life. This article explores the correlation between the increase in population as an effect of urbanization and the availability of essential services in Rangkasbitung, which consists of 16 villages. This research aims to determine the impact of the availability of crucial daily services on the amount of residential land use in Rangkasbitung. Essential services are assessed using the 20-minute neighborhood parameter, representing an area designed to provide essential services within a short walk for residents. This research uses a quantitative descriptive methodology with spatial and descriptive statistical analysis. The study is limited to the availability of residential land use, essential services, and public transportation as the three main components in the development of urban residential areas based on the 20-Minute Neighborhood parameter. The 20-minute neighborhood is a city planning concept defined as an area where residents can access most activities necessary for a good life without traveling outside the area. The results indicate that the availability of essential services in an area affects residents' decisions on where to live.

Abstract

The area designated for agriculture is diminishing due to urban expansion. Control measures play a crucial role in preventing the conversion of agricultural land. The limited availability of land in Surakarta City serves as justification for the city government, as a regulatory body, not to designate agricultural areas in the Surakarta City spatial planning (RTRW) for the years 2021-2041. When the central government enacted a policy regarding the protection of rice fields, the Surakarta City administration requested its exclusion from the decree. This study adopts a case study approach to provide an overview of agricultural lands in Surakarta City that have been omitted from this policy. Data were gathered through interviews, observations, and document analysis. It has been observed that Surakarta City still possesses rice fields that local farmers cultivate, and these farmers are residents holding Surakarta ID cards. This situation leads to a realization that the city’s planning fails to support sustainable development despite agriculture not being the predominant occupation in the area. In addition to the ineffective control efforts at the city level, this phenomenon highlights the need for agricultural empowerment to ensure the continued development of socio-cultural practices.

Abstract

Selur Village is an agrarian village where most residents rely on the agricultural sector as their primary source of livelihood. However, this sector faces challenges such as limited irrigation access, suboptimal land management, and the impacts of climate change. Agroecology offers an integrative solution combining ecological, social, and cultural aspects to enhance agricultural sustainability. This study aims to delineate superior commodity zoning through agroecological maps tailored to the biophysical potential of the area and to understand local farming practices based on agroecological principles. The research employs a mixed-method approach, with primary data obtained through interviews with 18 farmers, analyzed using Deductive Qualitative Analysis (DQA) to describe current farming practices, which were then interpreted about agroecological principles. Secondary data, including slope, elevation, air temperature, rainfall, and soil type, were spatially analyzed using QGIS to produce agroecological zone maps. Land suitability assessment was conducted using the matching method, aligning land characteristics with crop growth requirements. The results indicate that the majority of land in Selur village is suitable for perennial crops and forestry. Key commodities such as rice, maize, turmeric, and horticultural crops exhibit high compatibility with land conditions. The findings emphasize the application of agroecological principles, including crop diversification, soil conservation, and resource recycling, but highlight the need for further interventions. The study concludes by recommending strategies such as sustainable intensification, land rehabilitation, and enhanced market access to optimize agricultural productivity and resilience in Selur Village.

Abstract

The tourism sector is growing rapidly and emerging as a key driver of regional development. One approach to fostering tourism is establishing Tourism Villages, such as Panta'nakan Lolo Village, which capitalizes on its tourism potential. As a tourist village, it features iconic attractions like Ke'te Kesu. Tourism development has driven increased accommodations alongside physical and spatial changes in the settlement environment. These include new construction, spatial reorganization, and changes in tourism activities and management. This study examines spatial changes in Panta'nakan Lolo Village's settlements before and after its designation as a Tourism Village. Using a qualitative method, data were collected through field surveys, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Spatial-temporal analysis identified changes in land use patterns during 2012, 2018, and 2024. Additionally, settlement patterns were assessed using the Nearest Neighbor Analysis approach with ArcGIS software. The results reveal significant spatial transformations linked to the village’s tourism development. These changes include expanded built-up areas, integration of tourism elements into settlements, and the rise of tourism-related activities and management systems.

Abstract

Sumberbrantas village faces potential soil damage due to agricultural intensification for biomass production on sloping land with high erosion rates. The importance of soil conservation through the local wisdom approach encourages this research to explore soil damage control techniques the local community applies. This study aims to identify local wisdom-based soil conservation techniques applied in land management for biomass production. The methods used included structured interviews with 90 respondents who work as farmers/gardeners, followed by field observations and documentation to collect primary data on community characteristics, land use, and conservation techniques. The results showed that the community applied conservation techniques in crop rotation, intercropping, and terracing as the primary efforts to reduce soil damage. Organic fertilizers, simple technologies such as hoeing, mechanical methods in the form of rolling terraces, and vegetative methods in the form of ground cover plants are also commonly applied. Most communities have gained this knowledge from generation to generation and through regular counseling. Land management based on community wisdom in Sumberbrantas Village effectively maintains land productivity while preserving the environment. These techniques reflect the community's adaptation to environmental challenges, with the potential to be further developed through modern innovations and local traditions.

Abstract

The increase in population is in line with the increase in resource use, including the need for land as a space for human activities to meet their needs. Land conversion, primarily agricultural land, into non-agricultural land can reduce the ability of land ecosystems to provide food. This research aims to assess the performance of ecosystem services for providing rice food in Malang Regency. The study used the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method, a simple weighting and scoring method of land use parameters, landform ecoregions, natural vegetation types, soil types, and rainfall to determine ecosystem services for food provision. The results showed that the Malang Regency area consists of 5 classes of Ecosystem Service Performance Index (ESPI) for rice food providers, including Very High, High, Medium, Low, and Very Low. The Medium class is the ESPI class with the highest area of 117,452.85 hectares or 34% of the total area. Followed by Low ESPI class 99,980.31 hectares (29%), High ESPI class 90,742.14 hectares (26%), Very Low ESPI class 19,191.28 hectares (6%), and Very High ESPI class 17,442.59 (5%).
