Abstract

Regional Development in the long term is more emphasized on the potential introduction of natural resources and regional development. As one of the cities that has abundant natural resource potential, Sungai Penuh City should optimize its potential of coffee cultivation. This plant commodity is viewed by the government as a potential to improve the welfare of its people as well as to keep nature sustainable. This study aims to determine land that has the potential land for coffee plantation by using overlay analysis in GIS. The methods used in this study are the Agro-Ecological Zone (AEZ) analysis and land suitability analysis. The variables consist of physiographic, slope, altitude, soil type, rainfall, protected forest and map of existing conditions. The potential land for Arabica coffee, is the result of overlaying the AEZ and land suitability. The results is 1,346 hectares could potentially be planted with arabica coffee plants.
