Abstract

Lampung Province is one of provinces in Indonesia which has a huge agriculture potential. Lampung’s sectoral contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) is predominantly from agriculture sector which makes up to 30% of the total Lampung GDP in 2017. The high agricultural contribution supports Lampung to surpass national economic growth in 2011 – 2017. Lampung is one of Indonesia’s major producer of a wide variety of agricultural products and commodities which include palm oil, cassava, rice, and chili pepper. However, the agriculture potential is not managed properly, thus agriculture sector shows a declining trend on Lampung regional GDP. This research aims to determine zonation of agropolitan area to promote agriculture development in Lampung Province. We use quantitative method by retrieving secondary data of GDP, agriculture commodities, and road map derived from Statistics of Lampung Province and Open Street Map (OSM) respectively. Analysis of the GDP data using Location Quotient (LQ) and Krugman Specialization Index (SI), and analysis of agropolitan zonation using geographic information system (GIS). The result indicates that agriculture development using agropolitan zonation is strongly affected by the percentage of agriculture shares on GDP and the distribution of road network across Lampung Province.
