Abstract

Peri-urban agriculture (PUA) has different ecological, socio-institutional, and economic conditions. The dynamic characteristics of PUA are driven by the location in a rural-to-urban transitional zone. In this context, a new approach should be developed for identifying PUA typologies to facilitate more effective and relatively quick policy management and planning. Therefore, this study aims to develop new categories and a set of methodologies to determine PUA typologies using statistical approaches such as variable simplification (Principal Component Analysis), cluster analysis (K-means), and village-based spatial characterization mapping. A structured selection was conducted to determine the case studies, and two adjacent suburban districts in the Jakarta Bandung Mega Urban Region (JBMUR) corridor were obtained. The results show that there is a new insight into the use of spatial approaches and the relationship between empirical conditions at the local level and policies related to PUA. The developed typology approach describes significant variations in agricultural conditions based on the intensity. Strategies and recommendations for PUA development based on typology are also proposed.
