Abstract
North Polombangkeng District is one of the districts in Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi, where 44% of the total land area of 9495 ha out of 21225 ha are steeply sloped areas. Therefore we need a policy direction on the arrangement of the use of conservation areas to support the sustainability of the existing environment in the form of mapping conservation area plans. This study uses a soil survey method and evaluation of land capability. Physical Factors the environment is a limiting factor in determining land use policy, namely slope factors, soil sensitivity to erosion, and rainfall intensity. The research shows that Barugayya Village, Towata Village, and Kampung Baru Village are included in class IV land grade classification and Ko'mara Village in Class VI. At the same time, the Scoring Assessment of Physical Environmental Factors in Forest Areas has a range of values ranging from 160 to 215, the area of which is planned to be a conservation area. Determination of Conservation Area refers to the function criteria of forest area based on the scoring System of the Minister of Agriculture Regulation in Minister of Agriculture Decree No. 837/Kits/Um/11/80.
Highlights
The need for land is increasing every year, resulting in the conversion of land from the property, which should be a conservation area instead used as an area of farming, settlements, and industry with all forms of human activity in it
Development in Makassar City which is the capital of South Sulawesi province has an impact on growth in Takalar Regency, especially in North Polombangkeng District, which is included in the development of the Mamminasata Metropolitan Area (Perpres 55/2011) which covers 4 districts/cities namely: Makassar, Maros, Sungguminasa, and Takalar
Based on Fajeriana (2018), North Polombangkeng District is one of the Districts in Takalar Regency which is the center of agricultural and plantation cultivation with 21225 ha of land with the total area divided by the following designation: irrigated rice fields 9463.61 ha; dryland agriculture 4070.2 ha; shrubs 7212.8 ha; secondary forest 102.5 ha; residential area of 45.5 ha; open land 121.7 ha and area of river 207.98 ha; and has different slope levels, i.e., they are in the slope class 0 - 3% with an area of 3960 ha
