Abstract

This study aims to determine the direction of land use in Ratahan Subdistrict, Ratahan Timur and Pasan, Southeast Minahasa Regency, based on the Agroecology Zone using the application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The type of research used in this study is quantitative research with a method of data and spatial interpretation. The types of data used in the study are primary data and secondary data. The data generated is arranged in the form of information and spatial. The study was conducted in 3 (three) subdistricts namely Ratahan Subdistrict, Ratahan Timur Subdistrict and Pasan Subdistrict, Southeast Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi Province, which were included in 1 (one) sub-district, Ratahan Sub-district.

Besides that, biophysical data analysis and agricultural potential data will be carried out. The results of the study based on the concept of land use in Ratahan Subdistrict, East Ratahan and Pasan results of agroecological zone maps using GIS obtained 32 zones from the results of analysis of soil type and slope data and climate type. The results of the analysis of the allocation in accordance with the conditions of land use (land cover) as well as the output of the map of Southeast Minahasa Regency RTRW space map in 2013, the agroecological zone can be divided into two main uses, namely protected zone and cultivation zone.
