Abstract
Food security can be achieved through the development of agricultural area and water supply. This study aims to figure out the potential of land development for food crop cultivation, both of the technical irrigation land and rainfed land in Bedadung watershed. The suitability principle of natural resources for food crops is utilized to determine the potential for agricultural area development. In this case, the parameters are land suitability based on the water availability which can be seen from the Oldeman classification, land elevation, and land topography. The results showed that Bedadung Watershed more suitable for corn ( S2 ). The rice cultivation can be done by considering the S3 classification and it must be supported by good water availability for providing an adequate irrigation system.
