Economic development can affect many factors, such as agriculture and industry. These two sectors can significantly affect the economic health. Population growth encourages the employment opportunities to be increased. Industry becomes an area that can provide many job vacancies, but extend the industry is not easy because the side effect often takes agricultural land for operation. Industry in Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) is also growing like in other places. The land is changing from agricultural land to other functions. This phenomenon is gradually increasing year by year. This study aims to analyze the correlation between the industry growth and the decrease of agricultural land. The data from 2001 to 2016 were analyzed to know the correlation. The results ilustrate that there are significant correlations between industry growth and the decrease of agricultural land in Kulonprogo District, Bantul District, Sleman District, and Gunung Kidul District which are known as food production centers in DIY. Yogyakarta City does not have many agricultural lands, therefore there is no correlation between the industry growth and the decrease of agricultural land area. Therefore, develope the industry must consider the land that is used for expansion.
