Evaluation of land suitability as the basis for sustainable crop development

Crop-land Suitability Analysis Using a Multicriteria Evaluation & Gis Approach

Crop-land suitability analysis is a prerequisite to achieve optimum utilization of the available land resources for sustainable agricultural production. One of the most important and urgent problems in Bangladesh is to improve agricultural land management and cropping patterns to increase the agricultural production with efficient use of land resources. In Bangladesh, agriculture is the mainsta...

GIS-based fuzzy membership model for crop-land suitability analysis

Crop-land suitability analysis is a prerequisite to achieve optimum utilisation of the available land resources for sustainable agricultural production. The Food and Agricultural Organisation [FAO, 1976. A framework for land evaluation (Soils Bulletin No. 32). FAO, Rome.] recommended an approach for land suitability evaluation for crops in terms of suitability ratings from highly suitable to no...

Study on Approaches of Land Suitability Evaluation for Crop Production Using GIS

In this paper, an approach to assessing ecological suitability of crop growth was developed using GIS, through a case study of maize planting in Jilin Province, in the northeast China, in order to improve the accuracy and objectivity of the evaluation, promote the rationality of crop distribution, and increase the efficiency of the agro-resource utility. Climate and soil conditions in the regio...
