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...

This study demonstrates the ability of GIS and Remote Sensing in capturing spatial-temporal data on land use and land cover classes. The nine land cover classes captured were Built-up area, Secondary forests, Savannah, Grasslands, and Shrublands containing herbaceous, Rain-fed shrub crops, Fresh water swamps, Water bodies, and Farmlands. The remote sensed imageries also displayed how the land u...

This study aims to determine land suitability class for of plantation crops, namely; cocoa, arabica coffee and durian in Cemplang region, Ciomas district, Serang Regency. The research used several stages method including; collecting data information, determining soil sample points field surveys, taking samples observation, conducting laboratory analysis assessing classes. Data processing was ca...

The objective of this article is to apply fuzzy set and interpolation techniques for land suitability evaluation for maize in Northern Ghana. Land suitability indices were computed at point observations using the Semantic Import (SI) model, whereas spatial interpolation was carried out by block kriging. Interpolated land suitability shows a high correlation (R2 = 0.87) with observed maize yield...

land suitability analysis, commonly known as land evaluation, is considered an interface between land resourcesurvey and land use planning and management. land evaluation be carried out to estimate the suitability of land fora specific use such as arable farming or irrigated agriculture. there are several established techniques for generatingland suitability evaluation. this research was carrie...

Land evaluation is imperative for its efficient use in agriculture. Therefore, this study aimed at assessing the suitability of a region West El-Minia cultivating some major crops using geographical information system (GIS). The results focus on allocating space sugar beet and utilizing free period other crops. This exploitation helps to maintain quality land increase fertility by crop rotation...

Land-cover (LC) mapping in a morphologically heterogeneous landscape area is challenging task since various LC classes (e.g., crop types agricultural areas) are spectrally similar. Most research still mostly relying on optical satellite imagery for these tasks, whereas synthetic aperture radar (SAR) often neglected. Therefore, this assessed the classification accuracy using recent Sentinel-1 (S...

ABSTRACT
 
 This study aimed to determine the land suitability class for soybean, corn and peanut plants in Kamno Sari Village, Jagebob District, Merauke Regency. Data analysis was carried out by matching or compare requirement plant properties of area. The results this comparison shows level corn, soybeans peanuts which includes S1 (very suitable), S2 (appropriate), S3 (marginally ap...

Abstract Crop suitability analysis using novel models is a pillar for sustainable land-use planning. In this work, the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) was integrated with GIS to produce maps wheat and maize under sprinkler irrigation broad bean drip irrigation. The study conducted in an arid area, west Nile Delta of Egypt. characteristics local climate, landscape, groundwater quality were ma...
