Description
Summary:In this study, the cultivation of pomegranate (Punica granatum) with respect to the ecological requirements of these species was studied. In order to determine the ecological requirements of this species including: elevation, aspect, slope, type of soil and feasibility study it. The questionnaire prepared was to the Delphi method and provided 64 natural resources experts and university professors. Evaluation of habitat conditions using approach AHP of MADM method. Using the scoring criteria whit AHP calculated was weight each criterion in Expert Choice software. In this research using AHP and GIS used evaluation criteria and analyzed were topographic data In GIS. For Integration layers used was overlay method and integrated were data generated with GIS. Using this method and data transmission shown to be condition ecological capability on the map. Finally, using  the results of the analysis of factors affecting introduced was spatial distribution of this species. The results of this study indicate the cultivation of Punica granatum  about 1988 hectares equivalent to 72.34% of Bolhasan forest in excellent condition, 1577 ha equivalent to 55.27% in a good condition and 2160 ha equivalent to 73.37% in poor condition
