| Summary: | In this study using two-stage approach in evaluating land. Used three kinds
of maps, maps of soil types, slope maps and land use maps. The three maps of the
overlay map unit acquired land then the map is used to determine the land
suitability classes using the scoring method.
Land evaluation is the process of estimating the potential of land resources
for various uses by comparing the requirements necessary for a particular land use
with the nature of the existing resources on the land. This study used to evaluate
the land as a basis for consideration in the development of hand tractors in the
Bantul region.
From the
calculation for the land class S3 predicted to require 184 units of hand tractors.
Of the results of research in the Bantul region there are 250 units of land
are divided into 4 classes. S1 class is a class that is very suitable land. Of 250
units of land there are 27 units which is a class S1 with a land area of 17.184,09
hectares. S2 class there are 72 units with an area of 12.728,04 hectares of land. S3
class there are 140 units with an area of 19.909,89 hectares of land. N classes are
37 units with total area of 1218,59 hectares. from the calculation needs hand
tractors Bantul district requires an additional 77 units of hand tractors.
Calculation of economic analysis suggests the use of hand tractors for tillage is
more economical and efficient compared with traditional tillage
