ABSTRACT
Regional inequality in Bengkulu Province is getting higher with regional
expansion. This regional inequality is visible in Seluma Regency. Therefore,
Seluma Regency must maximize its economic potential by optimizing the
agricultural sector. This can be done by developing land-based areas through
appropriate land use according to the potential of land for agriculture. The
objectives of this research are 1) to analyze land use changes, 2) to analyze
the suitability of land use to capability land for agricultural commodities, 3)
to analyze the suitability of land use to the spatial patterns, and 4) to
prepare land use plans to support regional development plans. This research
uses quantitative data consisting of primary data and secondary data. The
research was conducted using spatial analysis in Seluma Regency, Bengkulu
Province. The research results show that 1) land use changes are dominated by
an increase of rice fields, dry/wetland forests, and open land area, 2)
suitability of land use to capability land for agricultural commodities is
39.77%, and 4.02% is still possible to adjust to capability land for
agricultural commodities, 3) suitability of land use to the spatial pattern is
55.10% and 5.65% is still possible to be adjusted to spatial pattern (transition),
and 4) land use plans to support regional development are directed as an
agricultural area with an area of 45.11% of Seluma Regency total area.

INTRODUCTION
Land is a relatively fixed development resource, while
its use is always changing according to the needs of regional development and
the development of community economic activities (Utoyo, 2012). Regional expansion in Bengkulu Province has led to
regional imbalances between coastal and non-coastal areas, as well as between
regions in coastal areas and non-coastal areas. Seluma Regency, which is one of
the coastal regencies resulting from the expansion of Bengkulu Province, needs
to maximize its economic potential through optimizing the agricultural sector.
This can be seen from the dominance of the agricultural sector in GRDP and the
livelihoods of people who mostly work in the agricultural sector.
Considering that the agricultural sector is a
land-based economic sector, Seluma Regency needs to optimize the agricultural
sector through land use suitability in accordance with the potential of the
land, especially for agriculture. This needs to be done to increase local
revenue that can be used for poverty reduction programs and efforts to increase
the HDI value in Seluma Regency, which in turn contributes to reducing
district/city regional inequality that occurs in Bengkulu Province. In
addition, optimizing the agricultural sector through the suitability of land
use in accordance with the potential of the land, especially for agriculture,
is also expected to reduce the conversion of agricultural land in Seluma
Regency and is in line with the mandate of legislation in the protection of
sustainable agricultural land.
Optimizing the agricultural sector needs to be done
considering the limited development of areas in the east and west of Seluma
Regency. This can be seen from the geographical conditions in the form of
hillside mountains with forest areas covering 36.47% of the area of Seluma
Regency in the eastern region and in the western region limited by a coastline
that stretches from north to south parallel to the Indian Ocean along about 71
km which has the potential to be prone to high disasters. The limitations of regional
development have caused 2 (two) sub-districts to be classified as
underdeveloped, namely Kecamatan Ulu Talo and Kecamatan Seluma Utara, which are
located in hilly and mountainous areas in the eastern region.
Regional inequality in Bengkulu Province is getting
higher with the region's expansion (Arianti
& Cahyadinata, 2016); (Putri &
Almahmudi, 2020); (Febriani
& Yusnida, 2020); (Ridwan et
al., 2022) both between coastal and non-coastal areas, as
well as between regions in coastal areas and non-coastal areas (Windirah et al., 2020). This can be seen in Seluma Regency, one of the
coastal regencies resulting from the expansion of South Bengkulu Regency. BPS
data shows that Seluma Regency in the last five years (2018-2022) has the
highest percentage of poor people, and in the last ten years (2013-2022) has
the lowest HDI value in Bengkulu Province. Seluma Regency also has a low
financial ratio (Abdullah &
Mardatillah, 2017); (Efriyanto et al.,
2023). So, it is not surprising that in the ranking of the
Village Development Index in 2023 issued by the Ministry of Villages,
Development of Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration, there are 3 (three)
sub-districts in the underdeveloped category. Therefore, to reduce regional
inequality, Seluma Regency must maximize its economic potential by optimizing
the agricultural sector (Tatiana et al.,
2015); (Hernadianto et
al., 2016); (Pratama et al.,
2017); (Pasaribu et
al., 2020) because it can absorb 66% of the
workforce and has the most significant contribution to GRDP, which is 47% even
though the percentage of contribution each year is decreasing. This can be done with land-based regional development
through land use suitability based on the potential of the land for
agriculture.
The objectives of the study were (1) to analyze land
use changes in 2017-2023, (2) to analyze land use suitability with land
potential for agricultural commodities, (3) to analyze land use suitability
with spatial patterns of regional spatial plans, and (4) to develop land use
plans to support regional development plans.
METHOD
The research was
conducted in Seluma Regency, Bengkulu Province, which consists of 14
sub-districts. Geographically, Seluma Regency is located on the West Coast of
Southern Sumatra at the coordinates 03049'55.66 "LS�04021'40.22 "LS
and 1010 17'27.67''East-102059'40.54''East. The research was carried out over
nine (nine) months, from October 2023 to June 2024.
This research uses
quantitative data, which consists of primary and secondary data. The primary
data used is land use data in 2023 generated from the interpretation of Landsat
8 satellite imagery and continued with field checks. The secondary data used is
sourced from LAPAN/BRIN, BIG, USGS, the Ministry of Agriculture, KLHK, the
Ministry of ATR/BPN, the Ministry of PUPR, BPS, and the Seluma District
Government.
The research
materials used were statistical and spatial data. Statistical data is sourced
from BPS, while spatial data is sourced from LAPAN/BRIN, BIG, Seluma Regency
Local Government, USGS, Ministry of Agriculture, KLHK, Ministry of ATR/BPN, and
Ministry of PUPR. The tools used were a set of computers equipped with ArcGIS,
Microsoft Office, and Microsoft Excel software.
The data collection
technique for secondary data was through agency visits. In contrast, the 2023
Landsat 8 Satellite Image data was obtained through data acquisition from USGS.
The data analysis technique used was spatial analysis (cropping, raster, and
overlay). The data analysis techniques and expected outputs for each research
objective can be seen in Table 1. The land use used consists of 8 (eight)
types: rice fields, plantations and mixed crops, dry/wetland forests, shrubs,
savanna, open land, built-up land, and waters. The 2017 land use map is
generated from the 2017 land cover map, which has been adjusted to the
administrative boundary map and reclassified by SNI 7645: 2010. The 2023 land
use map is generated from image interpretation using the supervised
classification method with 200 samples/traits of land use classes based on 2017
land use and on-screen digitization of the Landsat 8 satellite image results.

Image
interpretation results were validated through overlaying forest area maps, LSD
maps, KP2B maps, and field checks. Field checks were conducted on 270 randomly
selected observation locations, with the primary consideration being ease of
accessibility. The contingency matrix accuracy test results show 81.48%, which
means that the satellite image interpretation results are still quite good. The
map of potential land use for agricultural commodities is prioritized on
commodities with the highest productivity and the most optimal land potential,
then simplified into 4 (four) classes, namely highly suitable land (0 Ha),
moderately suitable land (6,638.29 Ha or 2.73%), marginally suitable land
(138,588.06 Ha or 56.93%), and unsuitable land (98,204.01 Ha or 40.34%). Crops
are grouped into 3 (three) categories, namely food crops (irrigated rice
paddy-T1, rainfed rice paddy-T2, upland rice-T3, and tidal rice paddy-T4),
horticulture (shallots-H1 and red chili-H2), and plantations (cocoa-P1 and oil
palm-P2). The spatial pattern has been adjusted to the administrative boundary
map and reclassified by Permen ATR/Head of BPN No. 14 of 2021.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Analysis of Land Use Change 2017-2023
Land use in 2017 was dominated by plantations and mixed
crops covering 114,059.35 Ha (46.86%), dry/wetland forests covering 90,645.84
Ha (37.06%), and shrubs covering 28,895.18 Ha (11.87%). Land use in 2023 was
dominated by dry/wetland forest covering 96,087.55 Ha (39.47%), plantations and
mixed crops covering 93,736.51 Ha (38.51%), and rice fields covering 19,975.36
Ha (8.21%). 2023, there was also undefined land use due to cloud cover and
cloud shadows of 6.62%.
Paddy fields, dry/wetland forests, and open land dominate
land use change in Seluma Regency in 2017-2023. The increase in paddy fields of
11,003.25 Ha (4.52%) is dominated by changes in plantations and mixed crops,
shrubs, and savanna into paddy fields. In comparison, the increase in open land
of 454.12 Ha (0.19%) is dominated by changes in plantations and mixed crops and
shrubs into open land. Changes in dry/wetland forests occur because of a new
forest area designation that causes changes in the function of forest areas.
The changes occurred because some nature reserves turned into nature tourism
parks, while some limited production forest areas turned into protected forest
areas, hunting park areas, and permanent production forest areas. These land
use changes indicate that Seluma Regency is still a rural area because the land
use changes are still within the scope of the primary sector.
Other land use changes are forest land use changing to
plantations and mixed crops, shrubs, and savanna. Based on the latest forest
area designation, land use that was previously a forest area is not a forest
area, identified as rice fields, plantations and mixed crops, shrubs, savanna,
and built-up land. The issuance of the local regulation on the protection of
sustainable food agricultural land has led to land uses previously identified
as plantations and mixed crops, shrubs, and savannas designated as paddy
fields.
Other land use changes identified are due to differences
in the data sources' accuracy. Land use 2017 used SPOT 6 satellite imagery
(resolution up to 1.5m for panchromatic and 6m for multispectral), while land
use in 2023 used Landsat 8 satellite imagery (30m spatial resolution). In
addition, there are differences in the satellite image interpretation methods
used, namely land use in 2017 using on-screen digitation (vector), while land
use in 2023 uses software assistance through the supervised classification
method (pixels), causing differences in the accuracy of the resulting land use.
Land use changes in Seluma Regency in 2017-2023 can be seen in Table 2.
Analysis of Land Use Suitability with Land Potential for Agricultural
Commodities
The land use, as measured by its potential for
agricultural commodities, is 96,806.03 Ha (39.77%), consisting of 15,247.28 Ha
(6.26%) of paddy fields and 81558.75 Ha (33.50%) of plantations and mixed
crops.

Rice
field land use that by its land potential consists of moderately suitable land
(S2) of 704.26 Ha (0.29%) and marginally suitable land (S3) of 1,214.26 Ha
(5.97%), while plantation and food crop land use consists of moderately
suitable land (S2) of 2,833.95 Ha (1.16%) and marginally suitable land (S3) of
78,724.80 Ha (32.34%). Transitional land use or not yet suitable and still
possible to be adjusted to the potential of the land is 9,775.83 Ha (4.02%)
consisting of dry/wetland forest (forest1), shrubs, savanna, and open land with
the potential for moderately suitable land (S2) of 237.26 Ha (0.10%) and
marginally suitable land of 9,530.49 Ha (3.92%). Land use suitability with land
potential for agricultural commodities can be seen in Table 3.

Analysis of Land Use
Conformity to the Spatial Pattern of the Tata Plan
Regional
Space
Land
use that is by the spatial pattern of the regional spatial plan is 134,127.77
Ha (55.10%), namely plantation land use and mixed crops covering 70,125.43 Ha
(28.81%), protected forest area covering 45.532.33 Ha (18.70%), limited
production forest area of 9,632.03 Ha (3.96%), hunting park of 4,716.11 Ha
(1.94%), rice fields of 3,002.41 Ha (1.23%), a nature reserve of 200.32 Ha
(0.08%), built-up land of 832.47 Ha (0.34%), and waters of 86.67 Ha (0.04%).
Transitional land use is not yet suitable and still possible to be adjusted to
the spatial pattern of 13,756.87 Ha (5.65%), namely land use of dry / wetland
forest (forest1) covering 1,041.66 Ha (0.43%), shrubs covering 8.568.86 Ha
(3.52%), savanna covering 3,670.49 Ha (1.51%), and open land covering 475.86 Ha
(0.20%) located in the spatial pattern of coastal borders, river borders,
horticultural areas, plantation areas, energy mining areas, and residential areas.
Land use not by the spatial pattern is 77,477.94 Ha (31.83%), which can be
classified as a moderate level of inconsistency (25%-50%) (Fahmi et al., 2016).
Changes in forest area designation have dominated the
land use changes, causing land use inconsistencies with the spatial pattern of
56,329.91% (23.14%). Land use that cannot be
defined and analyzed at this stage is 15,609.89 Ha (6.41%). Furthermore, there
are also differences in administrative boundaries covering 2,457.90 Ha (1.01%).
The suitability of land use with spatial patterns can be seen in Table 4.

Land Use Plan of Seluma
Regency to Support the Plan
Regional
Development
The
land use plan of Seluma Regency is focused on optimizing agricultural areas
that have been adjusted to the potential of the land for agricultural
commodities, covering 109,805.54 Ha (45.11%). The other land use plans are
designated as a forest area of 94,976.42 Ha (39.02%), a residential area of
21,507.86 Ha (8.84%), and a water body of 1,025.95 Ha (0.42%), which can be
seen in Table 5. The forest area land use plan consists of nature reserves,
nature tourism parks, hunting park areas, permanent production forest areas,
limited production forest areas, and protected forest areas according to the
latest forest area designation. Settlement and water areas follow the 2023 land
use. Transitional land use (dry/wetland forest in the form of forest, shrubs, savanna,
and open land) that does not have land potential for agricultural commodities
is allocated to develop residential areas. The agricultural land use plan
consists of a food crop area of 15,247.28 Ha (6.26%) and a horticultural area
of 13.85 Ha (0.01%). It is dominated by a plantation area of 94,544.42 Ha
(38.84%). Food crop areas are dominated by marginal suitable land potential of
14,543.02 Ha (5.97%). All horticultural areas have marginal suitable land
potential. Plantation areas are dominated by a marginally suitable land
potential of 90,484.03 Ha (37.17%). This
land also has the potential for marginal suitable land for horticultural
commodities. This shows that land users are given 4 (four) variations and
commodity choices in maximizing land use.

Food crop areas and
plantation areas in Seluma Regency are spread across all sub-districts, while
horticultural areas are only located in 3 (three) sub-districts, namely
Semidang Alas Sub-district covering an area of 7.79 Ha, Talo Kecil Sub-district
covering an area of 6.03 Ha, and Ulu Talo Sub-district covering an area of 0.02
Ha. This is by the results of research (Yulihartika & Herfianti, 2021),
which states the feasibility of chili farming in Ulu Talo Subdistrict,
precisely in Hargo Binangun Village and Air Keruh Village, because it has the
largest harvest area and chili production. Semidang Alas Maras sub-district has
a food crop area of 2,409.19 Ha and is the sub-district with the largest food
crop area, which is 15.80% of the total food crop area in Seluma Regency. The
largest plantation area is in Sukaraja Sub-district, which is 15,880.77 Ha or
16.80% of the total plantation area in Seluma Regency. (Africa, 2023)
explained that the suitability of paddy fields in South Seluma District
consists of the S2 class with limiting factors of nutrient retention (pH) and
available nutrients (P2O5) and the S3 class with limiting factors of nutrient
retention (pH) and available nutrients (P2O5 and K2O). These results are also
in line with this research, which shows that Seluma Selatan Sub-district has
marginal suitable land (S2) for irrigated paddy rice (T1), rainfed paddy rice
(T2), upland rice (T3), and tidal paddy rice (T4).
CONCLUSION
Land use change in
Seluma Regency during the 2017-2023 period includes changes from plantations,
mixed crops, shrubs, and savannah to rice fields. In addition, some nature
reserves have been converted into nature tourism parks. In contrast, some
limited-production forest areas have been converted into protected hunting
parks and permanent production forest areas. Other
changes include the conversion of plantations and mixed crops and shrubs to
open land. Land use, by its land potential for agricultural commodities,
reaches 39.77%, while those in transition or not yet suitable and can still be
adjusted amount to 4.02%, unsuitable at 42.65%, and undefined at 6.62%.
Furthermore, land use by the spatial
pattern is 55.10%, in transition or not yet suitable by 5.65%, not suitable by
31.83%, and undefined by 6.41%. There are differences in administrative
boundaries by 1.01%. The land use plan to support regional development is
directed at agricultural areas amounting to 45.11% of the total area of Seluma
Regency, with agricultural areas dominated by plantations and food crops spread
across all sub-districts. In contrast, horticultural areas are only found in
Semidang Alas District, Talo Kecil District, and Ulu Talo District.
