Population growth model is a widely been used model to do an estimation and forecasting towards the population of peoples, animals, bac-teria and even in economics growth. Many studies have been carried out on population growth model concerning the factors of birth, death and carrying capacity in order to predict the number of population at certain area. From these studies there is only one study involved the constant value factor of migration as an input in the logistic model. Therefore contradicting with the above modified logistic model, in this study logistic model is modified by adding a migration factor as a function of population. This function takes into account the migration and the interaction between peoples that is limited to the carrying capacity of the environment. This model can be solved qualitatively using the analysis of equilibrium point and quantitatively using the separable variables method. This modified logistic model with migration factor has been applied in the population prediction of Purwanegara village in Central Java Province, Indonesia. Throughout the results, the modified logistic model with migration factor as a function of population gives a better result for population prediction of Purwanegara village in Central Java Province, Indonesia compared with logistic model.

Availability of soil erosion data is crucial for recovering carrying capacity of a degraded watershed. This study aims to analyze the level of soil erosion hazard in Gagakan Sub-Watershed, located at the downstream of Solo Watershed. Slope steepness of this area vary from very steep at the upper part and flat at the downstream. The dominant land cover is teak forest which consists of young and old stands. The level of soil erosion hazard was calculated by USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation) and then analyzed spatially using GIS (Geographic Information System). The degree of erosion hazard was classified into five classes, i.e very slight, slight, moderate, severe, and very severe. The results showed that erosion hazard level of Gagakan sub-watershed ranged from very slight to very severe. The dominant is very slight (69%), while the others classified as slight (11%), moderate (15%), severe (1%), and very severe (4%). The countermeasures of soil erosion should be focused on the area with severe and very severe level of erosion hazard.

Food self-sufficiency policy in Indonesia relies on the sustainability of productive land that meets the requirements for carrying capacity of agricultural land. But the fact is that in various regions, the existence of agricultural land resources is increasingly being degraded in terms of quantity and quality. This study aims to evaluate paddy field with NDVI analysis with extensive GIS calculations and integrated with the food self-sufficiency formulas. Monitoring of paddy field area using remote sensing and mapping techniques has been well recognized and efficient. The research was conducted in Batang Regency, Central Java Province, Indonesia, that annually produces 104,211ton rice on average. The results showed that the production of lowland rice is sufficient to meet the daily rice needs of 897.19 gr per capita. The regency also showed a surplus of rice production of more than 342 gr per capita above the daily needs, fulfilling the criteria of food self-sufficiency. Food self-sufficiency classification is associated with the carrying capacity analysis found ca. 4.179 (α>1), revealing that rice production can fulfil the needs of the population of Batang Regency.  JEL Classification 013; Q00; R11
