The northern suburbs of Bandung City are an expansion area of the development of Bandung City. The regional development in suburban areas can cause land conversion problems. The objective of the present study was to identify the community's response and the factors of land conversion in the northern suburbs of Bandung City. A descriptive quantitative method was employed through the presentation of percentages and the results of interviews with 108 respondents. Findings reveal that the people’s responses to land conversion exhibited positive and negative responses. Among the positive responses were that land conversion was perceived appropriate for regional development; road construction could increase citizen mobility and create job opportunities. Meanwhile, among the negative responses were that land conversion could result in hot temperatures, barren fields, humidity, lack of water sources, and the loss of agricultural land. The factors affecting land use conversion included population growth, the development of the Bandung City area, construction of residential and tourist areas, increased land prices, and socio-cultural factors of the Sundanese people.Keywords: community response,  land function conversion factors, suburbs of the north of Bandung, land function conversion

Perlindungan Lahan Pertanian Pangan Berkelanjutan (PLP2B ‐ Sustainable Farm Land Protection) is agovernment policy aimed to prevent farm land conversion. It has been implemented among others inDemak Regency, which is one of the region’s main food source. The study identified the potential andchallenges of the implementation of the policy through the method of superimpose between the plannedmap and the actual land use conversion, supported by land conversion data from the Land Office andinterview with selected sources. The study showed that land conversion is still occurring and that thereare mismatches between the planned map and the actual condition. Interviews suggested that there stillvast measure of farm land available still for improvement into sustainable farm lands. Challenges emergefrom the high demand for housing areas, illegal land conversion and lack of policy socialization to thecommunity.Keywords: land conversion, planning map, factors affecting the implementation of policy

Agricultural land conversion (ALC) is an incentive–driven process. In this paper we further investigate the inter–relationship between land economic value (LEV) and ALC. To achieve this goal, we calculated LEV for agricultural and non-agricultural (housing) uses in two areas in East Java, Indonesia. The first area represents suburban agriculture, facing rapid urbanization and experiencing high rate of ALC. The second area represents rural agriculture with zero ALC. Furthermore, we identified factors affecting LEV in both areas for both uses. The resut of this study show that agricultural land yielded higher economic benefit in rural area. Conversely, comparing to agricultural land, housing creates 7 times higher value in urban area. Moreover, agricultural land shown to create higher profit after converted. Ironically, the similar comparison doesn’t exists in rural area. Agricultural land only yielded 19% more value, indicate that agricultural land can be easily converted. It is also proven by the growing number of new urban core in the periphery area. There are several factors affecting land economic value, for agricultural use, soil fertility, accessibility, and cropping pattern are important variables. While accessibility and location in urban area increases land value for housing.

Agricultural land conversion occurs mostly in big cities in Indonesia and also occurs in small villages and towns on a small scale but not much has been done by the study. This study was linked to detect factors affecting land conversion in Kota Solok. This research was conducted by survey method. Sampling is done by simple random sampling with balanced amount. The data collected in this study includes primary data and secondary data. The analysis is done by description using percentage of respondent's level of achievement (tcr). The result of the analysis shows that the conversion of paddy fields in Solok City is mostly done by individual buyers, the internal factor which has the greatest effect on the conversion of paddy fields in Solok City is the economic condition, while the external factor is caused by the population growth and the policy caused by the weakness of policy control which government apparatus.

Rural and isolated areas such as those found in northern Ontario are often underserviced with respect to occupational therapy. These areas present special problems for those involved in recruitment and planning recruitment programs. While it is generally recognized that practice in these areas can be both stimulating and rewarding, little is known about what factors might influence occupational therapists to choose these areas for job sites. It was the purpose of this study to investigate factors affecting job site selection and retention among occupational therapists in northern Ontario. Seven potential factors were explored: family proximity, place of origin, lifestyle, fieldwork placements, job opportunities and recruitment tours. These became the basis for the development of a questionnaire which was sent to all facilities employing occupational therapists in northern Ontario. The responses of twenty eight therapists (70%) indicated that the factors affecting job site selection were, in descending order: lifestyle, job opportunity, partner's employment and family proximity. The results also indicated that the factors influencing recruitment and retention differ. Based on the findings, recruitment efforts should focus on emphasizing the attractive features of the north and perhaps on people with family in the north. Retention incentives should include money for equipment, space, continuing education, travel, better salaries, links to educational resources and fieldwork placements.

Agricultural land conversion (ALC) is an incentive-driven process. In this paper, we further investigate the inter-relationship between land economic value (LEV) and ALC. To achieve this goal, we calculated the LEV for agricultural and non-agricultural (housing) uses in two areas of East Java, Indonesia. The first area represents peri-urban agriculture, which is facing rapid urbanization and experiencing a high rate of ALC. The second area represents rural agriculture, with zero ALC. Furthermore, we identified factors affecting LEV in both areas for both uses. The results of this study show that agricultural land yielded a higher economic benefit in rural areas. Conversely, compared to agricultural land, housing in urban areas yields a value that is seven times higher. Moreover, agricultural land was shown to yield a higher profit after conversion. Ironically, a similar comparison does not exist in rural areas. Agricultural land yielded a value that was only 19% higher, indicating that agricultural land can easily be converted. This is also proven by the growing number of new urban cores in the periphery area. There are several factors affecting land economic value, such as agricultural use, soil fertility, accessibility, and cropping pattern, which are important variables. Meanwhile, the accessibility and location of peri-urban areas increase the land value for housing.

<p>ABSTRACT<br />Increasing the number of people in Java affected the increasing demand for land for community activities. This became one of the drivers of the conversion of agricultural land into non-agricultural land. On the other hand, the increasing need for food makes the government must establish a policy of protection of agricultural land so as not to be converted. Efforts to control food land conversion need to look at the factors that affect land conversion in each region. Thus, the established program is more effective because it is able to answer the problems faced by the community, especially the land owner. This study aims to identify factors affecting land conversion in Pandeglang Regency. The factors was analyzed by ordinal regression.. The results showed that factors affecting land conversion are land tenure, B/C ratio of paddy farming, and road conditions. The effort to suppress the conversion of agricultural land requires the commitment of the government and the community as policy actors. The establishment of rural area institutions based on local community business is one solution to prevent the conversion of agricultural land.<br />Keywords: Land conversion, food-crop land protection, rice field, institution</p><p><br />ABSTRAK<br />Peningkatan jumlah penduduk di Pulau Jawa berpengaruh pada peningkatan kebutuhan lahan untuk aktivitas masyarakat. Hal ini menjadi salah satu pendorong terjadinya alih fungsi lahan pertanian menjadi lahan non pertanian. Di sisi lain, kebutuhan pangan yang semakin meningkat membuat pemerintah harus menetapkan kebijakan perlindungan lahan pertanian pangan agar tidak dialih fungsikan. Upaya pengendalian alih fungsi lahan pangan perlu melihat faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi alih fungsi lahan di masing-masing wilayah. Sehingga, program yang ditetapkan lebih efektif karena mampu menjawab permasalahan yang dihadapi masyarakat khususnya pemilik lahan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor yang mempengaruhi alih fungsi lahan di Kabupaten Pandeglang dan. Faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi alih fungsi lahan dianalisis dengan uji regresi ordinal. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor yang mempengaruhi alih fungsi lahan adalah luas penguasaan lahan, B/C rasio usaha tani padi, dan kondisi jalan. Usaha menekan konversi lahan pangan memerlukan komitmen pemerintah dan masyarakat sebagai pelaku kebijakan. Pembentukan kelembagaan kawasan perdesaan berbasis bisnis komunitas lokal menjadi salah satu solusi dalam mencegah alih fungsi lahan pertanian pangan.<br />Kata Kunci: alih fungsi lahan, perlindungan lahan pertanian pangan, sawah, kelembagaan</p>

Uncontrolled urban expansion resulting from urbanization has a disastrous impact on agricultural land. This situation is being experienced by the densely populated and fertile island Java in Indonesia. Remote sensing technologies have developed rapidly in recent years, including the creation of Google Earth Engine (GEE). Intensity analysis (IA) is increasingly being used to systematically and substantially analyze land-use/land-cover (LULC) change. As yet, however, no study of land conversion from agriculture to urban areas in Indonesia has adopted GEE and IA approaches simultaneously. Therefore, this study aims to monitor urban penetration to agricultural land in the north coastal region of West Java Province by applying both methods to two time intervals: 2003–2013 and 2013–2020. Landsat data and a robust random forest (RF) classifier available in GEE were chosen for producing LULC maps. Monitoring LULC change using GEE and IA has demonstrated reliable findings. The overall accuracy of Landsat image classification results for 2003, 2013, and 2020 were 88%, 87%, and 88%, respectively. IA outputs at interval levels for all categories showed that the annual change-of-area rate was higher during 2013–2020 than during 2003–2013. At the category level, IA results showed that the area of agricultural land experienced net losses in both periods, with net loss in 2013–2020 being 2.3 times greater than that in 2003–2013 (∼1,850 ha per year). In contrast, the built-up area made net gains in both periods, reaching almost twice as much in the second period as in the first (∼2,030 ha per year). The transition-level IA performed proved that agricultural land had been the primary target for the expansion of built-up areas. The most extensive spatial distribution of land conversion from agriculture to built-up area was concentrated in the regencies of Bekasi, Karawang, and Cirebon. These findings are intended to provide stakeholders with enrichment in terms of available literature and with valuable inputs useful for identifying better urban and regional planning policies in Indonesia and similar regions.
