Mount Arjuna is a mountainous area with forests and several cultivated plants located in Malang Regency, East Java. The forest is a complex area that is used as a protected area, research and production forest for agricultural commodities. The complex is located in the forest resulted in highly varied environmental conditions. The forest consists of several areas, namely protected forest, production forest, coffee plantation, and seasonal plantations. The Arjuna mountain area has several stands including pine and mahogany, but most of it is filled with pines by 90% and mahogany trees around 10%. Most of the coffee plants found in the Arjuna mountain forest area are Arabica coffee, while the rest is robusta coffee. This research was conducted on the slopes of Mount Arjuna, located in Sumbersari Village, Karangploso District, Malang Regency, East Java. This research was conducted from July to October 2017. This research employed a survey method by taking several sample points that represent the coffee plants in the area. Several sampling plots for land suitability analysis were identified in the area: The observation stages were carried out by taking air temperature data using a thermohygrometer by taking the minimum and maximum temperature data, taking air humidity using a thermohigrometer as well as minimum and maximum data and light intensity data using lux meters, taking soil samples to measure nutrients and soil fertility, and measuring the height and slope of the land. The results of the observations that have been made will be analyzed using the land suitability analysis method, by adjusting the area's data with the land suitability level for robusta and arabica coffee plants.Gunung Arjuna merupakan kawasan pegunungan dengan hutan serta beberapa tanaman budidaya yang terletak di Kabupaten Malang, Jawa Timur. Hutan tersebut merupakan kawasan kompleks yang dimanfaatkan sebagai kawasan lindung, riset dan juga hutan produksi untuk komoditas pertanian. Kondisi hutan yang kompleks mengakibatkan kondisi lingkungan tersebut sangat bervariatif. Hutan terdiri dari beberapa kawasanya, yaitu hutan lindung, hutan produksi, perkebunan kopi serta kawasan tanaman semusim. Kawasan gunung Arjuna memiliki beberapa tegakan diantaranya pinus dan mahoni namun sebagian besar dipenuhi oleh pinus sebesar 90% dan pohon mahoni berkisar 10%. Sebagian besar tanaman kopi yang terdapat pada kawasan hutan gunung Arjuna adalah jenis kopi arabika sedangkan sisanya adalah kopi robusta. Penelitian ini dilakukan di kawasan lereng Gunung Arjuna, Terletak di Desa Sumbersari, Kecamatan Karangploso, Kabupaten Malang, Jawa Timur. Penelitian ini akan dilaksanakan pada bulan Juli–Oktober 2017. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode survei dengan mengambil beberapa titik sampel yang mewakili yang mewakili tanaman kopi di kawasan tesebut. Beberapa plot sampel pengambilan sampel untuk analisis kesesuaian lahan diidentifikasi pada kawasan: Adapun tahapan pengamatan yang dilakukanya itu pengambilan data suhu udara menggunakan termohigrometer dengan mengambil data suhu minimum dan maksimum, pengambilan kelembapan udara dengan alat termohigrometer juga data minimum dan maksimum serta data intensitas cahaya menggunakan lux meter, pengambilan sampel tanah untuk mengukur hara serta kesuburan tanah, mengukur ketinggian serta tingkat kelerengan lahan. Hasil pengamatan yang telah dilakukan akan dianalisis menggunakan metode analisis kesesuaian lahan, dengan menyesuaikan data kawasan tersebut dengan tingkat kesesuaian lahan untuk tanaman kopi robusta dan arabika.
