Abstract

Abstract. Potential areas for the development of certain commodities can be determined by using the index value of land productivity. This study aims to analyze the land productivity of Campalagian District based on the level of soil fertility for the development of cocoa plants. The quantitative research method uses the Storie equation in determining the value of land productivity index. Determination of observation points based on purposive sampling method. Soil properties determined in the field and in the laboratory, including: slope, effective depth, texture, pH, C-Organic, N-Total, P2O5, CEC, and the number of interchangeable bases. The results of the analysis of the land productivity index of Campalagian Subdistrict are classified as bad to good, with land productivity index values ranging from 13.89 to 51.37, with limiting factors namely slope, effective depth, texture, C-Organic, and N-Total.
