| dc.description.abstract | Geographic Information System (GIS) technique is a powerful tool that can provide in terms of agricultural planning of an area for land use suitability. Land suitability is an assessment of an area to determine how proper or appropriate it is for a particular use of the land in a particular location. The factors considered during land suitability assessment are slope, temperature, rainfall, soil texture and landcover. Based on the suitability map of onion and garlic in Concepcion, Tarlac which was overlay and generated from five (5) criteria factors layers, slope, soil texture. rainfall, temperature, landcover and petitioned into four (4) classes namely, not suitable, moderately suitable, suitable and highly suitable. The result from the different factors shows that the site suitability analysis for onion production revealed that 88.00 ha of land area is highly suitable, 2,209.00 ha of agricultural land is suitable, 18,644.00 ha of the land area is moderately suitable, and 88.00 ha of the land area is not suitable (buildups). For garlic production, the site suitability analysis shows that 2,297.36 ha of the land area is highly suitable, 18,378.88 has of agricultural land is suitable, 265.08 ha of the land area is moderately suitable and 88.36 ha of the land area is not suitable (buildups). | |
