Abstract

Abstract: The land is an important resource for human survival. Its utilization must be following the capacity of the environment, the resources owned and the ability of the land, or the other words according to the carrying capacity of the environment. This study aims to determine the conditions of actual land use and investigate the class of land capacity in Kotamobagu City of North Sulawesi Province, so the suitability between the class of land capacity and the plan of actual land use and the plan of land use of RTRW can be known, determine whether the environmental carrying capacity is already overcapacity or not, and arrange the land use directive based on the carrying capacity of the land resources environment in Kotamobagu City of North Sulawesi Province. The research method uses a combination of qualitative methods and quantitative methods. The results of the research indicate that the actual use in Kotamobagu City of North Sulawesi Province, in general, 20.38% of the total area is built up, and the rest has not been built. The class of land capacity in Kotamobagu City consist of Class II (75.93%), Class III (11.57%), Class IV (5.33%), Class VI (5.7%), Class VII (0, 59%), and Class VIII (0.91%). The suitability between the class of land capacity and the actual land use is 90.13%. The suitability between the class of land capacity and the plan of land development of RTRW is 95.85%. The status of the environmental carrying capacity of land resources in Kotamobagu City at present is not exceeded since the amount of land availability is still greater than the land needs. Thus, it is recommended that the land use direction be divided into three functions namely, protected area, cultivated area, and limited cultivated area.
