Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Agriculture and Veterinary Science (IOSR-JAVS) - Year 2019, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
There is a strong role of natural resources in driving the economy of South Kalimantan Province, namely mining-quarrying and agriculture. But in 2016-2021 South Kalimantan Province’s Regional MediumTerm Development Plan (Rencana Pembangunan JangkaMenengah Daerah-RPJMD) shows that the government prioritizes the development of agriculture and agro-industry rather than mining. More specifically the agricultural sub-sector is the plantation, which has direct linkage with agro-industry. This study aims to identify the potential of the South Kalimantan region according to the regency/ municipality, so there will be identified as superior and unseeded areas in cultivating the plantation subsector. The next objective is to detect whether there is a business agglomeration in the plantation subsector in South Kalimantan.. This research uses cluster determinant variables, namely variable production of plantations, farmers, height of land, fertile land, and contribution of plantations in GRDP. Cluster analysis with non-hierarchical methods resulted in 3 (three) clusters. The first cluster was characterized as a non-superior area of plantation, consisting of Barito Kuala, Tapin, HSS, HSU, Banjarmasin and Banjarbaru Regencies. Cluster 2 is a superior plantation area, consisting of Kotabaru Regency and Tanah Bumbu. Cluster 3 is a potential plantation area, consisting of Tanah Laut, Banjar, HST, Tabalong and Balangan Regencies.
