ESTIMASI PRODUKSI PADI MENGGUNAKAN CITRA DAN SISTEM INFORMASI GEOGRAFIS DI KABUPATEN SAMBAS

Abstract

Rice is the primary food source for the people of Indonesia. Food security is viewed as a crucial aspect of a nation's integrity and sovereignty. Food security is a challenge in almost all developing countries with low to middle income levels, including Indonesia. The phenomenon of declining production forms the basis for the need to conduct research to predict/estimate rice crop production. This research was conducted in Sambas Regency, West Kalimantan, in 2024 with the aim of estimating rice crop production using satellite imagery technology and geographic information systems in Sambas Regency. The image data was obtained from Landsat 8 satellite recordings in the form of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), combined with Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and processed using the QGIS 3.36.3 application. The analysis results conducted in 14 districts showed that the average rice production in Sambas Regency in 2024 was 2.8 tons.
