Analysis of the Carrying Capacity of Agricultural Land in Supporting Sustainable Food Security in Tolitoli Regency, Central Sulawesi Province

The increase in the population growth rate of 1.05 percent per year in Tolitoli Regency is certainly positively proportional to the demand for food, but whether the availability of food can meet the rate of population growth every year, while the availability of agricultural land cannot be ensured to be available in increasing food production. For this reason, it is necessary to know whether the available land resource capacity is able or not to support a large number of basic needs of the community. The purpose of this study is to analyze the carrying capacity of agricultural land in supporting sustainable food security in Tolitoli Regency, Central Sulawesi Province. Based on proportional sampling, 250 respondents were obtained using the formula proposed by Toro Yamane, from the village sample, for the village sample, determined based on the multistage random sampling technique. The analysis of the carrying capacity of agricultural land put forward by Muta’ali was used to answer the research objectives, based on secondary data on land area, population population, minimum physical needs and average land production per hectare and field surveys, the results of the analysis showed that the carrying capacity of agricultural land in Tolitoli Regency in aggregate was at an indicator above the value of 1 or 28.97 which means that Tolitoli Regency is able to achieve food self-sufficiency, or in other words, the number of people is below the optimal population.
