The purpose of this study was to formulate a strategy in planning the development of Arabica coffee plantation areas in Bener Meriah Regency, through the stages of identifying the distribution of coffee plantations, analyzing potential availability and land suitability, analyzing agribusiness systems and analyzing the level of availability of regional facilities and infrastructure. The results of the analysis show that the distribution of Arabica coffee plantations in Bener Meriah Regency reaches an area of 46,167 ha. As for the extensive development of coffee plantations, this district has a suitable land area of 7,401.1 ha. The most dominant land suitability class is N with a height limiting factor with an area of 3,581.92 ha. Farming coffee farmers carried out by farmers is efficient because it has an R/C ratio = 2.
