Population growth is a problem that can lead to the conservation of agricultural land. This can result in increasing population pressure on agricultural land. The purpose of this study was to determine the condition of population pressure and environmental carrying capacity (ECC) on agricultural land in Lampung Province 2020. This province was chosen because it has the highest urbanization rate on Sumatera Island at 6.5% in 2015. Lampung also has the highest population density on Sumatera Island at 244 people/km in 2019. Data were collected through secondary sources and calculated using environmental carrying capacity (ECC) calculations. Then the resulting data were analyzed using quantitative descriptive methods. The results showed that the area with the highest agricultural land area was Lampung Barat at 14685.71 Ha and the lowest area was Metro at 2895.28 Ha. The minimum land area for decent living or the widest z value is in Metro Regency with a value of 0.448 and the narrowest is 0.178 Lampung Barat Regency. The results of the population pressure (Pp) model I show that the areas of Lampung Barat, Mesuji, Tulang Bawang Barat, and the Pesisir Barat are suitable for agriculture. Model II has two additional regions, namely Tulang Bawang and Way Kanan. However, on the assumption of model III with sharecropping of sharecroppers and the non-agricultural sector, the area that is friendly to the agricultural sector is only in Bandar Lampung and Pesisir Barat. The results of the calculation show that the area with the highest environmental carrying capacity (ECC) is the Pesisir Barat and the lowest is the Lampung Tengah region.
The spread of the highly infectious COVID-19 has severely impacted the global community. Population density and intense physical interaction are the catalysts of the virus spread. Many regulations were issued to halt the spread of the virus, including the limitation of people’s mobility and physical interaction. With the limitation of mobility and physical interaction, many people with disabilities are struggling to access their needs since they depend on their caregivers. The lack of inclusive policies in the health system itself also ends up deprioritizing the disabled. This article aims to identify the correlation between physical disability and COVID-19 cases and identify the spatial distribution of the correlation in Sleman regency, Indonesia. This article presents the correlation with the qualitative approach using Pearson product-moment correlation method. The data used in this article is secondary data obtained from official government agencies. The findings of this study showed that Pearson correlation between physical disability and COVID-19 cases is 0,04346 and classified as very low positive.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
