Determination of agricultural land suitability with a multiple-criteria decision-making method in Northwestern Turkey

Abstract: This study was carried out in the district of Lapseki in Çanakkale, Turkey. The suitability of land in Lapseki for agriculture was evaluated by using an analytic hierarchy process. In the study, the basic parameters were determined by using the soil map and the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission data. Land use capability classes, soil depth, erosion risk and other soil properties (limiting factors) were obtained from the soil map, while slope, elevation and aspect were obtained from the Shuttle Radar Topography … Show more

“…Thus, the steeper or greater the percentage of the slope, the worse the land suitability value for cassava varieties of Jarak Towo. Everest et al [42] using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) scoring method where slopes with a percentage of 0-2% get a score of 10, while a slope above 30% gets a 1 score. So, it concludes that the flatter the area, the higher the score, and vice versa.…”

“…In order to assign weights in the FRI system, numerous MCDA methods can be applied. For example, AHP [ 6 ] is a kind of MCDA method that uses pairwise comparisons of criteria in the comparison matrix to determine which one is more important [ 11 ] in a hierarchical system [ 23 ]; then the weights are obtained by solving the eigenvalue and eigenvector problem for the comparison matrix. TOPSIS [ 7 , 8 ] is a MCDA method that compares the geometric distance (e.g., Euclidean distance) among each alternative and the ideal alternatives; the chosen alternative should have the minimal geometric distance from the positive ideal solution and the maximal geometric distance from the negative ideal one.…”
