dc.description.abstract | Wrong land use is one of the major causes of climate change. Agricultural land is one of the areas where the wrong land use decisions are made most. In this study, an ecology-based method has been developed to determine and mapping suitable agricultural land use. The study was conducted in Duzce city. In the study, GIS-based multi-criterion decision making method was used to determine suitable agriculture lands. In this process, first of all, criteria for determining the agriculturally suitable areas were determined and scored; these scores processed into the database of the relevant maps; finally, the maps were subjected to overlay analysis and a suitable agricultural area map was obtained. In this study, 11 criteria were evaluated in terms of agricultural suitability. Results show that 28% of the area have very high agricultural suitability, 6% is high, 18% is medium, 45% is low, and 3% has very low suitability. In addition, when suitable agricultural land map is evaluated, it is seen that urbanisation is spreading in areas suitable for agriculture. In addition, agricultural areas spread to areas with low agricultural value. This contributes to climate change. The way to reduce this contribution is to carry out agricultural activities in appropriate areas. | en_US |
