Abstract

The increasing population in Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia require residential land. Excessive use of housing land reduces agricultural lands will impact environmental changes surrounding area. Limitations of use of agricultural land due to the construction of housing in need of good quality soil in increasing food production. This study aims to determine the value of the damage of Land For Biomass Production to reduce the environmental changes surrounding area. The method used in the form of land damage mapping biomass production. Variable ground damage assessment status of each parameter is done by weighting and scoring methods. The results showed that the status of land degradation in the District Paiton is the status of damaged land with an area of 3922.74 hectares of land and/or land for biomass production with an area of 147,234.60 hectares, or approximately 2.66% of the total area of the District Paiton. The area of a degraded land category is at the Village Bhinor, Jabung comb, middle Alas, Kalijajar wetan and Plampang.
