Spatial approach for agritourism landscape planning in Winongan-Gondang Wetan, Pasuruan

The Winongan and Gondang Wetan (WGW) sub-districts in the downstream area of the Rejoso watershed in Pasuruan are characterized by predominantly agricultural land. The World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) initiated a conservation program in this region called Rejoso Kita during 2016-2022. This program is designed to enhance current agricultural practices through sustainable methodologies tha effectively introduced in 12 villages. Initial outcomes indicate these villages hold potential for development into agritourism destinations, emphasizing educational, recreational, and landscape preservation components. This study aims to evaluate the area’s suitability for agritourism, focusing on sustainability through specific zoning. By applying a spatial approach with a scoring and weighting methodology, the study determined that Gading, Lebak, and Tenggilis Rejo are the villages with the highest potential for agritourism. As a result, they have been designated as primary agritourism zones. Conversely, villages with moderate to low potential will serve as supporting and buffer zones.
