Özet:
Agricultural production is the main source of life for humanity. In order to the protection and proper use of agricultural lands are of great importance. İzmir has a high potential in terms of agricultural areas. There are three basin areas within the provincial borders and fertile agricultural areas where the continuity of agricultural production can be ensured. With the effect of urbanization and population growth, the settlements expanded towards agricultural areas. For the correct use, sustainability and efficiency of agricultural lands, the most suitable areas in terms of agricultural production should be analyzed correctly. This study was carried out to determine the most suitable areas for agriculture in İzmir. The study considers a Geographic Information System GIS-based approach. The combination of multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) and GIS can be used in the process of generating solutions for complex planning problems. In the first stage of the study, the criteria were weightlessly overlayed, and a result map was obtained. In the second stage, weights were obtained for each criterion using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Suitability analyzes for the study area were obtained by weighted overlay analysis using GIS. Environmental characteristics, soil characteristics and economic factors were taken into account while performing the suitability analysis for agricultural areas. The same criteria were used for both suitability analyses. As a result of the comparison between the two maps, a resultant map obtained by the weighted overlay method was found to be more reliable, and the results were compared with the current situation. In the current situation comparison, Great Lowland Protection Areas, 1/100000 Scaled Environmental Plan, and Law No. 5403 are discussed. When the comparisons were made, the areas that differed with the current situation were determined. It is seen that the agricultural lands obtained as a result of the suitability analysis are spread over wider areas compared to the current situation.
