Abstract

This research was conducted to see how variations in population pressure on paddy fields, variations in the carrying capacity of paddy fields and to determine the optimum population size in Batipuh District. This type of research is descriptive quantitative. This research was conducted in Batipuh District, carried out from September to October 2020. The data analysis technique was obtained through the analytical tool used to calculate population pressure using Prof. formula. Otto Soemarwoto model II. The results showed that Batipuh District had experienced population pressure (TP <1). The highest value of population pressure in Batipuh District was in the village of Bungo Tanjung (106.8), while the lowest value was in the village of Sabu (39.9). The results of the analysis of the carrying capacity of the land show that there are 5 villages that are able to meet the food needs of their residents properly, namely Andaleh, Sabu, Batipuh Baruah, Pitalah, Bungo Tanjung. There are 2 nagari that are in class II classification, namely the Batipuh Ateh village and the Gunung Rajo village.
