Abstract

Overpopulation is still a big deal for every developing countries because it can lead to massive competition among societies in order to access education, occupation and health. Indonesia, one of the biggest population countries, 4th world population, are facing many challenges related to massive population. This study tries to analyze how population pressure influence the agricultural areas by scoring each parameter to gain population pressure value and the data was taken by observing all parameters. The result shows that the land use in Takalar Regency consisted of residents, rice fields, dry field and wetland. Over six years, agricultural areas declined from 2.253,12 to 2.215,7 and converted to built-up areas while population increased from 37.747 to 40.012. Furthermore, declining the agricultural areas and increasing population make the population pressure getting worse. As a result, only 2 villages of total 14 villages are able to fulfill their basic need while there are 12 villages unable to fulfill their basic needs due to declining the agricultural areas so that the food security becomes big issue.
