Abstract

National corn production continues significantly increased, ranging from 9,347,192 tons to 19,611,704 tons. The highest corn production in East Java Province with an average production of 3,525,913.467 tons with productivity of 4.112 tons/ha. Meanwhile, the average corn production in Banten Province is 20,559.533 tons, with productivity of 3.033 tons/ha. An analysis of climate and land-based potential was carried out, while regression analysis was used to determine the corn production trend. The temperature analysis results showed that of the four districts, only South Tangerang City was not suitable for corn plants. Meanwhile, according to the analysis of production, the average corn production in Banten Province amounted to 20,559.53 tons of harvested area of 12,534 ha. The regression analysis results, with the harvested area obtained by corn production, amounted to 32,773.485 tons. It shows that corn production in Banten Province only reached 62.73%. Therefore, a change in the planting period is required to achieve ideal corn production. Based on the rainfall analysis results, corn’s planting period in Banten Province was three times, namely in January, June, and September. Furthermore, the optimal area to increase corn land in Pandeglang and Lebak districts. Through the maximum planting, corn production will increase in Banten Province.
