Abstract
Start Land degradation consequence utilization inappropriate causes depreciation watershed performance. the importance of using land for conservation and cultivation requires wise handling. Tobacco gives good impact to conservation and beneficial to cultivate. Therefore, evaluation of land for tobacco is important. The purpose of this research is to determines land evaluation for tobacco plants at lombok island with divider rainfall, land slope, temperature and soil depth with geographic information system. The results of the land evaluation analysis show that 0% S1 (highly suitable), 32.2% S2 (moderatly suitable), 66.4% S3 (marginally suitable) and 0.4% (not suitable). With that result tobacco plants cultivation as land conservation can be developed in lombok island.
