Land potential for sugarcane production is generally
classified as spatial information directly derived from various sources of information which affect
plant growth and yield. These include climatic, landform and soil information which vary both in
terms of intensity and quantity with area. These information could be altogether processed to
determine suitability classes for su garcane growing of the land in a given area. Geo-informatic
technology which at present, embodies Geographic Information System(GIS), Remote Sensing(RS)
and Global Positioning System(GPS ) has been further developed to provide greater efficiency. In
particular, GIS has been used extensively for spa tial analysis and land suitability as GIS functions
could be employed for several forms of information including point, line and area.
