Abstract
Farm land conversion in in Sleman agglomeration raises significantly, about 42 hectares in three
years, between 2011 and 2013 only. This particular issue occurs mostly in 9 villages under subdistrict (desa), all included administratively in the border of Sleman regency, which
geographically reside near city of Yogyakarta on its lower landscape. This special topography
condition provides passive opportunity for lands in this sub-districts to be converted from
farming into commercial purposes. Starting from the point of land conversion, and Land and
Building Tax Imposition Base (NJOP) in farming sector, this paper highlights correlation formed
between NJOP base-rate measurement- Transaction Value and Land Conversion (in hectares)
over farming lands in Sleman.
This research took place in Sleman agglomeration, which consists of five sub-districts
(kecamatan) and nine villages: Kecamatan Depok (Desa Maguwoharjo, Condongcatur,
Caturtunggal, and Maguwoharjo); Kecamatan Mlati (Desa Sinduadi, Sendangadi); Kecamatan
Ngaglik (Desa Sariharjo); Kecamatan Godean (Desa Sidoarum); and Kecamatan Gamping
(DesaTrihanggo and DesaNogotirto). A quantitative approach is used, based on statistical
analysis Pearsons Correlation test and Hansens Gravity Model. These two instruments will
help us to analyze and measure the land conversion from 2011 to 2013, with a handful mapoverlaying technique.
Analysis will help us to understand the main problem, which is how the correlations happen
between NJOP and Transactional Value, and farm land conversion, also correlation between this
land conversion and strategic zones, areas with highest gravity effects on population density
and differences of living needs. This will result answers on how significant these variables
correlate each other, how land conversion is strictly derived from distance-to-gravity-center
issues, and how NJOP will control the land conversion in the future.

1. Introduction
Land conversion occurred massively
in Sleman agglomeration, the largest
administrative regency in Special Region
of Yogyakarta, during 2000 until 2010.
The trigger of this particular issue is
presumably a rapid growth of business in
property and real estate. Unfortunately,
this rapid growth in responding
urbanization demands on private houses
and new living space near the city, forces
some land owners to release their land
previously used to grow crops or rice to
be converted in commercial area.
In last five years only, there have
been
10
commercial
buildings
(condominium-hotel, apartment, stores,
mal and houses) built on lands that were
formerly rice fields. Rice fields are
favorite because its price per meter is
relatively lower than any other kind of
land use. This farm land conversion
happen almost entire parts of Sleman,
which reside near city borders, has
triggered land tax and market value to
grow wildly.
Tax rate for lands located in area
with higher gravity can grow above
Rp.1.000.000 m/year. Government have
proclaimed their policies regarding this
problem by a set of rules, including Perda
No. 11 Tahun 2012 (PBB Perkotaan dan
Pedesaan), a tool that is said to save farm
lands 21.113 acres in large area. This
roadmap targets to conserve:
a. 0,01%
sustainable
farmland
(including rice fields, multi-crop
agricultures (palawija), and lands in
national conservation zones

b. How correlation formed between

Agglomeration Sleman?
2. Relevant Literature
Two biggest factors affecting land
conversions in Sleman come from: 1)
external and 2) internal aspects. For external,
high population growth demands more
spaces while on the other hand, this include a
strong set of rules ratified by the government.
Economical motives clearly explained
by (Isa: 2004) described that high land rent
occupied from non-agricultural sector has
been compared to those taken from farming
sectors. Lower incentives in farming,
combined with high production cost and low
prices and crops have been long became
strong motives to sell lands, even when the
land prices is in wild dynamics.
These economical factors span on the
same line with Von Thunnens theory on
land rent, saying that farming activity
intensity will decrease if the farm land is in a
close distance to city center. In contrast to
this hypothesis, Alonsos theory proclaimed
that there was only one city center, with the
highest population density, with highest
promise of living standards.

7. Recommendations
Farmland conversions in Sleman
have raised significantly during 2011 to
2013, and have not yet meet a resolution
on how a proper instrument should be
used to control its high rate. A rigid land
control scheme was ratified, but the issue
remains hot because the conversion is
keeping on its own direction and the tax
regulation goes some other ways. As a
conclusion and recommendations resulted
from this study, we offer some findings
that might be helpful regarding how to
minimize the possible impacts of land
conversion and the worrying decrease of
farm lands. We recommend the Sleman
district authority to:
a) Tighten mechanisms of obtaining a
farmland for commercial use,
applying a comprehensive terms and
conditions of land owning and
selling, by considering all aspects to
maximize land use for productive
farming. A strict standard of land
trading should be mandatory to
prevent land conversion with only
economic motives.
b) Coordinate and map all policies in a
structured and measurable scheme to
rule all sectors to protect farmlands
from unregulated buying and selling.
Land prices per meter should be
ruled, not just based on how
demands are formed in the
commercial markets.
c) Make a new set of rules to control
land owning and its terms, policies
for new residents and their
ownership rights, as good as new
incentive schemes for farmers who
productive
