Abstract

The current research aims to study the spatial relationship between geographical factors represented by natural and human factors in agricultural land uses, which play a major role in determining the type of agricultural use and the type of crop, especially climatic factors, given that the study area has suitable climatic conditions of water, temperatures, sunlight and good soil suitable for agriculture. We find that it is suitable for growing most agricultural crops from fruits, vegetables and grains. By classifying the land cover based on the Land sat satellite image captured on 15/5/2022, we find that the largest area of the study area of land uses is pastures, amounting to (664.95) km2, followed by agricultural crops, amounting to (331.95) km2, then the rest of the uses. The spatial correlation between geographical factors and agricultural land uses was extracted, and three categories were reached: lands with a good relationship, lands with a medium relationship, and lands with a weak relationship. The last category is considered the largest in the study area and constitutes a percentage of ( 38.87 )% of the total area of the study area, followed by the first category of well-relevant lands, which constitute (37.92)% of the total area of the study area, followed by lands with medium relevance, which constitute (23.21)% of the study area.
