Different sets of parameters were employed under biophysical, soci...al-economic, and climatic factors, moreover multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach through pairwise comparisons and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was particularly utilized to derive the suitability ratings per parameters taken from the experts. With that, four suitability classes were used to categorize suitability: High, Moderate, Low, and Not Suitable. Results showed that Butuan City with a total area of 66, 490.13 hectares (ha) has an overall suitable area of 61, 964.11 ha. Additionally, 13,780.98 hectares (20.73%), 29,606.67 hectares (44.53%), and 18,331.84 hectares (27.57%) were rated high, moderate, and low suitability, respectively. The remaining areas consisting of 4,770.64 ha (7.17%) were the areas unsuitable for farming.
