Assessing the Potential for an Agro-GeoHydroPark in Gedangrejo: An Integrated Geological and Agricultural Study

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the potential of Gedangrejo, located in Karangmojo district, Gunung Kidul regency, Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia, for agro-geohydropark development. Employing a comprehensive geological analysis, which included assessing geomorphological, lithological, and structures alongside hydrogeological conditions, also focused on evaluation water sources agricultural potential. falls within Baturagung subzone Southern Mountains zone, presents unique amalgamation undulating plains, hills, karst alluvium deposits with formations belonging Semilir, Oyo, Wonosari. Geological constituted by joints faults, including three horizontal faults Northeast-Southwest orientation, were noted. The hydrogeology uncovered two aquifer systems, Semilir fissured inter-grain controlling Embung. In terms viability, area exhibits fertile land capable supporting ornamental fruit plants, presenting fruit-picking tourism. Therefore, findings suggest that Gedangrejo region holds substantial development as an agro-geohydropark, implying sustainable economic upliftment local community through prudent utilization natural resources wisdom.
