This research aims to formulate a sustainable agricultural spatial innovation for the Development of Agribusiness Places on Palu Riversides. The methods used for this study were field observation, satellite image map observation, and literature review. The results showed that the implementation of sustainable agriculture through the development of agribusiness places in urban areas could take advantage of the open spaces designated as green open space zone on the Palu Riversides, namely the River Green Area which is outside the riparian zone, the river overflow runoff area. To achieve this objective, it requires ability to innovate in spatial planning so that an urban agricultural area that is neatly arranged into an agribusiness places can also be developed into one of the city landmark.

Palu River Area is one of the potential locations for urban agricultural Research on the Development of development in Palu City. Research Agribusiness Places on the Palu Riversides published in mid-2018 has identified the is a continuation of a study on the efforts that need to be made to develop Development of Urban Agricultural urban agriculture potential in this area. The Potential in Palu River Area carried out by results of research by Hamzens and researchers before a tremendous natural Moestopo (2018) resulted possibility to disaster hit Palu City on September 28, develop an integrated urban agricultural 2018. According to Hamzens and area with empirical conditions, namely Moestopo (2018), research on the land consolidation, determining the type of Development of Agricultural Potential in activity, recruiting executors and Palu River Area was initially based on the developing human resources, preparing desire of the Palu City Government to infrastructure and facilities, and sustainable develop Palu City into a Green City and management. the presence of a Special Economic Zone Continuation research was carried in Palu City, which will lead to an increase out in the same year related to the concept in population and food needs for the of extension for urban agricultural 106 development in the Palu river area, activities for Palu City residents, to raise Hamzens (2018). This research, published and increase productivity of the local at the National Seminar on Agribusiness people. This is very important, in order to Development at Udayana University Bali, have their economy activities quickly September 14, 2018, stated that the recover after the disaster, life can develop implementation of urban agricultural for the better, and still have the hope of development in the Palu River Area good life in the future. It requires the requires extension interventions that aim to ability to adapt in economic activities. motivate people to be confident in making Agribusiness is one of the economic decisions for participating and supporting activities with its implementation in the the implementation of urban agricultural upstream sector uses a stretch land, will be development. This study formulates an safer and more sustainable, as in general appropriate extension concept for the the agribusiness-based economy does not implementation of urban agricultural require the presence of multi-storey development, including (1) the concept of buildings. Considering the limitations in extension that can provide broad insights physical development in Palu City, into various agricultural-based economic agribusiness-based economic activity, in activities, (2) the concept of extension this case, cultivation, is thought to be capable of supporting community suitable for the local people. Therefore, an readiness to participate, and (3) extension agribusiness that is carried out sustainably concept capable of providing a complete needs to be considered by all parties, and picture of the various activities that will can be an alternative to driving the take place in an Urban Agricultural Area. economy. The natural disaster suffered Palu Agribusiness activities must be City requires the government and carried out sustainably. This means, it community of Palu to immediately adapt in requires spaces for the perpetrators, the order to be able to move the life order, business places that can ensure including restructuring the economy agribusiness can sustainably take place towards a better future and well planned to from time to time. For this reason, face the disasters. Development carried out potential and suitable places are needed to in Palu City must pay more attention to the carry out and develop agribusiness morphological characteristics of Palu City, activities. To realize a well-ordered which is prone to various threats of natural Agribusiness Places, the Government of Palu City needs to rearrange the layout of disasters. Alternative relocation of Palu City by considering spatial planning residents is something that is still difficult aspects that are suitable for agribusiness to do, this effort is constrained by the activities as a new economic model for availability of land in Palu City and its urban communities. An economic model surroundings, funding, and until now there that is more effective, safe, comfortable, have been no research that confirm the and sustainable. The limitations on the location in Palu City is entirely safe from construction of multi-story buildings are the threat of natural disasters that can take due to the safety aspects, and the place periodically. Physical development, obligation to provide green open space both in the form of infrastructure and the according to existing regulations where at construction of facilities such as buildings, least 30 percent of the city area must be must be done very carefully and must green open space (Law Number 26 Year consider the safety aspects comprehensively 2007 concerning Spatial Plan), is an and sustainably. For this reason, at this opportunity to organize sustainable urban time it is better not to rush to build new agriculture based on agribusiness, by buildings in Palu City. utilizing the green open spaces. On the other hand, it is a priority to For the future rearrangement of Palu develop the daily and future economic City through sustainable urban agriculture 107 based on agribusiness, it is necessary to The research area is on the left and right arrange the spatial of agribusiness places, sides of the Palu Riversides from the south stipulated in the spatial plan. The spatial of the Palu River, which is the borders planning of the Agribusiness Places must between Sigi Regency and the Palu City, be carried out based on the spatial planning towards the north of the Palu River in Palu objectives mandated by Law Number 26 City to the Palu Bay.
