In the field of agriculture in Indonesia, there are forms or types of plants, one of which is food crops. Currently, the food crops that develop in Bandar Kwala village are rice, corn, peanuts, and cassava. So that there is competition for nutrient absorption between plants and many types of plant-disturbing organisms that appear and cause farmers to experience crop failure, the selling price in the market is not proportional to the price of the seeds they buy and the care they do. For each type of plant that is planted, it is necessary to pay attention to the factors that affect the growth of a plant, one of which is land management, seeding, fertilization and pest control. The purpose of this research is to apply the SMARTER method to get the ranking of plants suitable for planting on agricultural land in Bandar Kwala village based on food crop criteria.
