Farmers cultivate potatoes intensively in the upper Lembang watershed, i.e. cultivate the land every planting season. The soil management system does not apply soil conservation methods, so it is suspected that there has been a decline in soil fertility. The purpose of this study was to examine the soil properties of potato farming in several land forms. The method used is the land survey method. Soil sampling was done by purposive random sampling and descriptive. Soil samples taken were disturbed soil samples for analysis of soil physical properties (texture, bulk density, total pore space, permeability) while direct measurements in the field were effective soil depth and infiltration rate. Meanwhile, undisturbed soil samples were used to analyze the chemical properties of C-organic soil. Soil analysis was carried out in the laboratory of the Department of Soil, Faculty of Agriculture, Andalas University. To determine the soil characteristics of the landform is to analyze the soil parameters using Minitab 17 software. The results showed that the value of soil erodibility in the production center area is strongly influenced by c-organic variables, dust, bulk density, total pore space, fine sand fraction, fraction clay and soil permeability. The value of soil erodibility includes low to moderate criteria. It was concluded that the soil condition was still quite good.
