Whereas, the study of current status of agro-industrial development was conducted with descriptive analysis. Identificationof potential areas was based on the classification of the area using the quartile method,which distinguishes the area (sub-district)into four classes namely very low potential, low potential, medium potential and high potential.After identifying the level of agricultural potential, the current level of agro-industrial development was studied based on selected indicators. Following two sets of analyses, the potential sub-districts have been identified for intensification of agro-industrial development relating to predominant crops. In the study, few sub-districts such as Brondong, Deket and Glagah have high potential for agro-industrial development.Keywords: agricultural potential, predominant crops, agro-industry, development, East Java
