Semen – Southern Kediri's Highland Between Wilis and Kelud Volcanic Ranges
Semen is a southern Kediri highland district positioned in the elevated zone between the Wilis mountain to the west and the Kelud volcano to the east, in the highland agricultural corridor that benefits from both volcanic systems' soil fertility. The district's higher elevation supports coffee, cloves and mixed highland horticulture that complement the lowland tobacco and rice of the plain districts. The volcanic soils from both the Wilis and Kelud systems contribute to the agricultural fertility. The Blitar border approach is accessible from the southern highland, creating economic interaction with the southern neighbor regency. The highland setting with its cooler climate, volcanic scenery and productive agriculture creates a more diverse environment than the flat plain districts.
