Population pressure is important indicator in watershed management, in this case is catchment area of Batutegi Reservoir. Population pressure came from villages around it. The highly of population pressure indicated a high potential for land use conflicts that will potentially penetrate the surrounding area, including catchment area. Population and availability of agricultural land are the main factors of population pressure. Population projections and land use mapping in the analysis of population pressure in villages within the catchment area shows that there are 7 (seven) villages in the catchment area, they are Sinar Jawa, Datar Lebuay, Margo Mulyo, Air Naningan, Air Kubang, Sinar Sekampung, and Batutegi. Air Kubang, Air Naningan, and Sinar Sekampung are known with population pressure more than 3 (very bad in population pressure). The three villages must be the priority of controlling population pressure which can be done through intensification of agriculture, increasing creative economic efforts, industrial processing of agricultural products at household scale, and controlling spatial land use through Regional Regulations.
