Nagari is located in a sloping hill area with relatively good forest cover. However, today's environmental conditions in Nagari Lubuk Karak are constantly facing various threats that can damage the sustainability of the ecosystem, which are often caused by economic factors.

This can be done by integrating reforestation activities using tree seeds that have economic value while at the same time intensifying rice cultivation owned by farmers by implementing the jajar legowo cropping system.
