Abstrakt: Sago (Metroxylon spp.) naturally spreads in almost every island in Indonesia, with the most significant area concentrated in Papua. Sago plants are very potent as a source of starch. The productivity of dry sago starch can reach 25 tons/ha. This research aims to analyze sago starch's distribution and chemical content in several varieties in Tandia, Rasiey District, Wasior Regency and Serewen, Poom District, North Yapen Islands Regency. The method used to determine the spatial distribution pattern of this species was a Dispersion Index (ID) statistical completion tool, while for the analysis of the chemical content of sago starch, sago samples were taken in tree trunks divided into five parts. Each part cut into circular stems with respective sizes, 15 cm each and weighed. Each part was taken 1/8 to be weighed. The results of the analysis show that the distribution of sago in the two research locations is categorized in a clustered distribution pattern because the calculated X2 value was greater than the table X2. In contrast, the analysis of the chemical content of sago starch from the two research locations had different values between the compositions of one another. The highest carbohydrate content of sago starch, amylose and amylopectin were in the Noiin variety from Serewen. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
