AbstractFood security becomes an aspect that needs to be considered, especially when the population and degradation of agricultural land are increasing. Many variables that affect the measurement of the food security index, and what is often used is the availability, affordability, and utilization of food. This study aims to determine the effect of food availability, affordability, and utilization variables on the food security index. This study uses a correlational design and multiple regression analysis techniques. All regions in Central Java Province were the objects of this study, there are 35 districts/cities. The results from this study showed that the three variables did not significantly influence the increase of the food security index. The result shows that the current food security index has been influenced by other variables.  Therefore, the government needs to examine more closely the new variables that affect the food security index in order to develop a strategy to improve the food security index in Central Java Province, especially in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0. Keywords: Food Security Index; Food Affordability; Food Availability; Food Utilization

The implementation of the fiscal decentralization concept in Indonesia has completed with the issuance of the Village Law and Village Fund Program. Nevertheless, some problems arose in the application. This study aims to map the issues and to build a relationship model based on institutional theory, using content analysis and triangle approach interviews. The study concludes that the Village Fund is profoundly affected by the coercive element that is sourced from the authority of the government to regulate and supervise the program. The coercive then influence the normative in which the regulation frame and strict implementation lead to the difficulties to fulfill the administrative requirements. It then affects the cognitive element on how to make sustain and executable planning of the Village Fund Program, which leads to poor planning, so that difficult to be executed. As it is mandatory, the program is still run improvised that makes the output utilization was low.

Bangladesh is the most densely populated country in the world. With a total population of around 165 million, the country has constantly been facing food security challenges and other problems. Therefore, increasing food production is one of the feasible solutions to this challenge, and proper agricultural land use for food production bears critical importance. Adopting sustainable irrigation systems and viable technologies would be vital for ensuring efficient use of agricultural land in Bangladesh to safeguard the country's food security. Solar irrigation pumps (SIPs) can be a reliable option in this regard. However, Bangladesh has experienced a prolonged growth rate of SIP installation in the last decade.  The countryhas set a target to install 10000 SIPs by the year 2027, albeit it is a tiny share of the 1.57 million conventional irrigation pumps operating in the country. This study aims to investigate the economic feasibility of the SIPs operating in the northern region of Bangladesh in terms of estimating financial feasibility and environmental benefits. The study is mainly based on primary data collected from the users of SIPs from two Upazilas of Dinajpur and Rangpur districts. A total of 14 SIPs, categorized into large, medium, and small pumps, are selected randomly from the available SIPs in the study areas. The financial analysis reveals that small SIPs are the most profitable option (20% IRR) for investment. Large SIPs are moderately profitable (10% IRR), and their profitability can be improved (10.50% IRR) by introducing additional uses of solar energy. However, medium SIPs are the worst (5% IRR) option for investment. In the study areas, large and medium SIPs are designed for the 'fees for service model', and small SIPs are designed for the 'fees for ownership model'. It is found that the 'fees for ownership model' is more profitable than the 'fees for service model'. Moreover, the net environmental benefit for all SIPs is found almost equal to the given subsidy for installing them. Also, the net environmental benefit per kilowatt peak (kWp) is highest for the small SIPs. This paper recommends that additional use (e.g., husking, grinding, supply excess electricity to grid, and so on) of solar energy can improve the profitability of investmenton SIPs. Further, the government should continue giving grants for installing SIPs and promote 'fees for ownership model' (small SIPs) for personal use. It would speed up the dissemination rate of SIPs and help increase the country's agricultural production and improve the environmental conditions.

Purpose The paper presents food and nutritional status and relevant policy objectives that can sustain food security in Cambodia. This paper aims to review Cambodia’s food security situation over a period. Design/methodology/approach The paper provides an approach for selecting food security indicators in relation to both inputs and outcomes by drawing on a conceptual framework. National level data for the food security indicators are analysed over a period to provide trends in food and nutritional status. Findings Cambodia has not experienced drastic food insecurity yet, as most people are farmers and their livelihoods dependent on agriculture. Agriculture has maintained food availability in the country; however, there is a proportion of the population living in remote areas unable to obtain sufficient, safe, nutritious food. Landlessness, internal migration, rapid population growth, lack of education and skills, limited access to natural resources and agricultural land, poor health and infrastructure leave the people with inadequate employment opportunities, low capabilities and low productivity which in turn bring deeper poverty. Therefore, people are insecure, excluded and vulnerable to food deprivation. Practical implications To tackle the food security challenges, the Government of Cambodia focuses on food-based social safety nets in the sectors of education, nutrition and productive assets/livelihoods support, to enable longer-term, nationally owned food security solutions. Originality/value The paper draws conclusions using a range of recently proposed food security indicators and offers a perspective for policy formulation which may be of interest to development scholars and practitioners.

Health is one of the important factors in the success of the economic development in a country. The Government has managed the health budgets of at least ten percent of the total of the available local government budget. However, the amount of health budget has not been balanced yet by the optimal achievement of health status. This research aims at analyzing the technical efficiency level of the expenditure cost and the health service system and the target of improvement in order to achieve the efficiency in Central Java province in 2012-2014. This research uses Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method that will yield a relative efficiency value. The research uses health budget as the input variable, uses facilities and health services as the intermediate output variable, and uses the health status as the outcome variable. The assumption used is: Variable Return to Scale (VRS) and the output oriented model. The results of research that use the DEA method show that with the cost technical efficiency there are only five regencies/cities (14.3%) that have achieved an efficiency of 100 percent. While with the system technical efficiency there are only eleven regencies/cities (31.4%) that have achieved an efficient condition. This means, most regencies/cities in Central Java Province have not still efficient yet in the use of expenditure of health sector budget.
