Indonesia is one of the largest agricultural countries in Southeast Asia, but it is also struggling with food security issues. The government's challenge is to ensure that domestic food needs are fulfilled. The covid-19 pandemic exacerbated this challenge, where countries faced the threat of food shortages due to limited movement of goods. Thus, Indonesia should focus on increasing the production and productivity of strategic food commodities. One of the alternative solutions is through the transmigration program. This research focused on how the transmigration program can contribute to food security. The study was carried out through a descriptive qualitative method. The result shows that transmigration contributes to food security because of its similarity to the food production process. However, this program faces five main challenges to support food security. Therefore, this study shows several pre-conditions that the government needs to fulfill to overcome these challenges.

Food commodities have been used worldwide for both human consumption and energy, amid concerns of environmental degradation and damaging effects on local food systems. Presently, strategies of rural development have encompassed the use of green resources to produce biofuels and an agenda of food security. We argue that by the strengthening of a Sectorial System of Production and Innovation involving farming activity, industrial transformation and institutional support, production for food and for energy can be balanced. Our discussion contributes to the resolution of the potential conflict between agro-energy and food production and the role of public policies in stimulating second-generation ethanol based on remaining biomass. Based on the current literature and empirical evidences, the prospects for sugarcane ethanol in Brazil are examined, bearing in mind the development of a system able to produce second-generation ethanol, as a strategy able to mitigate negative effects on food security.

Urbanisation has given significant impact to various sectors, particularly in agriculture. Essentially, agricultural production activities depend heavily on land resources. At the same time, land is also needed as vital resources for the country development. Despite of the initiative of urbanism to better the country development process, it has raised concern among the land administrator regarding the status of the national’s food security. Food security has been threatened by the needs of the physical development due to urbanisation. Therefore, this article attempts to study the impact of urbanisation on the agriculture sector and examined the role of urbanism to safeguard the land resources for food security purposes. It is hope that, this article will form an inclusive understanding regarding the idea of urbanism in pursuing the betterment of an economic progress without compromising the needs for the national food security.

<p><strong>English</strong><br />Food security remains as a fundamental problem in most countries along with population increase, purchasing power improvement, and climate change. To support national food security, it is necessary to implement it at the households’ level such as farming on backyard land (pekarangan) areas. This paper aims to review the potencies, policies and programs, as well as constraints related with use of backyard land in supporting food security at households’ level. Backyard land is potential for farming in order to supply family food needs, especially vegetables, to reduce household food expenditure, and to increase the household income. Some constrains are found in backyard farming, such as less intensive cultivation, not a core business, lack of specific technology, and less field workers’ of assistance. Support from various stakeholders is necessary in order to improve backyard farming.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Ketahanan pangan akan tetap menjadi permasalahan pokok di sebagian besar negara di dunia seiring dengan semakin besar jumlah penduduk, peningkatan daya beli dan dinamika iklim global. Upaya membangun ketahanan pangan keluarga, salah satunya dapat dilakukan dengan memanfaatkan sumberdaya yang tersedia, diantaranya melalui pemanfaatan lahan pekarangan.Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengulas potensi, kebijakan dan program, serta kendala pemanfaatan lahan pekarangan untuk mendukung ketahanan pangan, terutama di tingkat rumah tangga. Lahan pekarangan memiliki potensi dalam penyediaan bahan pangan keluarga, mengurangi pengeluaran rumah tangga untuk pembelian pangan dan meningkatkan pendapatan rumah tangga petani. Sejumlah kendala terkait masalah sosial, budaya, dan ekonomi masih dijumpai dalam program pemanfaatan  lahan pekarangan, diantaranya belum membudayanya budidaya pekarangan secara intensif, masih bersifat sambilan dan belum berorientasi pasar, kurang tersedianya teknologi budidaya spesifik pekarangan, serta proses pendampingan dari petugas yang belum memadai. Oleh karena itu diperlukan perencanaan yang matang dan dukungan lintas sektoral dalam pemanfaatan lahan pekarangan sehingga mampu lebih optimal dalam mendukung ketahanan pangan.</p>

<strong>English</strong><br />Global financial crisis and climate changes have affected food security in a more vulnerable situation. Food security pillars, in this respect should be strengthened.  The food security pillar should not rely only on quantitative approaches, but also on other pillars in a wider food spectrum. One of the feasible ways to enhance food security is to develop food diversification based on local food commodities. This paper is aimed to assess some vulnerable points of national food security, the significant of the diversification to enhance food availability and its prospect as one of the pillars to develop steady food security in Indonesia.        <br /><br /><br /><strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Krisis finansial global dan perubahan iklim mengakibatkan ketahanan pangan menjadi lebih rawan. Oleh karena itu pilar-pilar ketahanan pangan perlu diperkuat. Pendekatan yang perlu ditempuh adalah mengupayakan agar pilar ketahanan pangan tidak hanya bersandar pada dimensi kuantitatif dalam penyediaan, distribusi, dan daya beli tetapi perlu dilengkapi dengan perluasan spektrum pangan. Salah satu cara yang layak ditempuh adalah dengan mengembangkan diversifikasi berbasis bahan pangan lokal. Tulisan ini membahas titik-titik rawan ketahanan pangan nasional,  menelaah arti penting diversifikasi berbasis bahan pangan lokal, dan prospek diversifikasi sebagai salah satu pilar ketahanan pangan Indonesia.

The role of the agricultural sector as a provider of food and non-food sources is directly related to the 2030 SDGs target of eradicating poverty and hunger. In Kubu Raya, one of the developing areas in the agricultural sector is Rasau Jaya District, with main crops being food crops and vegetables for food security. Agricultural land in Rasau Jaya District is dominated by peatlands with 14,371,392 hectares area. This study aims to determine the form of peatland use into potential land, the role of agriculture as a provider of food and non-food sources, and the form of its use. The method used is remote sensing method and survey method. The results showed that land use in the Rasau Jaya District included rice fields, gardens, fields, moor, yards, settlements, forests, shrubs, water bodies, and vacant land. Food crop agricultural products are used to meet food needs as well as non-food needs such as education and health. Most people use the harvest for personal consumption and for sale. There are still not many people in Rasau Jaya District who process agricultural products into a product. Farmers sell their crops in several ways, among others: directly sold to consumers, sold directly to the market by opening their own kiosks, deposited with middlemen and agents, and taken by investors who invest in farmers. Keywords: peatlands, food security, food crops

Food needs will continue to increase due to year by year, Indonesia's population continues to increase, while the amount of food production cannot compensate for the increase in population. To guarantee national food security, the Indonesian government continues to strive to procure sufficient amounts of rice, including the use of high-yielding seeds, balanced and efficient use of fertilizers, control of pests and diseases, etc. These efforts are only focused on achieving targeted rice production but have not paid attention to the level of income obtained by farmers when cultivating rice compared to cultivating other agricultural commodities. The research was aimed to: (1) determine the income level of a rice farmer, especially in Sidrap District, which is a rice barn area in South Sulawesi Province; and (2) to determine the feasibility of rice farming in the area. One indicator of the feasibility of rice farming can be known based on the value of R / C ratio as well as Break Even Point (BEP) production and Break Even Point (BEP) prices. This study found that the level of income obtained by rice farmers in Pitu Riawa Subdistrict, Sidrap District was Rp. 13,624,672 / ha and was feasible to be cultivated with R / C ratio> 4.24; BEP production of 358 kg; BEP price of IDR 1,152 / kg.

As the privatized foodgrain management agency, BERNAS plays its roles in supporting and complementing the national food security policy of Malaysia. These include: (1) promoting market stability and thereby stabilizing rice prices, making them affordable to the consumers; (2) ensuring sufficient supply of rice of various grades and qualities anywhere in the country, making rice easily accessible to all; and (3) supporting the sustainability of domestic rice production which is deemed important to the national food security. These roles have established BERNAS as a ?rice institution? rather than a ?rice shop? whereby its main function is not to compete with other players in the market, but to make sure that all players in the industry would have sufficient margin to enable them to continue with their respective businesses. In doing so, BERNAS serves the interests of all stakeholders in the paddy and rice industry, including farmers, industry players, consumers, government and the nation as a whole. Due to these roles, BERNAS always has to balance between its commercial interest, since it must make reasonable profit in order to survive, and the interest of the nation as a whole. It is a delicate task in ensuring the confidence of the public and various stakeholders.

One of the causes of the successful development of community forests in Probolinggo Regency was the participation of religious leaders. This study explored the dynamics of the role of religious leaders in the development of community forests. Through a qualitative research design with a phenomenological approach and a Naturalistic paradigm, it was found that religious leaders carried out dynamic roles from the pioneering period to the period of obtaining international ecolabel certificates. From this discovery, three propositions were drawn to which after inter-relation between the concepts, two substantive theories were drawn, namely (1) Followers’ Need-Based Visionary Leader Theory, dan (2) Theory of Change-and-Innovation Enabling Leader Quality (Attributes of Change-and-innovation Enabling Leader).
