National Food Security

<p><em>Indonesia responds to the urgency of the threat of food crisis by </em><em>developing</em><em> national food estate. According to reports released by FAO and United Nations, the Covid-19 pandemic has the potential to threaten more than 50 million people towards extreme poverty. This has an impact on the global food crisis that threatens other countries if they do not take the right steps immediately. Food crisis is one of the non-traditional threats because it has significant impact on lives of many people in a country. Non-traditional threats are defined as security threats that hit a country non-militarily, it can be in the form of issues of climate change, economy, limited resources, disease outbreaks, or food security. Food security can be achieved when access to food can be easily achieved by all elements of society and meets the domestic needs. However, when access to food cannot be easily accessed by public, it creates a potential for a food crisis. This is because food is the primary need of every individual which must be fulfilled at any time so it is a national security issue. Through these problems, the availability of national food security must be guaranteed by the government. Along with high population growth and a pandemic outbreak, national food security and stability is on the verge of limitations. This article aims to explain the development of food estate as Indonesia’s strategy in facing the threat of food crisis in the next few years. This research used qualitative analysis method to understand the urgency of the development of food estate as a way for Indonesia to face the threat of food crisis by using the theory of threats, food security, and food estate. In this case, Jokowi responded to the threat of the food crisis by building national food estate in Central Kalimantan. The development of national food estate is considered to be able to meet Indonesia’s food reserves in the next few years, especially after the pandemic period. The results of the research in this article show that the government sees the potential for the food crisis as a national threat, so it needs measurable steps that can overcome these problems and pay attention to the sustainability aspect in its implementation. Therefore, building a food estate is the right step to answer this challenge.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords: </em></strong><em>n</em><em>on-</em><em>t</em><em>raditional </em><em>t</em><em>hreat, </em><em>f</em><em>ood </em><em>c</em><em>rises, </em><em>f</em><em>ood </em><em>s</em><em>ecurity, </em><em>f</em><em>ood </em><em>e</em><em>state, national security</em></p>

Needs realization of the food estate concept partially in strengthening food security in the agricultural sector cannot be done by the government and society, but also involves corporations. One form of corporate involvement in this research is a program from BNI in the form of farmer cards. The farmer card program is expected to provide efficiency for farmers so that they can receive the distribution of government support in the right amount, the right type, the right time, the right place, the right quality and the right price. This study aims to measure the implementation of the BNI farmer card implementation to provide a pattern of relationship to the potential development of the food estate concept in Pulang Pisau. implementation of BNI farmer cards in the Pulang Pisau community through indicators of understanding and compliance (X1), behavior and culture (X2), economic conditions (X3), policy issues (X4), facilities and infrastructure (X5), and stakeholder support (X6) for Realization food estate concept. The research design was carried out in a cross-sectional manner using a quantitative approach through smart PLS. The results show the value of the six factors measured through the implementation of the BNI farmer card, which later on this value will become a basis for sustainability and policy adjustments in the realization of food estate in the region itself through government, community and corporate cooperation in realizing food security against global food crisis.

This chapter narrates the saga of the Right to Food Security. Briefly pointing out various prior food movements, the chapter dates the movement to 2001 in Rajasthan with a writ petition at the Supreme Court. The SC took up the issue with surprising enthusiasm issuing order after order to force the government to comply with reports and action. The government, while not antagonistic, was apathetic. Encouraged by the court orders the activists gathered under a single banner of Right to Food Campaign in 2004 and built on the campaign in court as well as on the ground. Political support finally came when the issue entered UPA’s election manifesto in 2009. Post UPA victory, the NAC submitted its draft bill in 2010 but a substantially altered bill finally got enacted in 2013. The movement reflects a combination of Punctuated Equilibrium Framework and Advocacy Coalition Framework.

<strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Tujuan penulisan paper ini adalah mendeskripsikan status ketahanan pangan nasional, kebijakan stra-tegis terkait dalam pengentasan kemiskinan, dan kebijakan pembangunan pertanian dalam rangka peningkatan kesejahteraan petani. Dalam satu dasa warsa terakhir ini, terdapat indikasi instabilitas ketahanan pangan yang ditunjukkan oleh adanya peningkatan ketergantungan impor pangan. Peningkatan kinerja pembangunan pertanian dan pedesaan diyakini akan memberikan kontribusi positif terhadap perbaikan aksesibilitas dan ketahanan pangan rumah tangga. Sedikitnya terdapat empat program pemerintah terkait dengan pengentasan kemiskinan, yaitu pengadaan beras bersubsidi, program padat karya, program pemberdayaan usaha mikro/ kecil/menengah, dan dana kompensasi kenaikan harga bahan bakar minyak untuk golongan miskin. Dalam rangka penguatan ketahanan pangan dan pengentasan kemiskinan, kebijakan pembangunan pertanian berikut ini perlu dipertimbangkan, yaitu : (1) Perluasan spektrum pengembangan irigasi dengan sasaran peningkatan produktivitas lahan beririgasi; (2) Pembaharuan arah kebijakan sebelumnya dalam rangka mengatasi kendala penawaran/produksi pertanian; (3) Reformulasi kebijakan proteksi harga melalui pembatasan impor, penegakan hukum, dan mengkaitkan program beras untuk  masyarakat miskin dengan program pengadaan gabah oleh pemerintah; (4) Mendorong diversifikasi pertanian dengan menjamin ketersediaan, akssessibilitas, dan perbaikan faktor pendukung pengembangan komoditas non-beras; dan (5) Ratifikasi perlakuan khusus (special product) bagi komoditas pertanian strategis, dan kembali kepada regulasi awal AoA-WTO berdasarkan pada komitmen dan Skedul XXI.<br /><br /><br /><strong>English</strong><br />The objectives of the paper are to describe the state of national food security, related strategies for poverty eradication, and the respective policies on agricultural development for the benefit of the people. Over the last decade, the achievement of national food security depended on imports, indicating the instability of food security. The improvement of agricultural and rural development will contribute greatly to better food accessibility and a higher food security status of the population. There are at least four main government programs aimed at helping the poor, i.e. the provision of subsidized rice, public work programs, the empowerment program for micro-small-and medium enterprises, and low-income assistance funds to alleviate the burden of the poor. To strengthen food security and to eradicate the poverty, the following agricultural development policies should be taken into account, i.e.:  (1) The widening of the irrigation development spectrum with the main objective of improving irrigation productivity;  (2) To complete reversing the previous policy direction in order to eliminate agricultural supply constraint;  (3) The reformulation of price support policy implementing rice import through prohibition, strong law enforcement, and to integrate the rice program for the poor with the government procurement floor price policy;  (4) To enhance agricultural diversification through the availability, accessibility, and improvement of the supporting factors for non-rice commodities; (5) The ratification of special products for agricultural strategic commodities, in addition to return with the initial AoA-WTO regulation based on the commitment and Schedule of XXI

<p>There has been refurbished interest in food security related issues in many developing countries of the world. In fact, the concern about the eradication of poverty and hunger form a major objective of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Yet poverty and hunger still persist due to food shortage and insecurity as a result of increased global food demand, diminishing global food reserves, erratic climatic condition, and increased cost of transportation among others. Before now, various agricultural policies measures have been formulated to curb food security challenges in Nigeria. Unfortunately, these policies have not produced the desired results of the increase in food production. This study examined the factors impeding food security in Akutupa-Kiri, Nigeria. A structured and self-administered questionnaire using systematic sampling technique was used to collect data from a total of 194 (one hundred and ninety-four) household heads farmers representing 2% of the entire population in the study area. The data were presented using descriptive statistics in the form of frequency and percentages. Weighted means were used to determine the predominant factors impeding food security in the study area. Findings revealed that poverty (M.W=5.00), poor road transportation (M.W=5.00), inadequate social amenities (M.W=5.00) and lack of government support and assistance (M.W=5.00) were the most significant factors impeding food security in Akutupa-Kiri. The study recommends that there is a need for improvement in sustainable food security in the study area and Nigeria at large through the provision of adequate road transportation. Effort should be made by the government to render substantial support to the peasant farmers and as well ensure that agricultural policies formulation target these peasants farmers and their rural environments for the purpose of sustainable food security in the nation.</p>

National Food Security

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.

Significance Harvest performance so far supports optimistic predictions that it can repeat the record harvest and export volumes achieved last year. Grain crops account for about 40% of agricultural exports, which with ferrous metals are the key sources of foreign revenues. Impacts Oilseeds will remain another lucrative export item: Ukraine is the world's largest exporter of sunflower oil. Bread prices will rise in response to shrinking domestic supply amid growing exports of flour. The government is likely to seek a new accord with exporters to define how much can be exported while ensuring national food security.

Cereals is one fundamental factor about people's livelihood. Relatively abundant food production, to maintain a certain number, variety and quality of food reserves, directly related to national security, social stability and economic development. Maintain a certain amount, variety and quality food reserves, which is essential to ensure national food security measures. Cereals reserve and quantity monitor is a key element for food security strategy. However, most of the granaries were built many years ago, outdated facilities, technical means backward in China and many other countries. Access depends on the number of grain of experience and estimation. As different varieties of grain, place of origin, degree of packing, texture, moisture content and shelf life of different, the estimated cereals quantity data using traditional methods and real data usually have a large deviation. This restricts the development and implementation of national food security strategy. Fortunately, with the rapid development and wide application of modern information technologies, they are rapidly penetrated all aspects of grain fields and applications. Food safety system has been extended to modern technology, management and information technology and network support integrated system, and gradually developed into a warehouse as the mainstay and the main form of processing and production, related to transportation, storage, processing, circulation and consumption the whole process of information systems. Modern information technologies improve accuracy and reliability of cereals weight measure. In this paper, a cereals weight measure system combining of the new types sensors and communication technology is used in food granary. Vibrating wire pressure sensor is deployed in the bottom grain storage in advance, and then began to store grain silos. The sensor signals are sent to collection device or monitoring the background. Background calculates the weight of grain storage silos by the received data. Pressure sensor can accurately obtain the food and the weight of cereals can be scientifically obtained.
