Abstract

Access to food is a human right. The destruction of paddy fields due to changes in use in various regions in Indonesia affects the national food supply. The contribution of domestic rice is decreasing, and the dependence on imported rice is increasing. In the long term, this phenomenon will threaten efforts to fulfil the adequacy of the staple food rice for the growing population, thereby increasing the potential for a food crisis. This study analyses the decline in domestic rice sufficiency due to the destruction of paddy fields in Banyumas Regency, Central Java Province. The method used in this study is mixed, consisting of visual image interpretation, map overlay, and descriptive quantitative analysis. The results showed that the average rate of destruction of paddy fields in Banyumas Regency from 2007 to 2019 was 102.6 hectares per year, concentrated around Purwokerto District, which is the capital of Banyumas Regency . The potential loss of rice production is 1,189,580 kilograms per year of harvested dry grain, equivalent to IDR 5,709,984,000.00.
