Abstract

Strengthening food security, particularly for rice commodities, by increasing production and productivity is one of the main objectives of agricultural development. The phenomenon of population growth coupled with high urbanization has resulted in increasing demand for rice in Denpasar City. Fulfillment from local rice production is only about 20%. To prevent local food (rice) production from declining and to maintain or even increase it, policies to increase productivity and production must be multidimensional, combining land protection measures, productive intensification, and the adoption of technology appropriate to the urban context (appropriate technology). The policy direction is set to: (i) curb the rate of land conversion and ensure certainty of production space; (ii) increase the productivity of production factors through technological innovation and good cultivation practices; (iii) strengthen climate-adaptive subak-based irrigation infrastructure; (iv) differentiate production sources through horticulture and urban farming; and (v) revitalize institutions and regenerate farmers to make the sector economically attractive and socio-ecologically sustainable. Policy recommendations for increasing production and productivity of food crops through the use of appropriate technology in Denpasar City need to be formalized in a regulation.
