Abstract

Food is a basic human need. The state must strive to meet the availability of food for people in a sustainable manner. One of the efforts is to maintain and develop paddy fields as a food source as a supplier of 95% of national rice production. The conversion of paddy fields is a reason of decreasing of food production in Purwakarta Regency, which impact on food availability and security. This research was aimed to provide a portrait of the rate of conversion of paddy fields in Purwakarta. This research is a quantitative descriptive research using spatial analysis to compare two period of times: 2013-2017 period and the 2017-2021 period. The results of spatial analysis in the 2013-2017 period showed that Purwakarta Regency experienced a reduction in paddy fields by 195.55 ha (1%) consisting of paddy fields turned into industry 117.99 ha; roads 5.72 ha; settlements of 42.30 ha and housing, trade and services of 29.55 ha. Meanwhile, in the 2013-2017 period, paddy fields turned into industry 151.72 ha, roads by 23.54 ha, settlements 196.76 ha, and housing, trade and services 29.81 ha. The results of this study reinforce that the reduction in food production in Purwakarta was caused by the conversion of paddy fields into other uses during the 2013-2017 and 2017-2021 periods.

Abstract

This study evaluates the application of blockchain technology to enhance environmental accountability in sustainable tourism reporting in Bali, as a response to the risk of greenwashing practices. Given that traditional reporting systems often lack standardization and are vulnerable to manipulation, this study aims to empirically test the impact of blockchain integration on accuracy, efficiency, and stakeholder trust. Using a quasi-experimental method with a sample of 60 tourism businesses divided into treatment and control groups, data was analyzed through system metrics, surveys, and interviews. The results showed that blockchain significantly improved reporting accuracy by 18.6% and accelerated verification time by 67% (9.4 days faster). Furthermore, the use of smart contracts was shown to increase stakeholder trust and reduce audit costs with a return on investment ratio of 2.8:1. Theoretically, this study validates how automation and data immutability strengthen environmental accountability structures in complex tourism governance. In conclusion, blockchain technology is effective in increasing transparency and reporting efficiency, although its adoption by SMEs remains hampered by cost and technical barriers. The practical implications of this research emphasize the importance of developing user-friendly interfaces as well as financial support to ensure inclusive digital transformation for the sustainability of the tourism industry.
