<![CDATA[Food security in Central Java Province is something that needs to be considered. In 2023, there was a decrease in rice production, while the population continued to increase. In addition, the share of food expenditure in households in Central Java is the highest in Java Island. By taking the object of five regencies, Cilacap, Grobogan, Demak, Sragen, and Pati, which are rice-producing centers in Central Java, this study aims to analyze the probability of households achieving food security. A binary logistic regression approach was applied to analyze the determinants of household food security, based on cross-sectional data obtained from the 2023 SUSENAS conducted by the Central Statistics Agency. The results of the analysis show that the variables of worry about food and the education of the household head have a significant positive effect. This means that it contributes to increasing the probability of food security. Meanwhile, the number of household members, sex, and age of the household head have a significant negative effect. Thus, it means that the variable contributes to a decrease in the probability of food security. Meanwhile, the occupation of the household head has no significant effect. In addition, it is proven that the independent variables simultaneously affect food security. The government can take the right policy, resulting in an increase in the status of household security in Central Java.]]>
