Future DirectivesAs we may aware, climate change and natural disaster pose a major threat to the effort of achieving global food security. In the case of Indonesia, added with high growth rate of population, those factors create multi-faceted challenges in maintaining sustainable food security. On the supply side, high population growth rate creates stiff competition on the use of land and water, which at the end may reduce food production capacity. Meanwhile, at the same time, quantity, quality, and diversity of food demand are increasing continuously.

In order to keep up with the dynamic condition nationally, regionally, and globally, in 2012, Indonesia has successfully revised its previous food law (Food Law 9/2007 became Food Law 18/2012), which is mainly aimed to achieve food security, sovereignity and resilience both as a nation and an individual as well.

Basic policy for the achievement of sustainable food security is a sincere commitment to meet the demand of the food of the entire populations through the optimum used of domestic resources. Therefore, the government has the responsibility in giving the incentives to produce; enhance research activities and the utilization of agricultural technology and innovation; accelerate technology dissemination to smallholder farmers; maintain the stability of staples food supplies and prices; develop staple food reserves in the central, regional and community; and also increase the efforts to achieve food safety.

Based on this new law, we are in the process to have a stronger institution of food security, that is directly under the supervision of the President of the Republic of Indonesia to execute the policy related on food security.
