Abstract

One of the environmental problems in achieving sustainable food in Indonesia is caused by climate change. Extreme weather is a very influential factor in food security. Banggai Regency is one of the food-producing regencies that has experienced significant land use changes. This impacts the risk of climate change and decreases the sustainable food supply. This study identifies climate change spatially by involving climate change criteria and their impacts, including temperature rise, changes in rainfall, level of hazard, and risk of climate change. The analysis results show a risk of climate change in the form of droughts, floods and landslides, causing potential environmental damage in developing sustainable food security. The analysis also found six districts in the high vulnerability category, Nuhon, Bunta, Mansama, Moilong, Simpang Raya and Toili, out of 23 districts in Banggai Regency.
