Abstract
Food has always been an important problem in a country. The availability and resilience of a country can be determined by its providing capacity. The Indonesian government is interested in preventing land conversion and maintaining agricultural land areas. The contemporary dynamics of Java Island, as a rice-producing center, are seeing a drop in land area due to shifting land usage. Dynamic land use has changed agricultural land from being a priority because it is perceived that outside the agricultural sector has a far greater contribution to regions seeking regional prosperity. This study employs a case study technique to determine how successful government control is over changes in land use and measures to preserve agricultural land. In addition, we will consider what the government should do from the perspective of farmers.
