This research aims to spatially analyze the impacts of climate change, specifically flood and drought on the level of food security in the Bengawan Solo watershed. Agriculture is one of the sectors that is significantly affected by the phenomenon. Flood and drought disrupt agricultural productivity, resulting in farmers having difficulty accessing their livelihoods. This has the potential to threaten food security. This research was conducted in the Bengawan Solo watershed which flows through three provinces on the island of Java. Widespread watersheds and inadequate infrastructure make it difficult to monitor so that the areas through which rivers flow are vulnerable to flood and drought. The impact of these climate-related problems on food availability makes this research important. This research was started with the calculation of the food security index in each regency/city in the Bengawan Solo watershed regions and mapped it with a Geographic Information System (GIS). The step then proceeded to the impact assessment of flood and drought on food security using the quantitative method of panel data regression in the 2014-2018 period. To sum up, flood and drought contributed in a negative way to the level of food security. Information about food security is useful in planning the allocation of resources by the government. Therefore, efforts to strengthen food security can be more directed according to the needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
