1. INDONESIA FEEDING THE HUNGRY WORLD
World population will continue to increase in predictions ranging from 7 to 9 billion people in
the coming 40 years. Currently more less about 1 billion of the world population suffered a case
of starvation, meaning they do not have food that is safe and nutritious vegetables for
consumption. One of the causes of the occurrence of cases of hunger is due to the high demand
for food needs as the population growth but not coupled with increased supply of food resources.
If this is indeed continue – constant then the population who experienced hunger cases would
certainly be increased. World Food security, therefore note worthy to keep human life in the
world. Indonesia as part of international world also has the role to address world food security,
problems, troubleshooting regarding the security, the world, sure starts first with security,
Indonesia Country food for themselves.
Indonesia is known as an agricultural country, the country where most of the activity of the
wheel of life run by farming activities. The fertile land of Indonesia is very suitable for
agricultural activity coupled with the natural wealth and biodiversity can be used as a source of
food that is able to meet the food needs of all the people of Indonesia. Ironically, however, there
are still a number of inhabitants of Indonesia are still worried the issue needs diet a day – a day
that has not been met with enough food, healthy and nutritious. food availability is supported by
three main pillars, namely food availability as many times as required by the community that
includes the stability and continuity of the provision of the good that comes from food
production, backup and import and export. Second, is the distribution that includes the
aksesabilitas Intercity and interregional food time and stability of strategic food prices. Third, is
the consumption of nutritional quality/amount covers nutrition, security and diversity of food
consumption (Suparmo and Usman,2004: 3-4).
To guarantee the availability of the Government of Indonesia Society food seeks to improve
results of agricultural production. A lot of things into the constraints of inadequate results of
Indonesia's agricultural production such as the extent of Indonesia's agricultural land has not
been managed optimally. Still lack basic necessities in the field of agriculture, namely equipment
supporting agriculture, irrigation/watering, the seeds are hard to get at, fertilizers and human
resources who will manage agricultural land. agricultural land in the area is indeed quite
Indonnesia especially in rural areas, but the land – land is not productive so that the results of the
agricultural production did not meet the needs of the community. One factor that led to his
difficult getting seed farm in Indonesia was due to the monopoly of seed by foreign corporations.
Agricultural production is also affected by the circumstances of weather and climate are indeed,
when agricultural land was hit by flood or drought, then found the harvest becomes increasingly
critical trigger fails and the availability of food. To overcome the lack of agricultural products,
with the existing policy of the Government of Indonesia do imports foodstuffs from abroad, such
as rice, fruits,vegetables, buhan, soybean, and beef. Imports made our country is increasing every
year, especially in terms of imported rice.
The second aspect that build food security is food distribution, which includes food accessibility
between regions and between time and stability of strategic food prices. Production results
originating from the farmer, bought by merchants, on sale in the market to finally get into the
hands of the public or the buyers. This food distribution activities involve many people in each

2. process. In the distribution of foodstuffs has relation with the use of means of transportation, so
access road between regions, between cities or counties should be running smoothly. In this case
the transport fare will affect the price of groceries, when soaring transportation costs go up is
usually triggered by the crisis and rising prices of fuel oil and the price of staple foods has also
surged up. A State of unstable prices increase so as to make community, making increasingly
restless as difficult for the community to meet its food needs.
The third pillar is building food security, is that include the number of consumption is the quality
of nutrition/nutrition, security and diversity of food consumption. Food consumption by the
number of quality nutrition and nutrrisi only 16 percent felt by residents of Indonesia. 84 percent,
the society of Indonesia who live in middle-class category up to down was only able to meet the
needs of food just to survive. This caused by poverty that hit Indonesia was complex, classic
case since ancient times until now, which is still not finished. Many factors cause the occurrence
of poverty such as the number of people who became unemployed because of the amount of the
labor force that is not comparable to existing job opportunities and also because of the many
human resources but very few qualified human resources. In any food consumtion community
also should takecare – choose food that is safe for the sake of achieving profitability due to
consumtion there are also vendors selling food not good quality, even expired, and contain other
harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde, and dye boraks fabric.
A solution to the constraints of food Indonesia deals with three aspects that range from food
availability, distribution, and consumption of nutritious and diverse. On the availability of food
that exists in Indonesia, the expectation, the Government as a body that makes policy of the
society being able to trial on give about this food security , more thoughtful again. Farm needs,
such as seeds, land and water need to be carefully consider, and also the distribution of fertilizer
to farmers, is expected to ease access for the purposes of tillage farming and gardening of
msarakat, from the local community, local, regional, and even the Center. It should be also in
increase granting extension to the farmers, in the process of their activities, in order to be more
regular in the management agriculture activity. The Government could have brought agricultural
engineers who are in college to see the guide how to run the wheel of agriculture in this country.
Solutions for the distribution of food in Indonesia, the Government is able to maintain stability in
the expected price of foodstuffs in Indonesia, do not get, the food supply was already thinning
out, plus the price is not affordable by the poor, the cause, the eighth, malnutri, stunted growth in
children happens everywhere. Government more wise there again, in regulating the price
increase of the fuel oil as it is quite an impact on the price of the staple food. In addition the

3. Government expect, capable control imports of rice that had been often we did, which annually
increases, hopefully with the strength of our own nation, exerting all ability, with agricultural
products in the country capable of supplying our needs, even the world needs. Because our
Government Indonesia was supposed to stand on its own,not so dependent on other countries. if
used to be Indonesia's only import it is time for Indonesia to export products to other countries –
other countries. In partnership with foreign parties in the hope the two sides balanced gain.
Resource utilization in the food and nutrition number of fulfillment/nutrition and food diversity.
The Government and the community are given guidance about the different kinds of ingredients
shall food staple in terms of carbohydrate, protein, vitamins, minerals and other more. The
acquisition of foodstuffs in order to get in the hands of the community to be processed later
activities of the food and drug supervisory body – regardless of the Republic of Indonesia needs
to be increased again in order for the foodstuffs that endanger humans in order to be immediately
secured. The community as any consumer needs to take care in buying foodstuffs, it is
necessary to know the characteristics of knowledge – the hallmark of groceries that are still good
and worth to be consume.
Through this event we are from young people, who are starting to realize how difficult the life of
the community on the issue of food thickness, to overcome it, Indonesia which is potentially as
an agricultural country producing the world's food availability resource which could increase
world food thickness. Through employee administration, good farmland that is monitored by
experts, as well as the completeness of the infrastructure repair advice. Kesterseddiaan food not
to mention things that need a lot of. Ability and power wise government able to control food
prices when distributing food. in terms of food consumption bernutri and diverse will be realized
if food availability and pendistribusiannya went smoothly. Required the cooperation of all parties
in the oversight of these foods so that the masyarakt will consume health remains assured. We as
young people believe if we are working together, keeping each other on food thickness, this
problem we can solve
