ABSTRACT

This study aims to determine the rate of conversion of paddy fields in the Wajo Regency, the factors affecting the conversion of agricultural land, and its impact on food security in the Wajo Regency. The basic method of this research is descriptive and quantitative analysis method. The type of data used is secondary data in the form of time series for the last twenty years starting from 2000-2019. The method of determining the location in this research is a purposive method, namely in the Wajo Regency. The quantitative analysis method used is partial land conversion, rate calculating influencing factor analysis using OLS (Ordinary Least Square) based multiple linear regression analysis, and food surplus analysis. The results show that the conversion rate of paddy fields in the Wajo Regency fluctuates at an average of 0.13% per year. The results of the multiple linear regression analysis show a confidence level of 95%, namely that there is a significant influence between the dependent variable area of paddy field land and the independent variable the amount of Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), population, industry, building area and courtyards, and number of schools. The independent variables that affect the dependent variable individually are the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), population, and number of schools. The impact of the conversion of paddy agricultural land was the loss of rice production of 6,147.40 tonnes during 2000-2019. However, the food security of the population in Wajo Regency according to the results of the food surplus-deficit analysis is a surplus, which means it is resistant in spite of the changing function of the rice fields.
