STRATEGI KEBIJAKAN PENINGKATAN KAPASITAS APARATUR PENGELOLAAN PANGAN DALAM RANGKA MEWUJUDKAN TATA KELOLA PANGAN YANG EFEKTIF DI KABUPATEN KONAWE

Abstrak

Konawe Regency plays a strategic role as the food barn of Southeast Sulawesi Province, with a Food Security Index (IKP) that continues to increase to a score of 77.6 (Stable Category) by 2025. Although supported by a surplus in production of leading commodities such as rice (241,504 tons) and various horticultural products, this abundant food supply has triggered a food security gap, with the Prevalence of Undernourishment (PoU) remaining at 6.73% and food insecurity areas not being adequately addressed. This study aims to determine the policy strategy for increasing the capacity of food management officials to achieve effective food governance in Konawe Regency. A qualitative approach was used to collect data through a search of relevant policy references, encompassing the regulatory hierarchy from the central to regional levels (Laws, Government Regulations, Presidential Regulations, National Food Agency Regulations, and Regional Regulations). The results indicate that strengthening food security in Konawe Regency is highly dependent on accurate stock data at the grassroots level, which can only be achieved through empowering village officials as food data agents. This policy is the most effective and efficient solution to overcome geographic barriers in remote areas through the digital transformation of integrated food reporting.
