The data from the three indicators were obtained through field observations, interviews, questionnaires, documentation and literature studies. Furthermore, the data were analyzed spatially by the scoring and overlay methods. Furthermore, the data were analyzed spatially with scoring methods and overlays that were run using ArcView software. Based on the results of the analysis, the Central Buton Regency area is divided into two food vulnerability classes, namely not vulnerable and rather vulnerable. The area which is in the rather vulnerable class covers a large part of the Central Buton Regency, which is 63,130.07 ha or 79.1% of the area of Central Buton Regency.
