This study aims to examine Gen Z’s initiatives in building a Green Economy in the food sector, analyze the strategies implemented, and identify supporting and inhibiting factors. A descriptive qualitative approach was applied through literature review, policy analysis, and case studies on young farmer programs and sustainable food innovations. The findings reveal that Gen Z contributes to the development of precision agriculture, organic farming, and diversification of environmentally friendly food products based on local wisdom. These initiatives strengthen national food security, create green business opportunities, and establish a sustainable food ecosystem. In conclusion, Gen Z’s active role in the food sector is the key to accelerating the Green Economy revolution, with success highly dependent on policy support, technical assistance, and cross-sector partnerships.
