Is The Distribution of Land Ownership of Corn Farmers in Grobogan, Central Java Sufficient to Achieve Food Security?

Land ownership plays an important role in reflecting the social structure of a community, especially in relation to status and the management of agricultural resources. The size of the land owned by farmers greatly influences the amount of production. This study was conducted to assess the extent to which the land tenure structure of corn farmers in Grobogan Regency, Central Java, Indonesia, affect key indicators of sustainable food security. The data used were obtained from a survey of corn farmers in two sub-districts, Pulokulon and Tawangharjo. The analysis was conducted using quantitative descriptive methods through land area classification and Gini Ratio calculation, and visualized using a Lorenz Curve. The results show that land ownership is dominated by small to medium-scale categories, with most farmers owning less than 0.5 hectares of land. The Gini Ratio value of 0.3368 indicates moderate inequality. This inequality impacts differences in production capacity, input use efficiency, and income among farmers. Food security in Grobogan Regency has not been fully achieved because moderate land inequality means that most corn farmers only manage small plots of land with limited production capacity, hampering stable food availability and equitable access to food at the household level.

Abstract

Land ownership plays an important role in reflecting the social structure of a community, especially in relation to status and the management of agricultural resources. The size of the land owned by farmers greatly influences the amount of production. This study was conducted to assess the extent to which the land tenure structure of corn farmers in Grobogan Regency, Central Java, Indonesia, affect key indicators of sustainable food security. The data used were obtained from a survey of corn farmers in two sub-districts, Pulokulon and Tawangharjo. The analysis was conducted using quantitative descriptive methods through land area classification and Gini Ratio calculation, and visualized using a Lorenz Curve. The results show that land ownership is dominated by small to medium-scale categories, with most farmers owning less than 0.5 hectares of land. The Gini Ratio value of 0.3368 indicates moderate inequality. This inequality impacts differences in production capacity, input use efficiency, and income among farmers. Food security in Grobogan Regency has not been fully achieved because moderate land inequality means that most corn farmers only manage small plots of land with limited production capacity, hampering stable food availability and equitable access to food at the household level.
