Highlights

  • Food is a basic human need that must be met in sustaining life and living

  • This study aims to determine the dynamics of the system of rice availability in West Java viewed from the production and consumption sectors, to find a picture of the development of rice production and consumption in West Java, to get important variables that act as leverage points that can be used as basic variables the development of a sustainable rice availability policy model within the framework of guaranteeing the availability of rice in an area

  • There are two main objectives in making a model of rice availability with a system dynamics approach, namely to obtain a picture of the cause-effect relationships in a system and to provide qualitative and quantitative interpretations of the system, and more to the level of application oriented on the problem namely to get a better prediction of the behavior of the system used as soon as possible if there are improvements, in the management of the system

Summary

Introduction

Food is a basic human need that must be met in sustaining life and living. Law No 18 of 2012 concerning Food states that the state is obliged to realize the availability, affordability, and fulfillment of adequate, safe, quality and nutritionally balanced food consumption, both at the national and regional levels to individuals evenly throughout Indonesia all the time by utilizing local resources, institutions and culture. History has proven that the food problem is closely related to social security, economic stability, political stability and security or national security as a whole. Weaknesses in realizing food security will shake the joints of national security. In Indonesia, the problem of food and food security cannot be separated from rice commodities, bearing in mind that rice is a staple food consumed by most of the people of Indonesia. This can be seen from the high participation of rice consumption which is more than 100% (97,7%), which means that almost all Indonesian households consume rice [1, 2, 3, 4]
