Background: Global food needs will continue to increase, this cannot be separated from the increase in population which has implications for the increase in food needs which until now the world's population has increased. The availability and unavailability of food are related to the relationship between supply and demand in a global context. Findings: The hegemony of food power is not absolutely influenced by food barn countries but global food politics that enter the food chain are one of the developing issues. The control that occurs is not only in the harvesting process but also the process from planting, maintenance, to post-harvest and processing. Therefore, each country has its own unique position even though it does not have a large food barn but is still able to control global food. Methods: This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with a primary and secondary database through data collection techniques using interview techniques. Conclusion: Factors that influence food politics and dynamics have a long chain, not only farmers and buyers but there are indirect agents who add to the food process chain. Global policy intervention through institutions is carried out directly on agricultural policies and in general development policies that overall encourage global market agriculture. Support for local agricultural development subsidies and building proxy policies for small farmers when there is a surplus or deficit in supply during exports or imports.
