Ltd.The food security in Indonesia is threatened because the area dedicated to farming is decreasing. The most important area for food production in Indonesia is Java especially the north part of the island. The trans-toll road on Java has been developed in the north of Java, and this road encourages farmers to convert farmland to non-agricultural use because it is more valuable after the road was constructed. This threatens food security in Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to analyze the factors that stimulate farmers to convert their farmland. The research used a survey method in the Terisi district, Indramayu Regency, Indonesia. The results showed that farmers convert their farmland based on income and proximity to the road. This research might prevent farmers from converting their farmland by increasing famer income around the road. This would promote food security in Indonesia.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Food security,Land farm convert,Trans-toll Java road[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
