Abstract

The goal of the study is to examine the relationship of food security and land ecology in West Lombok Regency. This study uses secondary data from Central Statistics Agency of West Lombok Regency and collects time series data of year 2016 to 2019. Related data from other sources are also accessed to complement the main analysis. The results showed that land ecology of West Lombok has relationship with food security in region, with strong indications that wetland ecology has higher food security level than dryland ecology. This study recommends the transformation of dryland into wetland, for example, by building irrigation infrastructure whenever and wherever possible. Wetland is obviously more productive in provision of food than its counterpart.
