Abstract

The phenomenon of the conversion of rice fields as agricultural land has become increasingly uncontrolled, where hundreds of hectares of productive rice fields are transformed into housing, hotels, villas, industrial centers, and so on. This study is aimed to identification the factors that cause the conversion of the agricultural lands. This research is concerned in the effectiveness of local laws in preventing the conversion of agricultural land to protect agricultural land. A statute and conceptual approach to legislation has been used in this study. The results showed that there are a number of rice fields that have been sold and used as residential, hospitality and industrial centers. However, it was found that some regions, especially in Bali has successfully applied local law known as Hukum Adat to preserve rice fields. It is expected that the government will pay particular attention to the farmers by providing facilities to support the efforts of farmers not to sell their land. In addition, it is possible for each village to transfer local laws to protect and conserve the rice fields.
