Abstract

This study wants to parse and to explain the problematic authority of the central and regional governments about LP2B. The method used was descriptive qualitative with a case study approach in rice-producing provinces in Indonesia which experienced conversion of paddy field. The results of this study include arguing about rice fields, which have largely not been the priority of local governments in their efforts to maintain rice productivity. In addition, the existing instruments as tools to prevent the conversion of paddy fields have not been conveyed to the farmer level, largely. The policy of determining LP2B locations in detail is suspected of not providing better benefits, compared to non-rice cultivation. On the other hand, the courage of the regional government in spatial planning with the establishment of LP2B (area and location) needs to be raised by putting aside practical interests.
