Abstract

The results of this research revealed that problematics with the use of peat technology due to the rate of conversion of agricultural land, expansion of agricultural land, and increasing production of food crops is not optimal, despite long-term solutions to the crisis of fire and haze, therefore it is important to implement Government Regulation of 2016 about the Protection and Management of Peat Ecosystems to meet the basic needs of the community from local resources. The problem is what is the government’s effort to improve the realization of food sufficiency through the use of peatlands and what is the legal basis above that. The research methods use a normative juridical method, by used secondary data obtained through study literature and analysed qualitatively. The results and discussion of this research is that the government’s efforts in applying standard technology efficiently produces useful results with the use of peat as a solution of food security through a touch of technology. The legal basis is the Presidential Regulation of 2016 about Peat Restoration Agency, which functions to accelerate the restoration of the area and restore the hydrological functions of peat due to forest and land fires in a special, systematic, directed, integrated and comprehensive manner.
