Abstract
The higher population affects increasing national rice consumption,
but it is not balanced with the land area due to shrinking. This has
prompted the government to implement various policies, one of which
is the Plantation Index 400 (IP 400). An example of a successful form
of the 400 Crop Index is Sukoharjo Regency, harvested during the
January-March period covering an area of 2,088 hectares producing
45,422 tons of grain. Currently, the planted area of the 400 Planting
Index has reached 10,000 hectares. This paper aims to analyze the
400 Planting Index innovation efforts in realizing food self-sufficiency.
The method in this study is a qualitative method using pre-existing
secondary data sources, such as journals, online articles, data from
the Central Statistics Agency, and related books or guidelines. The
results of this study are to analyze the role of the agricultural sector as
a food supplier for the community, the application of the 400 Cropping
Index innovation, the adaptation of Indonesian farmers to the 400
Planting Index innovation, and analyze the 400 Planting Index
innovation in increasing the amount of rice production to achieve rice
self-sufficiency. The realization of the 400 Planting Index application
is carried out by planting the first rice in the rainy season, then followed
by the second planting of rice in the dry season, and the fourth rice
before the rainy season the following year.
