Abstract

An increasing in population growth causes the need for a new strategy to meet sustainable food security. The key word for food security is to provide sufficient food, both quantity and quality, safety, equitable and affordable for all citizens in a sustainable manner. The ability to provide food is highly dependent on the level of community income. Sufficiency of community income to be able to access food is one of the dominant problems in determining the achievement of food security in an area. The purpose of this study was to analyze the contribution of oil palm plantations in achieving the household food security, as well as to analyze the dimensions of the sustainability of oil palm plantations related to the achievement of household food security in Jambi Province. The results showed that the income of smallholder from oil palm farming had a real contribution in meeting the expenditure needs for family food. The results also show that from the Ecological and Economic Dimensions, oil palm farming in Jambi Province cannot be said to be sustainable, while from the Social, Technological and Institutional Dimensions, oil palm farming can be said to be sustainable.
