PEMANFAATAN TANAH TERLANTAR UNTUK MENDUKUNG KEBIJAKAN KETAHANAN PANGAN NASIONAL PASCA BERLAKUNYA PERATURAN PEMERINTAH NOMOR 48 TAHUN 2025
Abstract
Land is a strategic agrarian resource for development and food security. However, there remain lands for which state-granted rights exist but which are not cultivated, used, or utilized for their intended purposes—thereby becoming "abandoned land"—contrary to the principle of the social function of land rights (Article 6 of the Basic Agrarian Law) and hindering the optimization of agricultural land. The government issued Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 48 of 2025 concerning the Regulation of Abandoned Areas and Land. This study analyzes the legal framework for abandoned land following the enactment of Government Regulation 48/2025 and examines the optimization of its utilization for national food security, employing a normative-juridical method (utilizing statutory, conceptual, and historical approaches) alongside a qualitative analysis of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The findings indicate that while Government Regulation 48/2025 is more comprehensive, it does not yet explicitly integrate agrarian reform and food security agendas; policy strengthening regarding redistribution and productive utilization is required to enhance food availability and production.
