The sustainability of a nation’s food supply depends on the protection of its primary agricultural assets. Ministerial Decree (SK) No. 1589/SK-HK.02.01/XII/2021 issued by the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning (ATR/BPN) is the definitive instrument for Agrarian Resource Preservation. By establishing a designated map of protected rice fields (LSD) across key provinces—including West Java, Central Java, East Java, Bali, and others—the government implements National Food Security Zoning. This regulation prevents the uncontrolled conversion of productive land and ensures that fertile soil remains dedicated to sustainable food agriculture.
Following the mandates of Ministerial Regulation No. 12 of 2020, this decree provides the legal and geospatial data required for both Central and Regional governments to integrate sustainable farming zones into regional spatial plans (RTRW).
Institutional Framework: The LSD Operational Mandate
To achieve National Food Security Zoning, the decree establishes a total protected area of 3,836,944.33 hectares. The operational framework is governed by several key dictums that ensure Agrarian Resource Preservation:
- Data Synchronization: Protected maps are subject to continuous verification and synchronization by the Implementation Team (Tim Pelaksana) to reflect accurate land use data.
- Spatial Integration: The LSD maps serve as the mandatory baseline for the designation of Sustainable Food Agriculture Land (LP2B) within regional and detailed spatial plans.
- Non-Agricultural Exemptions: Land rights or industrial initiatives issued before the decree’s enactment may be excluded from the map, provided they meet specific legal criteria.
- Strategic Review: The maps are subject to review in the event of strategic national policies or if land is functionally no longer sustainable for rice cultivation, based on multi-stakeholder assessments.
The 11 Core Provisions of the LSD Decree
The implementation of this decree is a masterclass in Agrarian Resource Preservation. The following table outlines the structural provisions of the regulation:
| Dictum | Summary of Provision |
|---|---|
| First – Third | Formal designation of the 3.8 million hectare protected area as detailed in the attached geospatial maps. |
| Fourth – Fifth | Mandates the use of these maps for local spatial planning and requires continuous data verification by the Integrated Team. |
| Sixth – Seventh | Provides a legal pathway for land rights or industrial permits issued prior to the decree to be excluded. |
| Eighth – Ninth | Allows for map revisions based on national strategic policies or functional land changes verified by academic and government experts. |
| Tenth | The Restrictive Clause: Land on the LSD map cannot be converted for other uses without a formal recommendation from the Minister of ATR/BPN. |
| Eleventh | Enactment and administrative correction protocols. |
Conclusion: Data-Driven Land Stewardship
In conclusion, the Protected Rice Field Map Decree is the definitive instrument for Agrarian Resource Preservation and National Food Security Zoning. It transitions land management from a reactive process to a proactive stewardship model. By strictly requiring a Ministerial recommendation for land-use changes, the government ensures that the “Golden Land” of Indonesia is protected for future generations. Accurate geospatial data is not just a map; it is the fundamental shield that secures the nation’s independence from food instability.
