Penguatan Ketahanan Pangan melalui Pemetaan Wilayah, Identifikasi Komoditas Unggulan, dan Analisis Sosial Ekonomi di Kawasan Transmigrasi Rasau Jaya Kabupaten Kubu Raya Kalimantan Barat

Abstract

Efforts to strengthen food security in transmigration areas require integration between spatial mapping, local commodity development, and understanding of the socio-economic conditions of the community. This study aims to produce a comprehensive overview as a basis for regional development planning in five sub-districts in the Rasau Jaya transmigration area. The activities were carried out through secondary data collection, mapping of village facility coordinates using geospatial platforms (Avenza, Conota, Timestamp), infrastructure observation, and in-depth interviews with village officials, farmers, cooperative actors, and transmigrant communities. The analysis was conducted using quantitative and qualitative approaches through the Location Quotient (LQ), SWOT, PESTEL, and Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) methods. The results of the study show that the integration of spatial data with socio-economic information provides an overview of infrastructure conditions and accessibility. Furthermore, the results show that the area has potential for leading commodities such as sweet corn, papaya, pineapple, durian, and langsat. Field findings reveal the existence of adaptive farming practices on peatlands without burning, as well as major challenges such as 420 hectares of overlapping land in Mekarsari Village, damaged road access, limited educational facilities, and a shortage of teaching staff. These findings form an important basis for developing regional development strategies, including strengthening village data management, preparing SIG-based RPJMDes (Village Medium-Term Development Plans), increasing institutional capacity, and identifying infrastructure development priorities. The data and analysis results collected form an important basis for formulating recommendation strategies. Overall, this study concludes that strengthening village data management, preparing GIS-based planning documents, and developing agribusiness and downstreaming of leading commodities are key strategies for improving food security, boosting agricultural productivity, and accelerating sustainable transmigration area development.
