Sri Mardiyati | Mohammad Natsir

Abstract: This study aims to determine the factors that correlate and affect the institutional revitalization granary that support the strengthening of food self-sufficiency, and to formulate a model of granary institutional revitalization that support the strengthening of food self-sufficiency. This study was conducted in Takalar District, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia, at the three subdistricts (Galesong, North Galesong, North Polombakeng). Sampling was conducted using random (for farmers who are non-members of the granary) and purposive method (for farmer member granary). This type of data is a primary and secondary data. Methods of data analysis is descriptive statistical analysis and SEM (Structural Equation Model). The results of this study indicate that the determinants on granary institutional revitalization is the participation of farmers, the function and role of granary institutional, and supporting systems (structural and cultural). Supporting system significantly positively correlated with functions and roles (91.7%), and were significantly positively correlated with farmers' participation (51.9%). Participation of farmers significantly positively correlated with function and role is 70.2 percent. Factors that influence positively and significantly (94.8%) of the granary institutional revitalization is a supporting system. Institutional revitalization of granary has not significantly influence the level of food self-sufficiency in the local area. Structural model of granary institutional revitalization as strengthening food self-sufficiency resulting from the analysis of SEM is quite feasible and can also be modified models.
