Abstract

This article clarifies factors affecting the level of household food security, measured on a subjective basis, in a mountainous area of central Java. Results of our analysis clearly indicate that economic shock affects negatively household food security, and relation networks, size of cultivated area, number of off-farm workers outside the village, numbers of clove trees and the varieties of crops create a positive influence. In addition, regardless of the cultivated area, there is a positive relation between household food security and the numbers of trees and varieties of crops. The findings indicate that agroforestry systems combining cash tree crops and annual food crops can improve household food security in mountainous areas.
