ABSTRACT Extreme climate change affects global food security, especially in developing countries. Rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, and the frequency of natural disasters such as floods and droughts reduce agricultural productivity, affect food quality and increase production costs. In Indonesia, these impacts exacerbate poverty and food insecurity. This study aims to analyze the impact of climate change on rice productivity and evaluate farmers' adaptation to organic, semi-organic, and inorganic approaches to improve food security. This research uses qualitative methods to understand farmers' perceptions, vulnerabilities, and adaptations to climate change in depth. Data collection techniques were conducted through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, documentation, and literature study to understand farmers' experiences and strategies. Data analysis techniques in this study followed Denzin's stages: collection, coding, theme search, critical interpretation, and contextual report writing. The research shows that wetland rice farmers in Karanganyar Village face the impacts of climate change with various adaptation approaches. Organic farmers focus more on ecosystem sustainability and local wisdom, while inorganic farmers rely on chemical inputs and modern technology, which increases environmental risks. Semi-organic farmers combine both approaches. Technical adaptation and collaboration between farmers, government, and non-government organizations are essential to improve food security and welfare amidst climate change. |
