Optimization of Food Sovereignty Policy in the City of Surabaya Through Multicriteria Evaluation Using the Multipol Method

Abstract

This research explores the evaluation of food policy in the city of Surabaya using the MULTIPOL model, with a focus on the performance of various policies against different scenarios. The results of the analysis show that the multi-livestock and integrated livestock edutourism policies received the highest scores, with an average of 15.8 and 15.6, respectively, and a standard deviation of 0.2. These two policies show good suitability for both supply-side and demand-side scenarios, supported by actions such as training and technical guidance, sustainable agricultural development, and crop diversification. These findings provide a deeper understanding of policy alternatives that can be taken in food development in the city of Surabaya, highlighting the importance of appropriate action strategies in achieving the goal of food sovereignty.
