Paddy Granaries, Degradation, Spatial Analysis, Urban Planning, Rice SecurityAbstract
This study aims to explores the extent of granaries degradation to assess the development pressures from surrounding area, primarily from the Greater Kota Bharu area while also take account of existing land development control mechanism. The scope is granaries under the Kemubu Agriculture Development Authority (KADA). Employing a comprehensive methodology that incorporates spatial analysis and field verification which includes document review and stakeholder interviews. Analysis identified a significant rate of 8% decline in paddy granaries between 2020 and 2021, corresponding to an annual reduction of 3,342 tons in rice production. The research pinpointed physical degradation, socio-economic factors, and climate uncertainties as the key contributing factors to the degradation, decline was corroborated through field verification involving stakeholders. Analysis of policy documents revealed discrepancies in policy interpretation and implementation between federal and state levels. Socio-economic plays a major role in driving farmers motivation to stay in the activity and its ability to replenish human capital. Understanding of degradation is key as it reflect the ability of policy to address the issue and farmers motivation on the ground influencing paddy production thus effecting national rice security.
