This study analyzes the feasibility of implementing the Government Purchase Price (HPP) plus 20% incentive policy in Badung Regency to support food security and improve farmers' welfare. This study uses a triangulation method involving surveys of farmers, in-depth interviews with officials and experts, and secondary data analysis to understand the impact of incentive policies on income stability and local food production. The results show that this incentive has the potential to increase farmers' income by up to 18%, provide a more stable price guarantee, and encourage the interest of the younger generation to be involved in the agricultural sector. However, the main challenges in implementing this policy include funding sustainability, supervision effectiveness, and coordination between agencies. Based on these findings, this article provides recommendations for policy strengthening, including diversification of funding sources, application of technology in the surveillance system, and increased socialization among farmers. This research is expected to be the basis for local governments to design more effective and sustainable incentive policies to strengthen the agricultural sector and food security in areas that depend on the tourism sector, such as Badung Regency.
