The policies implemented to achieve future targets are implementing various programs such as the Organic Agriculture System Program, Increased Value Added and Competitiveness, and the Food Sovereignty Program. The program is an effort by the Agriculture and Food Security Service of the Province of Bali in increasing production and productivity, increasing food availability, improve programs to consume quality, safe and healthy food, and implement leadership policies. The achievements of the Agriculture and Food Security Service of the Province of Bali are in line with the target based on the results of the Food Security Index which shows that the Province of Bali has the Highest Food Security Index.
