This theory emphasizes technological innovation, risk management and community involvement in the realization of food security in Jakarta. Because he is considering food supply, one of which was rice at the food station, he is still not sufficient for the consumer needs of the people of Jakarta with a fulfillment capacity of no more than four days. He concluded that the food security policy conducted by PT food Station Tjipinang Jaya still needs to be improved. He considered that the existing regulations did not explicitly regulate the management of regional food reserves according to food stations, so that Jakarta did not yet have its own food reserves and still received supplies from outside the regions such as Java and Lambung. “More than 90% were imported from outside the region,” Dalimunthe said in his thesis hearing.
