This research aims to explore the integration of traditional agricultural practices with modern technology in an effort to improve food security in Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach, this study involves interviews, questionnaires, and field observations conducted in two agricultural villages. The results show that technologies such as automated irrigation systems and soil sensors can improve resource use efficiency and crop yields. However, the main challenges faced are limited infrastructure and lack of training for farmers. These findings underscore the importance of the government's role in supporting technological infrastructure in rural areas and providing adequate training for farmers. This research provides practical implications for policymakers in formulating strategies that support the adoption of sustainable agricultural technologies. Although this study has limitations in regional coverage, the results provide important guidance for the development of the agricultural sector in Indonesia.
