Abstract

The background of this research is the politics of eradicating the rice mafia, now it is common knowledge that there is politics in rice commodity activities. This is the focus of the problem. Doing this research, the researcher wants to do an analysis how does rice commodity politics occur and what is the eradication mechanism. By looking at the focus of this problem, it will be seen how the politics of eradicating the rice mafia is carried out in suppressing crime in rice trading activities. This study uses a constructivist paradigm, a qualitative approach with data collection techniques, namely interviews and data documentation. The theory used in this study is the Organized Crime Theory in the form of illegitimate/unfair business practices, underground economy, legitimate business and money laundering. The results of research on the Political Research Title for the Eradication of the Food Mafia in Theory and Practice are found updating of the Rice Supply Chain Supervision System Di Between these distribution channels, termination of the rice distribution chain can occur which results in the loss of traceability by the user. However, to detect the termination of the rice supply chain, the government can scan the latest QR Code issued by stakeholders so that the stopping point of the rice supply chain can be identified. Real-Time Monitoring and Traceability System With comprehensive tracing using a QR code, it is possible to identify the constraints that occur in each existing rice supply chain. For example, the supply chain was broken at one point due to hoarding or playing on the price of rice (whether it was still unhulled or already turned into rice).Geographic Information System (GIS) as a breakthrough in presenting data in Monitoring and Traceability of the rice supply chain Ge Graphic Information System used for presenting data results from traceability-based monitoring system processes. Paddy production data resulting from the monitoring process can be presented through GIS by showing several polygons in a certain area, because a polygon can represent spatial features that have areas, so that the presentation of the data needed in production can be easily monitored as efficiently and effectively as possible.
