Urban farming is a modern form of adaptation that is responsive to food security challenges, especially in areas with limited space such as Banten Province. This study aims to examine the dynamics of food security in the agrarian region of Banten and offer innovative solutions through urban farming practices. The global food crisis, the shrinking of agricultural land due to development and land conversion, and the decreasing public interest in farming are crucial issues that threaten local food security. In Banten, land conversion has resulted in the loss of more than 9,869.61 hectares of productive rice fields, which has a direct impact on local production capacity and increased dependence on external supplies. As a solution, this study advocates urban farming innovations such as hydroponics, vertical farming, and the utilization of idle land and home gardens. This approach not only utilizes limited land efficiently but also aligns with the principles of wise food planning as exemplified in the story of the Prophet Joseph. Qualitative methods with literature studies and content analysis were used to gather in-depth information. To create sustainable food security, this study identified three main strategies: digitalization of agricultural spatial planning using geographic information systems (GIS) to prevent illegal land conversion; Integrating circular agriculture and urban farming to manage organic waste; and engaging the younger generation as drivers of innovation through technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and digital marketing. These efforts are expected to create high-quality and sustainable food security in Banten Province by combining social intelligence, technology, and environmental sustainability.

The unwise use of electrical energy in households can lead to energy wastage and pose risks such as short circuits, which may result in fires. This research developed a Node-Red-based protection system using an ESP8266 microcontroller and a PZEM 004-T sensor to detect voltage, current, and power in real-time. The system automatically disconnects the current when overload conditions are detected, especially on extension cables. Testing was conducted on household devices such as laptop chargers, fans, and soldering irons. Results demonstrate that the system can accurately monitor current and power, maintain electrical stability, and cut off electricity when the load exceeds the safe threshold, thus reducing fire risk. This implementation is expected to enhance household electrical safety and serve as a reference for further development in IoT-based protection systems.
