“…Hasil ini sejalan dengan penelitian Kusumo (2009) yang menyatakan bahwa sebagian keluarga petani padi tidak terlalu merasakan kesulitan dalam hal memenuhi kebutuhan pangan, baik pada musim tanam maupun musim paceklik. Menurut Mardiharini (2005) strategi yang paling efektif dipilih keluarga dalam menyikapi dampak krisis adalah dengan mengurangi pengeluaran untuk makanan dan nonmakanan serta meningkatkan produktivitas usaha. Pada batas tertentu, pengeluaran pangan tidak bisa dikurangi lagi, baik jumlah maupun jenisnya.…”

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh karakteristik keluarga dan tekanan ekonomi terhadap strategi koping keluarga petani di daerah rawan banjir, Kabupaten Kebumen. Keluarga petani yang terlibat dalam penelitian berjumlah 100 keluarga terdiri atas 50 keluarga dari Desa Kemujan dan 50 keluarga dari Desa Tegalsari. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis deskriptif, uji beda t, dan uji regresi linier berganda. Keluarga petani mempersepsikan tekanan ekonomi keluarga mereka pada kategori sedang. Strategi koping ekonomi yang dilakukan keluarga petani juga tergolong sedang, akan tetapi untuk kategori intensitas melakukan strategi koping keluarga petani pada tingkat rendah. Tekanan ekonomi keluarga meningkat dengan bertambahnya jumlah tanggungan keluarga dan jenis bantuan pemerintah yang pernah diterima. Sebaliknya, tekanan ekonomi keluarga menurun seiring bertambahnya luas rumah-pekarangan dan juga perubahan status kepemilikan rumah dari tidak memiliki rumah ke memiliki rumah. Tekanan ekonomi keluarga berpengaruh pada strategi koping baik dari sisi jumlah maupun intensitasnya. Faktor lain yang menentukan strategi koping keluarga adalah adalah usia suami, pekerjaan sampingan suami, dan pekerjaan istri. Banyaknya dan intensitas strategi koping yang dilakukan keluarga bertambah dengan bertambahnya usia suami dan kepemilikan pekerjaan pada istri. Banyaknya strategi koping yang dilakukan juga bertambah dengan suami memiliki pekerjaan sampingan. Penelitian ini menunjukkan eratnya hubungan antara tekanan ekonomi dengan strategi koping keluarga petani di daerah rawan banjir. Kata kunci: daerah rawan banjir, keluarga petani, strategi koping, tekanan ekonomi

“…Studies found significant association of food insecure households with borrowing money/food and selling valuable materials [26,27], which is similar to our findings. Norhasmah et al (2010), Mardiharini (2005) and Agbola (2008) identified that households during food insecurity, tended to borrow money from friends and relatives, sell or pawn own assets to get cash and purchase food on credit [15], [13], [28]. Borrowing money from friends or relative could be considered positive but selling or pawning to get money is very negative strategy; this strategy may lead to an immediate solution to decrease food insecurity level but it is not a sustainable approach.…”

“…Little research has looked at the impact of chronic food insecurity in countries experiencing the nutrition transition. During food insecurity, households adopt certain strategies or plan strategically to minimize its impact [12]- [13]. It is important to understand these strategies so as to identify what is being done at household or micro-level and how the communities cope up with the situations of food insecurity.…”

Present research was conducted to understand the coping strategies adopted by urban poor in threecountries: The United States (US), Belize and India. Additionally, the coping strategies were classified into those common to the three countries and those which were unique to a particular country as well. Research was crosssectional based on convenience sampling of families receiving care at selected health centers and clinics. Total sample size was 219 (US, n=53, Belize, n=61; Indian=105). A semi-structured interview was used to collect data on household food security, coping mechanisms, health status and demography. Additionally, the participants were measured for weight. Standard univariate analysis was conducted using SPSS (version-16).The US had highest prevalence of food insecure families (83%), followed by Belize (62.3%), and India (57.1%). A total of 146 food insecure respondents were interviewed on coping strategies. Common coping strategies adopted by households from all three countries included relying on low-cost cheap foods/seasonal foods, decreasing portion size or number of meals consumed in a day, relying on help from relatives, neighbors and friends during food scarcity, use of resources or savings, pawning, use of government programs, migration of one or more family member, and buying foods on discounts. Strategies unique to a specific country, included praying/ believing in God for help, having back gardens, relying on soup kitchens or religious institutions for food distribution, purchasing food on credit from local grocery shops, starting part-time work to supplement regular employment, freezing food to be consumed during need, and bulk purchase of food items. In conclusion, people were found to adopt coping strategies as an expression of negotiated decisions to minimize the impact of food insecurity. The strategies which are common could be used as foundation to develop interventions to alleviate hunger. Positive, unique strategies could be used to develop interventions which are culturally appropriate, wherever possible.
