Description
Summary:This study aims to assess the social impact of land acquisition on relocated farmers who are displaced due to land acquisition. Delays in infrastructure development will have a broad impact. Law Number 2 of 2012 concerning Land Acquisition for Development in the Public Interest addresses the classic problem of infrastructure project development: land acquisition. Eviction due to land acquisition will cause various potential interrelated risks for the affected community, including loss of housing, marginalization, morbidity and mortality problems, and loss of access to collective ownership. This research method uses the Livelihood Vulnerability Index (LVI) approach to assess the response capacity in addressing the risk of change due to the release of agricultural land from external parties, such as the government in the case of land acquisition for Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA). The study results show that the economic and sociological approaches allow the LVI model to reveal the economic, social, and cultural impacts of relocated farmers after 10 years of land acquisition. The value of land compensation must be comparable to the assets taken over in land acquisition. This can be done by increasing response capacity through commercial property ownership, variation in income sources, and job training.   Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2024-05-04-07 Full Text: PDF
