Revitalization of agriculture is basically putting back the importance of agriculture proportionally and urban contextual in both rural and urban areas. Considering the existing condition of agriculture in urban areas, especially Jakarta Province, and linkages with its various environmental problems, it is expected that the development of agriculture would not be sustainable. Thus, it needs designation and formulation of a comprehensive policy for sustainable development of urban agriculture. The study is aimed to analyze the sustainability of urban agriculture as well as the critical factors affecting the sustainability and policy of urban agriculture development. The methods of MDS (multi-dimensional scaling) and Rap-Ur-Agri (Rapid Appraisal for Urban Agriculture) technique are employed for analysis. Meanwhile, key factor analysis uses leverage factor followed by determination of sustainable indices, and policy scenarios that use a prospective analysis method. The results show that the sustainability status of agricultural development on the existing condition of urban areas has an index value of 48.70 percent (i.e., less sustainable). The urban agriculture has four sustainability key factors, while attributes of stakeholders' needs have also four key factors. These eight key factors are merged yielding six key factors that influence the development of urban agricultural systems. Policy for sustainable urban agricultural development of Jakarta Province has to use an integrative approach with consideration of six key factors of agricultural sustainability, namely: (1) Yard acreage, (2) The development of commodity and environmentally sound technology, (3) Extension and agricultural institutions, (4) Availability of land area, (5) Cooperation among stakeholders, and (6) Provision of agricultural incentives. Policy options would encompass extension of land and space for farming, commodities and environmentally-friendly technology development, and agricultural institutional development.

Melihat kondisi pertanian di daerah perkotaan, khususnya DKI Jakarta, dan hubungannya dengan berbagai masalah lingkungan, perlu dirancang dan dirumuskan kebijakan yang komprehensif untuk pengembangan pertanian perkotaan berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis faktor-faktor kunci yang mempengaruhi keberlanjutan dan kebijakan pengembangan pertanian perkotaan. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah MDS (multidimensional scaling) dan teknik Rap-Ur-Agri (Rapid Appraisal for Urban Agriculture). Analisis faktor kunci menggunakan leverage factor yang diikuti dengan penentuan indeks keberkelanjutan dan skenario kebijakan pengembangan pertanian dengan menggunakan metode analisis prospektif. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa status keberlanjutan pengembangan pertanian perkota...
