The results showed that 1) the characteristics of the rice farming household on average consisted of 5 family members, the farmer's land area was classified as narrow, the income structure came from the non-agricultural sector, and the expenditure structure was dominated by food consumption. 2) Food security is classified as food insecure. 3) Partially, the number of family members, household expenditure, and education level are variables that affect the food security of rice farming households in Tulungagung.
