Abstract
This study aims to explain how does the Indonesian government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of food security through Twitter. This type of research is qualitative, using a literature study approach. Finding in this study, the food security agency dominates the response content on Twitter compared to the logistics affairs agency. This answers that the food security agency has a fairly broad scope of duties compared to the logistics affairs agency which only focuses on rice. As well as in the narration on the Twitter accounts of the two institutions that focus on the issue of food security conditions in the Indonesia public. Therefore, if you look at their duties and responsibilities, the two institutions have succeeded in responding to the state of Indonesia’s food security during the COVID-19 pandemic via Twitter. However, there are several notes that must be paid attention to by the two institutions that the response content regarding agricultural conditions is quite minimal.
