Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) becomes the household phrase recently. On the other hand, urban farming activities attract public attention in spite of food supply sustainability. Hence, combining both into a project should be remarkable. “Balkot-Farm” is a Jakarta City Government’s initiative to apply IoT in urban farming that exploits vacant lands and spaces within the city hall area. It started in August 2019 after several meetings that involve four city government offices, such as Communication & Information (CI), Maritime, Fishery & Food Security (FS), Health (HO), and General Bureau (GB). The Governor of Jakarta supervises the “Balkot-Farm” through TGUPP or the Governor’s Delivery Unit. Using IoT, the five Jakarta government offices have developed collaboration capacity. CI sets up the technology, FS supplies the plants, fertilizers, and related farming needs, HO provides family-medicinal plants. Meanwhile, the GB assembles the land, water, and electricity. Furthermore, the IoT contributes to project integrity and governance. Through the website (http://balkotfarm.jakarta.go.id), all parties can manage farming and monitor data remotely. The McKinsey Model stated that IoT must pay attention to three important aspects: (1) asset coordination & collaboration; (2) production system; & (3) human factors. This study employs a descriptive qualitative procedure to gain lessons from the Balkot-Farm pilot project. The findings show that IOT played a significant role at the beginning due to its novelty effects. In addition, the government offices were able to build trust among them because the IoT offered a real-time monitoring system. “Balkot-Farm” can run properly because IOT helps to solve daily problems in farming management. Eventually, each government office can deliver routine reports with credibility and integrity.
