Pekerja Migran dan Kerawanan Pangan Rumah Tangga di Indonesia
Migration has become one of the strategies to improve life, especially in developing countries. Despite many studies analyzing migration's impact on various socioeconomic aspects, the migration and food security nexus remains an open empirical investigation. This research investigates the relationship between internal migrant workers and household food insecurity in Indonesia. We employ the instrumental variable (IV) approach to address the endogeneity of migrant status using representative household survey data at the national level in 2019, 2020, and 2021 utilizing the migration network instrument. Our findings show that internal migrant workers have a statistically significant positive effect on household food security in Indonesia, and the impact is greatest in Sumatra and Kalimantan. In addition, we describe the mechanism by which the impact of internal migrant workers on household food security operates, and we find that knowledge about nutrition and health has the greatest influence. In contrast, income is not significant in mediating the effect. However, spending reallocation for food significantly mediates the impact of migration on household food security, indicating that migrant income will only increase household food security if it is allocated for food. Moreover, it is not certain that a household will consume a variety of foods if it is not mediated by knowledge about nutrition. These findings suggest that promoting campaigns or conducting nutrition education programs is essential to enhance public awareness about the importance of a healthy diet, thus alleviating food insecurity.
