       The COVID-19   pandemic  has driven attention to Indonesia's food system and food
security for years. The article describes that food security laws and policies during the pandemic
do not have a crisis paradigm by abandoning  the need for inter-governmental interrelation,
resulting in distrust of the imperative ability of legal texts in anticipating their applicability in all
situations. During a pandemic, confidence in food production figures is likely to be a long-term
problem in food availability, access, and utilization. This socio-legal study makes an essential
contribution in critiquing the role of government in developing the crucial function of law in the
more expansive operating space for welfare.

       The COVID-19   pandemic has impacted food security, including nutritional adequacy, in
various ways (Jaime, 2020; Rodriguez-Leyva and Pierce, 2021; Clemente-Suirez et al., 2021),
not only income, but also overall health (Islam et al., 2020). In Brazil's experience, for example,
the impact of food security requires systematic mitigation through state policies (Alpino et al.,
2020; Gurgel et al., 2020). In short, together latent poverty, food insecurity into the effects of the
pandemic  as amplitude too great for other sectors (Pereira and Oliveira, 2020; Mardones et al.,
2020; Han et al., 2021; Anelich et al., 2020; Rizou et al., 2020; Ilesanmi et al., 2021). In the case
of China with its large population and at the beginning of the pandemic, COVID-19 has the
potential threats to agriculture and aquaculture sectors that control almost the total food supply
chain and market (Ma et al., 2021), even when the pandemic period is over (Zhang et al., 2021).
       An excellent work previously (Bakalis et al., 2020), has confirmed that the COVID-19
pandemic necessitates a massive paradigm shift in food security. This paradigm includes the four
distinctive dimensions of food security formulated by FAO (Summerton, 2020). Unfortunately,
social innovation suffers from inequality in this regard (Huang and Tsai, 2021). This social
innovation is important to develop governance in order to increase the sense of wellness in the
