Irrigation Infrastructure, Intergovernmental Relations, Water Resources, Budget AllocationResumo
This study aims to explore the dynamics of cooperation between the central and regional governments in supporting irrigation policies in Indonesia, focusing on West Java Province. The research uses qualitative analysis methods, examining intergovernmental relations through four main indicators: vertical relations, authority and autonomy, budget allocation, and regulations and institutions. Primary data were obtained through interviews with the Head of the Water Resources Operations and Maintenance Section of West Java Provincial Water Resources Office, while secondary data were collected from official ministry documents. The findings show that support for irrigation infrastructure is still limited due to budget allocations that do not match the extent of irrigated land. The mismatch between national irrigation planning and local conditions in West Java leads to inefficient resource allocation. The study concludes that synergy between the central and regional governments has not yet been fully realized, given the gap in planning and budget allocation, which impacts the implementation of irrigation policies. Therefore, better coordination between the two levels of government is essential to enhance the effectiveness of irrigation infrastructure development, supporting food security and agricultural sustainability in West Java. This study contributes to the theory of intergovernmental relations, emphasizing budget allocation as a critical factor in supporting irrigation policies.
