The expansion of rice cultivation areas in tidal swamp lands is crucial for Indonesia to increase rice production in order to meet the rising food demand in line with population growth. The purpose of this study is to comprehensively explore and assess innovative technologies that can be developed for rice cultivation in tidal swamp lands. The research was conducted using ScienceDirect (Core Collection) with keywords "Tidal Rice Farming," "Rice Productivity," "Technology," and "Food Security in Indonesia," and Google Scholar with keywords "Rice Production," "Tidal Swamp Rice," and "Indonesia," following the guidelines from PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses). The research includes peer-reviewed studies published between 2014 and 2024, focusing on the recent technology of rice farming in tidal swamp fields. The research result show Tidal swamp land in Indonesia, covering 8.92 million ha with mineral soil 7.56 million ha and peat soil 1.36 million ha, mainly used for rice farming 2.8 million ha. The current rice productivity ranges between 4-5 million tons of unhulled rice per year. This finding concludes that the adoption of innovative technologies can be applied to increase rice productivity in tidal swamps, which holds great potential for enhancing food security in Indonesia. The study also highlights the importance of additional research to address challenges such as soil salinity, water availability, accessibility, and the adoption of these technologies across different tidal swamp land conditions.
