This land, owned by Desa Adat Intaran, is still used for\nagricultural activities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSubak Intaran Barat and Subak Intaran Timur, which are productive,\ncover about 80 hectares. We want to revive agriculture as a means of\nfood security,\u201d said BUPDA Intaran Chairman Anak Agung Ketut Gede\nAryateja to detikBali on Friday (8\/5\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Aryateja stressed that the subak land is purely for food defence,\ndiffering from tourism subak. According to him, the types of crops,\nirrigation systems, and planting patterns on that agricultural land\nfollow the subak tradition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor example, if we get an even year, the subak in Desa Adat Intaran\ngets five days of water in one week. The remaining two days are for\nirrigating the neighbouring village. In the following year, our village\ngets only two days, and they get five,\u201d explained Aryateja.<\/p>\n<p>Aryateja acknowledged that the massive development poses a\nsignificant challenge to the agricultural sector in Bali at present. He\nwants to convince landowners not to convert the land\u2019s function.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are just starting this. Because we are looking for models in\nother areas to preserve those 80 hectares of rice fields. The first step\nmight be to absorb the harvest yields,\u201d added Aryateja.<\/p>",
