This problem suggested will threaten sustainability of national rice production.The aims of this study are: (1) to analyze growth of wetland conversion in Indonesia.(2) To identify factors that affect wet land conversion. (3) To identify economicimpacts of wetland conversion, especially on rice production. The data source is fromBPS as time series data from 1978 to 2000. The data and information was analyzed bydescriptive and using tabulation. Some important conclusions are: (1) the wetlandconversion in Java bigger than other region and tend to increase. This conditionindicated that government effort to control wetland conversion was not effective yet.(2) At the macro level, wetland conversion positive associated with GDP growth,negative associated with farmer change value, no associated with increasing population.(3) The rice production losses caused wetland conversion cannot be supported by newwetland construction, so that Indonesia must import rice to suffice staple food, (4)beside improving the accuracy data and law enforcement, the construction newwetland, improvement technology on wet land and up land rice cultivation and,improvement of extension activity should be realized.
