President Prabowo Subianto has always shown a special interest in farmers, as noted by Dedek Prayudi from the Presidential Communication Office (PCO). This connection dates back to Prabowo’s time in the military and his leadership of the Indonesian Farmers Harmony Association (HKTI). Recently, during a corn harvest event in Bengkulu, Prabowo emphasized the importance of food security, especially in light of global challenges that may impact Indonesia’s food supply. With government support, farmers are encouraged to increase production and access subsidized resources to improve yields. Additionally, the National Food Agency is collaborating with the State Logistics Agency to support farmers and integrate supply chains for better economic outcomes. This initiative aims to not only boost agricultural productivity but also ensure the well-being of farmers and livestock breeders. The efforts have been well received by local officials and community members, highlighting the significance of supporting Indonesia’s agriculture sector for sustainable food security.
