Some of agricultural commodities are still imported
Cereals, tuber & fruit crops as alternatives food sources
In 2008, Indonesia is already self sufficient in rice production

� Increase of food production especially rice is less than that of
requirement due to bio-physical constraints
Land degradation, climate variability, pest and diseases enemy, and
conversion of agricultural land
�Availability of food materials in the global market will become limited
with high price
� Increase price of production inputs and energy
�Limited purchasing power of poor people
�Limited utilization of alternatives local food crops
�Competitive utilization of some food crop’s production with bio-energy
�Lack of infrastructures � irrigation & post harvest

As a prime mover of national and regional economic development,
agriculture plays important and strategic role for Indonesia, therefore,
Indonesian Government gives high priority in National Development
Program.
Strong commitment and good coordination among related stakeholders
with better development approach, strategy, and technology are needed
for improving production and maintaining natural resources
