Pemerintah terus melakukan upaya pengembangan dan diversifikasi bahan pangan pokok alternatif masyarakat, guna mendukung ketahanan pangan nasional. Dan, dan salah satu komoditas pangan sumber karbohidrat yang berpotensi untuk dikembangkan adalah sagu. Apalagi, Indonesia memiliki luas lahan sagu terbesar di dunia yakni sebesar 85% atau 5,5 juta hektare, dari 6,5 juta hektare lahan sagu di dunia.
Disisi lain, Pemerintah dalam hal ini Kementerian Perindustrian menegaskan akan mendorong pengembangan industri pengolahan sagu, agar memberikan nilai tambah dan memacu penyerapan tenaga kerja di dalam negeri. Menteri Perindustrian Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita mengatakan, Indonesia bisa menjadi salah satu negara pemasok pati sagu terbesar di dunia, dimana sejak tahun 2023 menduduki posisi kedua, dengan nilai ekspor sebesar USD9 juta dolar.
Agus menambahkan, pertumbuhan pasar pati sagu secara global diproyeksikan mencapai USD557 juta. Sehingga, hilirisasi industri sagu diharapkan tidak hanya berhenti sampai di pati sagu, tetapi juga dapat mendorong pertumbuhan produk hilir lainnya, mulai dari produk pangan seperti pati sagu, mi, beras analog, modified starch, hingga produk non-pangan seperti bio packaging.

00:00The government continues to develop alternative food, rice and support the preservation of national food, and one of the potential carbohydrate sources to be developed is sago.
00:30The government continues to develop alternative food, rice and support the preservation of national food, and one of the potential carbohydrate sources to be developed is sago.
00:43Moreover, Indonesia has the world's largest sago land area, which is 85% or 5.5 million hectares of sago land from 6.5 million hectares of sago land in the world.
00:55On the other hand, the government in this matter, the Ministry of Industry, will encourage the development of the sago processing industry to provide added value and promote the absorption of labor in the country.
01:06Minister of Industry Agus Gumiwangkertasasmita said, Indonesia can be one of the largest sago landowners in the world, which since 2023 has been in second place with an export value of US$ 9 million.
01:21Of course, we will promote it because it can also support the preservation of food by making sago as a main source of food outside of rice.
01:37So, the sago that we have to encourage is the local caliphate.
01:43Agus added that the global growth of the sago land market is projected to reach US$ 557 million, so the sago processing industry is expected not only to stop at sago land, but can also encourage the growth of other processing products,
01:57starting from food products such as sago, noodles, analog rice, modified starch, to non-food products such as biopackaging.
02:05From Jakarta, Devin Mansyah, IDX Channel.
02:13Our topic this time is the potential of sago as an alternative source of carbohydrate food.
02:19We have been connected via Zoom with Prof. Muhammad Hashim Bintoro. He is the Chairperson of the Indonesian Sago Community.
02:26Good morning, Prof. Bintoro.
02:28Good morning.
02:30How are you, Prof?
02:31Alhamdulillah.
02:34Thank you. We also have Mr. Trubus Rahadiansa. He is the Chairperson of the Indonesian Public Policy Forum.
02:43Good morning, Mr. Trubus.
02:45Good morning.
02:47How are you?
02:49I'm doing well.
02:51Thank you.
02:53Thank you.
02:55Before we start, can you give us an update?
02:58Maybe Prof. Bintoro can give us an insight about the benefits and the current condition of sago cultivation in Indonesia.
03:10Prof. Bintoro, please.
03:12Thank you.
03:14It has been said that there are 5.5 million hectares of sago in Indonesia, while there are 6.5 million hectares of sago in the world.
03:25Okay.
03:26So, 85% of the world's sago is in Indonesia.
03:32Then, from my research, from Aceh to Maluku, one tree can contain 200 to 400 kilograms.
03:50So, in hectares, there are about 20 to 40 tons per hectare.
03:58Yes.
03:59That's outside of Papua. In Papua, in Mapi, South Papua, one tree can contain up to 1.197 or 1.2 tons of dried sago per tree.
04:14So, if I look at it, if the government now encourages sago cultivation,
04:21for one hectare of sago, if it becomes rice, it's about 6 tons.
04:27Yes.
04:28That's the best.
04:29For me, that's enough for 5 to 6 trees.
04:33So, actually, it's not about our potential.
04:38Okay.
04:39But, there's still potential, because not everything has been harvested yet.
04:44Not everything has been harvested yet.
04:46If everything is harvested, actually, we can feed 1 million people.
04:52Hmm, okay.
04:53So, if Indonesia now has 270 million people,
04:59if we multiply it by 5, the population will increase, and we can still feed them.
05:06So, actually, if we use sago, we don't need to import flour.
05:13We don't need to import rice.
05:16Okay.
05:17We don't need to import sugar.
05:20It all comes from sago.
05:24On the other hand, sago is the majority in Indonesia.
05:29If we buy sago, it means we provide employment opportunities for Indonesians.
05:35If we import anything from abroad, whether it's rice, wheat, or sugar,
05:41it means we're helping foreign farmers.
05:45Helping foreign farmers.
05:47Okay.
05:48We have potential.
05:49Okay.
05:50Prof. Bintoro.
05:51Yes.
05:52Can you explain how sago is used?
05:58How is it used?
06:00How is it consumed?
06:02Yes.
06:03So, like this.
06:04Now, what is very popular is sago rice.
06:10We can make it.
06:12Because it's made, we can taste it too.
06:16What flavor do you want?
06:18There are various flavors.
06:19Okay.
06:20You can choose what you want to taste.
06:22Do you want fried rice?
06:23Do you want seaweed rice?
06:24What kind of rice do you want?
06:25So, we just have to eat it.
06:27Okay.
06:28There are also noodles.
06:29Noodles are also a variety of flavors.
06:33Not to mention, if we look at sugar from sago, it's also possible.
06:37Sugar from sago.
06:39Then, if we look at the original food,
06:44we can see that there are papeda, kakurung, sinonggi, sago.
06:50There are various kinds of sago.
06:52Okay.
06:53Those that have been inventoried.
06:58In Riau, there are 369 kinds of sago.
07:04Okay.
07:05Not yet in Maluku.
07:06In Maluku, there are about 400-500 kinds.
07:08Not to mention other regions.
07:10Okay.
07:12All over Indonesia, there are various kinds of sago.
07:17Okay.
07:18Prof. Bintro, let's go straight to Mr. Trubus.
07:20Alantas, how is it from your point of view?
07:22Yes.
07:23The review from Mr. Trubus,
07:25Indonesian Public Policy Forum,
07:27related to the literacy of the people,
07:29related to alternative foods,
07:31what has it been like all this time?
07:34Yes.
07:35In my opinion,
07:37the literacy of the people towards what we call B2SA food,
07:44it is diverse, it contains...
07:52Yes, hello.
07:55Okay, Mr. Bintro.
07:57Yes.
08:01Hello, Mr. Trubus.
08:02Mr. Trubus.
08:06Yes, hello.
08:07Yes, there was a freeze.
08:10Hello.
08:11Yes, can you repeat it again, Mr. Trubus?
08:13The signal was a bit disturbed.
08:14Can I do it now?
08:15Yes, you can do it now, sir.
08:19Yes.
08:23So, in my opinion,
08:25B2SA, the policy of B2SA,
08:27the literacy of the people is still minimal.
08:30Okay.
08:31The policy of B2SA,
08:33the policy is more directed to the rice.
08:35The people who use alternative foods
08:38are left behind.
08:41Then, the people themselves,
08:44the millennial people,
08:46maybe they know,
08:48there are some who don't know
08:50this kind of food,
08:52this alternative food.
08:54Second, the political will of the government itself
08:57is very weak in this matter.
08:59Okay.
09:01The policy is often said,
09:03often conveyed,
09:05but there is no clear,
09:07comprehensive regulation policy.
09:09What should it be like?
09:10For example,
09:11the obligations
09:13should be applied
09:16in various areas,
09:18in various provinces,
09:20in provinces or cities.
09:22Yes.
09:23So that the people
09:25are educated to use alternative foods.
09:27It's minimal.
09:29So, the people only act on their own.
09:31For example, those who like ketela,
09:33they eat ketela.
09:34Those who like sago, they eat sago.
09:36But sago is only for certain areas.
09:38In Java,
09:39sago is not well-known.
09:41Papit food.
09:43For example,
09:45the kind of porridge,
09:47it's more like rice porridge.
09:50Okay.
09:51From rice,
09:52which is more well-known.
09:54So, the government itself,
09:56is half-hearted in this matter.
09:58So, this alternative food,
10:00it's more like,
10:02as a complementary,
10:04it doesn't become mandatory.
10:07It's just a kind of voluntary.
10:09The policy is just optional.
10:11So, that's the problem.
10:13Then, the sago cultivation,
10:15if it's explained,
10:17it's wide enough,
10:18very good potential,
10:20the government should do it immediately.
10:22We take it step by step,
10:23because it takes a long time to plant sago.
10:25It takes 6-7 years.
10:26It's different if it's rice.
10:27Sago is planted for 35 days,
10:29then harvested.
10:30So, this should be educated to the people.
10:33So that, for example,
10:35for sago, usually,
10:37it's in areas with a lot of water.
10:39So, how about for areas
10:41with a little water?
10:43This should also be educated to the people.
10:46So that the people have a view,
10:48have a literacy knowledge
10:50about this sago.
10:52Yes. It's interesting.
10:53It's related to literacy.
10:54So, on the one hand,
10:55the government also continues to look for
10:57substitutes for other crops,
10:59other than rice.
11:00So that to maintain national food,
11:02we can be stable in the future.
11:04We will see which areas
11:06have been the center,
11:08then how the production is.
11:10We will discuss it later in the next segment.
11:12Prof. Bintoro and Mr. Rupus,
11:14we will take a break for a while.
11:15And Mr. Mirsa, we will be back
11:17after the next break.
11:24Thank you for joining us in Market Review.
11:26In the next segment,
11:27we will provide you with data
11:28related to the area of sago production
11:30in Indonesia, anywhere.
11:32Yes, you can see the complete data
11:34on the television screen.
11:35First, Riau, then Maluku,
11:37and also Papua.
11:39And next, the content of sago nutrition
11:41per 100 grams,
11:42there are 83 grams of sago.
11:44So, if you want to know more,
11:46you can go to our website,
11:48www.indonesia.gov.
11:50Thank you.
11:55Then, 0.1 grams of protein,
11:590.3 grams of fat,
12:00then 4.5 grams of fiber,
12:02then 30 milligrams of calcium,
12:04and 30 milligrams of phosphorus.
12:06Next, the benefits of sago,
12:08whatever it is,
12:09it provides additional energy for the body,
12:11then increases stamina,
12:13healthens the digestive tract,
12:14then controls blood sugar,
12:16fights free radicals,
12:17and also reduces the risk of heart disease.
12:20Okay, we will continue again,
12:22with Prof. Muhammad Hasim Bintoro,
12:24Chairperson of the Indonesian Sago Community,
12:26and also Mr. Terubos Rahadiansah,
12:28Chairperson of the Indonesian Public Policy Forum.
12:30Okay, Prof. Bintoro,
12:31maybe you can tell us,
12:32it was briefly mentioned earlier,
12:34how is the level of understanding of the community
12:36that still needs to be educated,
12:38spread more,
12:39more massive,
12:40benefits related to alternative food
12:42besides rice.
12:43Now, where is this going?
12:45What has been the sago planting center
12:48that has been mentioned earlier?
12:49Then, what is the area of sago plantation
12:52currently?
12:53Prof, please.
12:54Okay, thank you.
12:56So, sago is a community in Papua,
12:59the land of Papua.
13:03So, what was Mr. Terubos Singgung,
13:06as a farmer,
13:08actually now the position is left to harvest, sir.
13:11Okay.
13:12Yes, because sago grows like a banana,
13:15many children,
13:17so in one sago plantation,
13:19there are several that can be harvested.
13:21Yes.
13:22So, what we have to pay attention to,
13:24the harvest must be chosen,
13:26the one that is properly harvested.
13:28So, don't say there is a branch that is harvested,
13:31later next year it will be harvested.
13:33So, one sago plantation is taken,
13:36later several sago plantations,
13:38one hectare can be more than 100 sago plantations.
13:41Okay.
13:42So, it can be harvested one by one,
13:44that's why the results are varied,
13:47between 20 to 40 tons per hectare.
13:50Yes.
13:51The advantage of sago is,
13:53the glycemic is low,
13:55then there is no gluten,
13:59high resistance,
14:01that is for people over 60 years old,
14:04it is very important,
14:06because it can be a food,
14:09as well as a medicine.
14:12Actually, sago is not only in Papua,
14:15but also in Maupu Islands,
14:17North and South,
14:19in Sulawesi Tenggara,
14:21especially Sulawesi,
14:23Sulawesi Tenggara,
14:25there are many,
14:26if Sulawesi is different,
14:27there are at least 2,000 to 3,000 hectares,
14:29in Central Sulawesi,
14:31South Sulawesi,
14:33or in Gorontalo,
14:35North Sulawesi,
14:37there are also many in small islands.
14:39As I said earlier,
14:40there are many in Mentawai,
14:42in Kepri,
14:43in Aceh,
14:44but many of them don't know,
14:46they only know it as a food.
14:49Okay.
14:50Even though it is for our food,
14:53healthy food.
14:55Actually, our ancestors,
14:58their main food was sago,
15:01because before the agricultural power came in,
15:04they were dependent on nature,
15:06dependent on nature,
15:08from trees,
15:09from sago.
15:10Because of that,
15:11in Central Java,
15:13it is known as sego.
15:15Sego and sago are close.
15:17Yes, sago.
15:19Sago, right?
15:21Yes.
15:22Even according to anthropology,
15:24in the past,
15:25sego and segol were different.
15:27Sego is from sago,
15:29segol is from paddy.
15:31Paddy, yes.
15:32It's been a long time,
15:33so it's called ngopo and gromo.
15:36That's it.
15:37Okay.
15:38So, if we just harvest it,
15:40why do we have to cut the sago,
15:42make it into paddy,
15:43make it into rice paddy?
15:45Even though it's for planting,
15:46we just harvest it.
15:47Okay.
15:48The harvest alone is not good.
15:50Okay.
15:51Prof. Bintoro,
15:52what is the method of processing sago
15:54to become an alternative food
15:56and also its offspring?
15:58Is there already modern technology there
16:00or how?
16:02Actually, there is already technology, sir.
16:04But it hasn't spread yet.
16:06Okay.
16:07If the people,
16:08conventionally,
16:09it's still in the shops,
16:11using iron.
16:12Yes.
16:13But now, it's been grated.
16:14Okay.
16:15So, in Papua,
16:16it's already grated.
16:17Grated, yes.
16:18Grated.
16:19Later, after it's grated,
16:20it's still mixed with
16:22what is it,
16:25what is it,
16:26of course,
16:27with the rice paddy.
16:28Later, it's mixed.
16:30If in Papua,
16:31it's still traditional,
16:32it's crushed.
16:33Okay.
16:34If in Papua,
16:35it's just mixed.
16:36Later,
16:37the rice paddy is separated
16:38from the rice husk.
16:39Yes.
16:40Later, the rice husk,
16:41the rice husk
16:42can be used as a briquette,
16:44can be used as
16:45an energy source, yes.
16:47It can be used as fertilizer,
16:49it can be used as
16:50a material for
16:51mushrooms.
16:52Now, this is the rice paddy,
16:53the flour,
16:54the rice paddy,
16:55it's dried.
16:56Actually,
16:57if you want to use it directly,
16:58it must be wet,
17:00you can.
17:01But because you want to dry it,
17:02it's usually dried first, yes.
17:04Okay, okay.
17:05So, our problem is
17:07moving from the rice paddy area
17:09to those who want to eat the rice paddy,
17:11that's the minimum.
17:13So, if the government
17:14builds infrastructure,
17:16the rice husk will be cheap.
17:18Now, the rice husk is expensive
17:20because the rice husk is expensive.
17:22Okay.
17:23If the goods,
17:24you have to take it.
17:25Do you need a special treatment,
17:27Professor,
17:28when we want to have a shipment,
17:29maybe from the center
17:31to distribute to the region
17:33or other areas,
17:34for this rice husk?
17:36It was said earlier
17:37that the fat content is low,
17:39the protein content is low,
17:40so it's enough to be dried.
17:42Now, this experience,
17:44the rice husk industry
17:46in Tangerang,
17:47in Tantan,
17:49the rice husk
17:51has not been damaged
17:52for three years.
17:53Okay.
17:55If it's rice,
17:56after three months,
17:57the husk starts to appear.
17:59The rice husk is low in protein,
18:03so it lasts long.
18:05Yes.
18:07Okay, Professor.
18:08This is related to the government's effort,
18:10especially the Ministry of Industry,
18:11which is promoting the speed of development
18:13of the rice husk industry
18:14or hillarization there
18:16to increase the added value
18:18and also promote employment
18:20if we talk about the industry.
18:22So, how?
18:23The policy is already on the track,
18:25in the sense that it is in line with the hope
18:26that the rice husk development
18:28will be an alternative food.
18:30Yes, if we want to achieve that hope,
18:33there must be a policy
18:35of collaborative synergy
18:37between the Ministry of Industry
18:39and the Ministry of Agriculture.
18:42Also, there is a block
18:44and national rice husk.
18:46Yes.
18:47So, that's the most special part
18:49where then,
18:51this collaborative synergy
18:53hopes that
18:55the industry
18:57related to rice husk
18:59will be able to be used
19:01for consumption.
19:03Maybe it's a priority.
19:05A priority as a main food.
19:08A main food.
19:10Then, later on,
19:12the people are no longer
19:14served with rice.
19:16Then, the problem is,
19:18this policy needs
19:20this, what is it called,
19:22the legowo attitude.
19:23Because all this time,
19:24we have been addicted to rice,
19:26if there is no rice,
19:28we will only import.
19:30So, are we willing
19:32to not import?
19:34Because the interests of the group
19:36is the government itself
19:38that needs to import.
19:40Secondly, I see that
19:42what Provintoro has said
19:44is the advantages
19:46of the rice husk
19:48which then must be,
19:50we mentioned it earlier,
19:52but also how the regional government
19:54creates a policy
19:56of regulation, especially
19:58how to form regions
20:00that require it all.
20:02So, included in it,
20:04there is a kind of
20:06attention from the regional government,
20:08for example, the form of subsidy.
20:10If it doesn't need a lot of rice husk,
20:12then maybe with
20:14other subsidies,
20:16including the transportation earlier,
20:18maybe what needs to be considered,
20:20so that this infrastructure
20:22can be very supportive
20:24of the existence of rice husk.
20:26So, this rice husk,
20:28because of the local knowledge,
20:30so how can this then break,
20:32meaning brought to
20:34areas like in Java,
20:36for example, or other areas that
20:38so far, in quotation marks,
20:40some know, some don't know.
20:42So, this is the need of the regional government.
20:44It means here, the role of the regional government
20:46is at the provincial level,
20:48to the city, to the village level,
20:50the village heads,
20:52the regional government must also
20:54convey it like that.
20:56Then, the third, in my opinion,
20:58this is important, how then,
21:00because this involves food,
21:02and food security overall,
21:04the central government
21:06and the regional government
21:08then identify
21:10by working with, of course,
21:12Mr. Bintoro and his friends
21:14who have the capacity there,
21:16which areas whose potential
21:18can be developed broadly.
21:20So, earlier, the data was just in Rio,
21:22it was in Papua,
21:24then earlier, Mr. Bintoro mentioned
21:26it was in Maluku, Maluku Utara, for example.
21:28But now, which areas,
21:30for example, Central Java, West Java, East Java,
21:32for example, must be developed,
21:34or in MTB, for example.
21:36So, these areas are the ones that make it possible,
21:38especially those close to water.
21:40So, how then,
21:42if the water is a little,
21:44the government also makes policies
21:46on water supply, right?
21:48So, there is a work complexity,
21:50the absorption of labor is very important.
21:52So, it's not just for the poor,
21:54it's for everyone.
21:56But how then,
21:58they are brought to the issue
22:00of creating jobs,
22:02but the work complexity.
22:04So, the form of irrigation and so on,
22:06which later
22:08will give added value,
22:10added value for
22:12alternative food development,
22:14one of them is sago, right?
22:16Okay, thank you.
22:18It's interesting.
22:20What do you think, Prof. Bintoro,
22:22if we have to look at the development
22:24towards more massive policies,
22:26coordination policies between local governments,
22:28and how big is the demand
22:30if we look at the potential for sago?
22:34So, I agree.
22:36So, actually, we have to
22:38do a pentahelix.
22:40Five groups work together.
22:42The government,
22:44the central government, the regional government,
22:46including the civil servants,
22:48then the researchers,
22:50high-level researchers
22:52in research institutes,
22:54businessmen must be included,
22:56traditional figures,
22:58community figures,
23:00and also mass media.
23:02What spreads widely is mass media.
23:06So, in my opinion,
23:08sago can be developed
23:10in remote areas.
23:12If there's no water,
23:14the water must be available.
23:16In Java, for example,
23:18or other places,
23:20just by the river,
23:22plant sago on the left and right.
23:24That's a few hectares.
23:26So, it doesn't disturb the area.
23:28Even if there's rice,
23:30paddy, corn, all kinds of things,
23:32it's not disturbed.
23:34Just by the river,
23:3610 meters, plant sago.
23:38That's a few trees.
23:40So, it can provide food.
23:42And what we haven't done yet,
23:44as I said earlier,
23:46should be,
23:48from the government,
23:50from the Ministry of Health,
23:52because it can act as a medicine
23:54for diabetes,
23:56obesity,
23:58and other diseases.
24:00The doctors give the recipe
24:02in the form of food.
24:04So, if all the doctors
24:06in the Ministry of Health
24:08say that, we have to play.
24:10So, now,
24:12if there's an emergency,
24:14don't send
24:16flour,
24:18but sago noodles.
24:20Don't send rice, but sago rice.
24:22Okay.
24:24On the ring of fire,
24:26there's an earthquake almost every day.
24:28Okay.
24:30In the north, in the south, in the east,
24:32there's always an earthquake.
24:34So, if only 10%
24:36of people
24:38eat sago,
24:40we won't be able to
24:42fight it anymore.
24:44Okay. So, the challenge is still there,
24:46but the optimism and potential
24:48is still wide open.
24:50It's just that the focus
24:52on the sago community
24:54will be used
24:56more widely
24:58to maintain national food
25:00and as an alternative food
25:02to rice or accompany rice.
25:04If we still see
25:06some of our people
25:08consume rice.
25:10Prof. Wintoro, thank you very much
25:12for your time and sharing.
25:14Then, Mr. Terubus, thank you
25:16for the insight you've given
25:18related to policies
25:20in our food sector,
25:22especially sago today.
25:24Congratulations on continuing your activity again.
25:26See you again.
25:28Salam sehat, Prof. Wintoro and Mr. Terubus.
25:30Thank you.
