Presiden Prabowo Subianto memiliki target Indonesia swasembada pangan dalam waktu 4 tahun ke depan, termasuk swasembada gula.
Plt Direktur Jenderal Perkebunan Kementerian Pertanian (Kementan) Heru Tri Widarto, mengatakan bahwa swasembada gula ini bisa segera dicapai melalui intensifikasi, mulai dari kualitas bibit hingga pengelolaan lahan. Di samping itu, Heru mengungkap bahwa pemerintah melalui Kementan juga akan menggenjot produksi lahan eksisting
“Jadi dengan peningkatan produksi eksisting lahan yang ada, itu insya Allah di 2028 bisa swasembada gula konsumsi,” kata Heru . Ia menambahkan, untuk sementara ini tidak ada perubahan lahan untuk memproduksi gula konsumsi.

00:00The government said it was able to reach the consumption level of sugarcane in 2028 and the industry level of sugarcane in 2030.
00:24However, the progress to reach the level of sugarcane is still imagined by the high level of sugar importation at this time.
00:35In 2023, the government introduced the President's Regulation or PR Press No. 40 of 2023
00:42on the acceleration of the national level of sugarcane and the provision of bioethanol as a natural fuel.
00:48The PR Press was the guide to reach the consumption level of sugarcane that was targeted in 2028
00:56and the industry level of sugarcane that was targeted in 2030.
01:01The Director-General of the Ministry of Agriculture, Heru Triwidarto, as quoted by the media, said
01:07the target of the level of sugarcane can be achieved through intensification
01:11starting from the quality of seeds to the management of land.
01:14In addition, Heru said that the government through the government will also accelerate the production of existing land.
01:20And with the increase in existing land production, the optimistic government in the level of sugar consumption can be achieved in 2028 according to the target.
01:30However, the process to reach the level of sugarcane is still imagined by the high level of national sugar importation at this time.
01:36Throughout January to September 2024, the level of sugar import reached US$2.14 billion with a volume of 3,663 tons.
01:45However, the volume of imported sugar fell from the same period last year, which was 3,713 tons.
01:51Berbagi Sumber, Aidek Channel.
02:21Mr. Sumitro, it is interesting if we talk about the government's targets to achieve the level of sugar supply.
02:29But before discussing further, maybe you can update first on the current condition of the national sugar industry,
02:36what is the production like, and what is the intake like?
02:40Especially, maybe from the previous side, please.
02:45Okay.
02:48I want to convey the conditions of the beginning of this year.
02:53Indeed, from the beginning, I often say that we have to validate the data.
02:59So our data has to be true, how much our area area is, so that later we can calculate how much production will be next year,
03:11and how much it will increase every year.
03:13If we don't verify our initial data, then we will be bankrupt because of our own efforts.
03:21So we have to be true, we don't have to be shy to admit where at this time, for example, we verify the data,
03:28it turns out that the data is different from what we delivered yesterday.
03:32Yesterday's data is enough.
03:34Let's do nothing with this new government.
03:37Our mind, our spirit is new.
03:39We don't have to deceive ourselves, we don't have to deceive others.
03:44From this, I want to convey that it turns out that this year's national production
03:49seems to be below the prediction that was delivered by the government this year.
03:57Yesterday, at that time, I didn't know because I only knew this data,
04:02there is an estimate that the production is more than 2.5 million tons.
04:06But from our last study, our production is not far from 2.2 million tons.
04:12Less or more, we are not final, because the last report is not yet available.
04:16Therefore, we have to be honest about this data, which is wrong.
04:22Are we really because of El Nino, which will be used later,
04:26because of the excess heat, so that the product drops, or are we wrong to calculate?
04:33Because from the beginning, I said that the calculation of our area,
04:37I'm not so sure that our area is more than 500,000 hectares.
04:43Invite me, what is my tool, but I'm not sure that our area is enough.
04:49Secondly, as stated earlier, in accordance with Regulation No. 40 of 2023,
04:55we hope that in 2028 we will be a bridge in terms of meeting the needs for sugar consumption.
05:05Then in the next two years, all sugar, both consumption and industry,
05:09we must be able to meet the demand.
05:11Then added to President Trabowo's data at the end of the training on October 20th last year,
05:17that is a good hope.
05:21We must be able to be independent in the field of food and even in the field of energy.
05:26This is a heavy burden for all of us if we do not improve our initial data.
05:31Why? Now many people are talking about what to meet in 2028,
05:37we will have a land extension.
05:39Let's also study the existence of a land extension in Merauke.
05:45People can say, we will plant 2 million paddy fields there, okay, it's okay.
05:512 million paddy fields there, okay, it's okay.
05:54That's our motivation so that we can get there.
05:57But let's think with a cool head.
06:00Making paddy fields is different from making paddy fields.
06:05Because if we make paddy fields, we have to be followed by sugar factories.
06:11So if we think well, okay, we believe that in 2027,
06:18there will be an addition there, for example, 500,000 hectares.
06:23New land in Merauke.
06:25Sugar factories have to stand.
06:27Can 500,000 hectares of land be absorbed by what is planned?
06:34Konon said there are 5 large sugar factories that want to stand there.
06:39It can't be.
06:40It can't be.
06:41If it can't be, can the paddy fields be planted?
06:44For example, I once again feel good.
06:47Only 500,000 hectares have been planted.
06:50Where is it?
06:51The paddy fields can't be harvested, carried on a ship, ground in Takalar, in Cameng,
06:56or in Sulawesi Selatan, or ground in Bombana, sugar factories.
07:04It can't be.
07:05The paddy fields have to be ground there.
07:07This is different from paddy.
07:08The paddy is dried, dried, and can be brought anywhere.
07:12Therefore, this step must be controlled.
07:15We have to be serious.
07:16Two million, so many millions.
07:18Only later, wow, our president, this, this, this.
07:21We have to be rational.
07:24Are these factories really going to stand?
07:27Five units of new sugar factories, big, big there,
07:31with the investment, if I'm not mistaken, Rp10 trillion.
07:34Well, we have to be rational.
07:35Because when the factory stands,
07:37is there really a paddy field that can be used for the factory's food?
07:43Is it also sustainable?
07:45How is the sustainability level of the paddy fields there?
07:52Is it true that for a certain period of time, this factory can be BEP?
07:57Because the people who build the factory must want to make a profit there.
08:01Because of that, I think we should all think together.
08:05Let's not stop our hopes in Merauke.
08:08Let's not.
08:09We can't say no to this.
08:11But while we realize our hopes there,
08:18we have to intensify what we already have.
08:22We have paddy fields with an increase of Rp500,000.
08:26What's the drawback?
08:27So what's the drawback?
08:29For example, water.
08:30Let's fix the irrigation system on our land.
08:33The existing irrigation system.
08:37So we fix the existing irrigation system on our land.
08:40If there's water, what kind of water?
08:43This is the fertilizer.
08:45How about the fertilizer?
08:46We have to invest in this fertilizer.
08:47How about the credit?
08:48How about the farmer's ability?
08:50And lastly, how about the regulation?
08:52Earlier, it was said that we have to import more.
09:00We can't cover the possibility that we have to import more
09:04because we don't have enough production.
09:06But when do we import?
09:08How do we import?
09:10What's the market like?
09:12Until now, for example, the market.
09:14I've always opposed to the regulation
09:16on the price of sales receipts for consumers.
09:19Why?
09:20Because it makes us unhealthy.
09:22On the one hand, our consumers are really light.
09:25But as a producer, it's really good
09:29when our sales price is limited to the market.
09:31Let it be the market price.
09:33Let it be the market price.
09:34The government has to come here without an AAP regulation,
09:37but with a policy that doesn't hurt
09:40with a regulation that hurts.
09:44If we are regulated to sell,
09:45we can't sell more than Rp17,500.
09:49Interesting.
09:50This is also a newly formed government
09:52that is trying to extensify,
09:54because we know that the government
09:56is going to plant 3 million hectares of agricultural land,
09:58including the one that was mentioned earlier,
10:00in some areas.
10:02Talking about some of the challenges,
10:04there was a feasibility study,
10:06then how the supporting components
10:08must also be available,
10:10infrastructure such as sugar factories.
10:12And has there been a discussion,
10:14a joint discussion,
10:16between farmers, businessmen,
10:18or from the government to sit together,
10:20that when we are going to open
10:22a fairly large land,
10:24it means that the supporting infrastructure must also be prepared,
10:27the sugar factory,
10:29how the transportation conditions and so on.
10:31Can it be parallel,
10:33or do you see more focus on
10:35the extension of the construction of new land?
10:38As far as I know, right?
10:40Yes.
10:42That's what I said earlier.
10:44This is a hope,
10:46or I'm not saying this is a dream,
10:48but it's a good hope,
10:50we really have to prepare it.
10:52As long as we want to plant this,
10:54we can't.
10:56Different from paddy fields,
10:58or other fields,
11:00this land must move together
11:02from the beginning,
11:04the sugar factory,
11:06the infrastructure as well.
11:08I have been in Merauke for 7 days,
11:10I already know the difference.
11:12I haven't talked about the road conditions,
11:14for example.
11:16So the transportation conditions,
11:18whether it supports
11:20our transportation conditions,
11:22who wants to invest in truck transportation,
11:24for example,
11:26who is not yet familiar with our work,
11:28not yet know how to fly.
11:30The sugar can't do it all.
11:32That's why the question earlier,
11:34have the farmers talked about it?
11:36I haven't been asked to talk about it until today.
11:38Actually, the critical views
11:40as I said,
11:42it doesn't mean I hate it,
11:44but I'm sure,
11:46this is a good program,
11:48but it's not as easy as
11:50planting paddy fields.
11:52Different from paddy fields,
11:54it's different.
11:56There is a sugar factory,
11:58the infrastructure,
12:00not to mention the infrastructure,
12:02especially when we talk about
12:04biotunnel,
12:06the sugar factory.
12:08In the past,
12:10I didn't know
12:12if the photos
12:14were paddy fields.
12:16But we have to calculate
12:18the area.
12:20Mr. Sumitro,
12:22do we need to
12:24optimize intensification
12:26as you said?
12:28We'll discuss it in the next segment.
12:30Mr. Sumitro, we'll leave it to you.
12:32Make sure you're still with us.

12:52Alright Mr. Mirza,
12:53Let's continue our discussion
12:55with Pak Sumitro Suamadiku,
12:57also head of Asosiasi Pertani Tebur Rakyat Indonesia,
12:59or AAPRi.
13:00Pak Sumitro,
13:02what about intensification,
13:03but there is a challenge still UCF has,
13:05where the support of infrastructure
13:07it also has to go hand in hand with the creation of a new coal mining land, for example.
13:13How do you see the intensification itself?
13:15Can it still be optimized to take advantage of the existing coal mines at the moment?
13:23Okay, I have already told you earlier about...
13:27Yes, please, Mr. Sumitra.
13:29Okay, I have already told you earlier that if we really have 500,000,
13:35let's just divide it by, for example, our production is 2.2 million tons.
13:41If that is divided by 500,000, it means that one hectare is approximately 4.4 tons.
13:49Only 4.4 tons.
13:52The average is only that.
13:55If it's only 2.5 tons, we won't reach...
13:57Our land is no more than 5 tons per hectare.
14:01And we see that the production of coal per hectare is only below 5 tons.
14:07This is far from what we have achieved at the time of the success of Indonesian sugar,
14:12where 207 hectares of our land can produce 3 million tons.
14:18It means that one hectare can produce 15 tons.
14:20This is what drives us to propose intensification.
14:24So, for example, if we can't reach 15 tons per hectare,
14:30like the time of the success of 1929,
14:34then we can reach it again.
14:36We can increase it from 7 to 8 tons.
14:39Thankfully, we can reach 10 tons per hectare.
14:43With 10 tons per hectare, for example,
14:45we can really print by intensifying all the potential of this existing plant,
14:53then we can get 5 million tons per month.
14:57If we intensify it,
14:59if it's only 8 tons per hectare,
15:01can we get it now?
15:03In Malang, we can get up to 12 tons.
15:05There may be more than that, one hectare.
15:08Now, let's look at the current land.
15:11In the beginning, 500,000 is where it is.
15:14Let's map it.
15:16The needs of each plant are not the same.
15:19Let's push it there.
15:21If there is a shortage of water,
15:23we can improve the water system.
15:26So, for example, we need water pipes,
15:29but we don't just help,
15:31we help with pumps.
15:33If there are no pumps, then what?
15:36For example, now with diesel-powered pumps,
15:39it's difficult.
15:40We replace it with electric-powered pumps.
15:43So, the electricity goes into the field.
15:45What is the shortage of fertilizer?
15:48We need to revive the Tepu farmers' cooperatives.
15:51We make it easier to get credit.
15:53We give good regulations to the farmers.
15:57We need to take care of the imports.
16:00We still need imports,
16:02but let's not compete with each other.
16:04Let's just try to solve the shortage.
16:07Or maybe we need sugar farms.
16:10It's not the industry that holds it,
16:12but it's the government that holds it,
16:14where it is only issued when there is a price surge.
16:17God willing, when it is maintained,
16:20there will be a significant increase
16:22in our production income.
16:24If our production increases,
16:26the farmers will be happy.
16:28The farmers will not be told
16:30that we can intensify the land near them.
16:35Is there still land?
16:37Let me tell you,
16:39our land that has not been intensified,
16:41which has not yet been extended,
16:44is forested land.
16:46Some of the land belongs to forestry.
16:48Some of the land belongs to forestry.
16:50There are still tens of thousands here.
16:52If it is planted with good soil,
16:55we don't have to do it here.
16:57It will become a potential
16:59to increase our productivity.
17:01If it is planted there, it will continue to grow.
17:03If it is planted here, it will continue to grow.
17:05If both are successful,
17:07we will not jump
17:09like what President Prabowo said.
17:11We don't jump.
17:12But if we can, we will jump.
17:14Okay, that's it.
17:16So we can do optimization
17:18related to existing land,
17:20how the focus of the government,
17:22and the main action
17:24related to the problem of
17:26infrastructure support from the water side,
17:28then the fertilizer,
17:30how the financing sector is also improved
17:32so as to provide a certainty
17:34and comfort for the farmers
17:36to do production activities.
17:38There is already a Minister of Food Coordination
17:41and Minister of Food Coordination.
17:43Will it be able to orchestrate
17:45policies related to national sugar?
17:49So that the consistency
17:51to reach the target of sugar
17:53can really be achieved
17:55by the government this time, Pak Sumitro?
17:59Yes, my hope is,
18:01especially the last one
18:03that has come out of Magelang Tanah,
18:05even though I have never
18:07joined in Gembleng,
18:09like the one in Akmil,
18:11but in several outboards
18:13that I participated in there,
18:15there is one thing
18:17that should be prolonged,
18:19which is to feel one,
18:21to be one part
18:23so that there is no
18:25sectoral ego there.
18:27If there is no sectoral ego,
18:29then everything will be discussed.
18:31Because I used to say,
18:33meeting with this Minister,
18:35he always said,
18:37oh yes, if there is a problem
18:39in other ministries,
18:41it is also my problem,
18:43then accept our proposal.
18:45And with this Food Coordination,
18:47there is no more arrogance
18:49that I am the best.
18:51Because if there are other parties,
18:53other ministries are not good,
18:55then they are also included.
18:57Or other people, other ministries
18:59also feel that this is something
19:01that must be improved together.
19:03If that happens,
19:05if we talk about PUPO,
19:07it is part of the PUPO industry.
19:09If we talk about infrastructure,
19:11we talk about credit,
19:13it is the Minister of Finance,
19:15Banking,
19:17and if we talk about policies,
19:19it is in each minister.
19:21If there, the goal is the same,
19:23that we do not exploit the people.
19:25This new government
19:27must all be new.
19:29It doesn't mean that the past
19:31is less good,
19:33but it means that in every era
19:35there is something that must be improved.
19:37So the good things in defense
19:39are maintained,
19:41and the bad things are improved.
19:43We don't have to worry about the past government.
19:45This is an expensive lesson for us
19:47if there are shortcomings and we improve.
19:49If everything goes forward
19:51without having to worry about others,
19:53but I believe we have self-optimism
19:55in this new government.
19:57Okay, that's it.
19:59What is important to build is optimism
20:01for our people,
20:03how food security can be achieved,
20:05the atmosphere in front of food,
20:07especially sugar, we can also chase
20:09with everyone synergizing,
20:11Mr. Sumitro.
20:13Mr. Sumitro, thank you very much
20:15for your time, sharing,
20:17and also the updates you have given to the audience.
20:19Congratulations on your activities again.
