President Joko Widodo at Kajen Square, Pekalongan Regency, on Wednesday, December 13 2023, informed the importance of increasing food production during the current food crisis. His speech was delivered in the event “Improving Capacity of Agricultural Extension and Farmers in the Central Java Province”. President conveyed this to agricultural extension workers, “babinsa” and fertilizer retailers throughout Central Java.
On that occasion, President Joko Widodo officially allowed farmers to purchase subsidized fertilizer using their “KTP” (Resident Identification Card). The President also said that the Ministry of Agriculture will focus on ensuring there are no problems related to subsidized fertilizer.
In this activity, some of the students and alumni Agribusiness Master Program, FPP UNDIP, who were also Central Java extension workers were also present at this event.
This proves the support from Agribusiness Masters Program FPP UNDIP to increase rice and corn production.
