People's sugar cane also needs attention when the integrated sugar cane 'food estate' in Merauke worth IDR 83.27 trillion is being built.
Balancing the Development of the Merauke Sugarcane"Food Estate" with Intensification of People's Sugarcane
We just want the government not to forget about increasing the production and productivity of people's sugar cane, as well as sugar yields. Nevertheless, the expansion of sugarcane fields has not been accompanied by an increase in productivity. Over the past ten years, the national average sugarcane productivity has decreased by 2.06 percent, from 75.7 tons per hectare to 61.5 tons per hectare. The average sugar yield has only slightly increased from 7.18 percent to 7.32 percent in 2023.
The second step, according to Soemitro, is to improve sugar yields from the range of 5-8 percent to 10 percent through the revitalization of state-owned sugar mills. With the increased productivity of sugarcane and sugar yields, national sugar productivity which is currently around 4-6 tons per hectare is expected to increase to 7-8 tons per hectare.
"The policy has had a positive impact on the exchange rate of smallholder plantation farmers . In June 2024, the NTPR was 149.4, an increase of 2.68 percent monthly. The price index received by smallholder plantation farmers also increased by 2.88 percent to 181.87," said Arief.In relation to intensification and irrigation, Bapanas will coordinate with the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Public Works and Housing.
In 2025-2026, PT Global Papua Abadi will expand its sugarcane plantation and build a sugar factory. The sugar factory is targeted to operate in 2027.
