The potential of sago as food security could be threatened due to low productivity. It is hoped that the use of superior varieties with precision cultivation can increase sago productivity in a number of areas.
The following article was translated using both Microsoft Azure Open AI and Google Translation AI. The original article can be found inSago processing took place in Animha District, Merauke Regency, Papua on Friday . It took a total of 2.5 to 3 hours from felling the tree to processing one meter of sago trunk into wet flour.
Indonesia is also known as a region that has a diversity of types of sago. It is noted that there are more than 65 types of sago found in Papua, 14 types in West Papua, 5 types in Maluku, 2 types in North Sulawesi, 3 types in Southeast Sulawesi, 2 types in South Sulawesi, and 3 types in Riau. "The potential of sagu is vast, but its availability in the market is still very limited. There are particular challenges as to why this crop is not being developed in Papua or Maluku. The most important thing is that we need to focus on the sagu industry so that it can be utilized to maintain food security," he said in a virtual discussion on Horties Talk, at the end of August.
"The productivity of sago, whether it has thorns or not, can reach up to 1 ton of starch per tree, but some only produce 20 kilograms per tree. Therefore, breeding activities including selection and other activities to increase sago production are still highly viable," said Novarianto.
The four superior varieties have different morphology and productivity. However, generally, the morphology and productivity of the latest variety of sago from Tana Luwu is superior compared to the other three varieties.Comparison of Morphology and Productivity of Four Excellent Varieties of Sago: Molat, Selat Panjang Meranti, Bestari, and Tana Luwu In the field of agriculture, sago is one of the most economically important crops in Indonesia.
