Pupuk Indonesia Appreciates Zulhas' Policy for Making Fertilizer Purchases Easier for Farmers
22 May 2025
Ngawi - PT Pupuk Indonesia always strives to provide and distribute fertilizer as easily and efficiently as possible to farmers. However, these efforts must also be balanced with government policies.
At the #DemiIndonesiaPangan event in Ngawi, PT Pupuk Indonesia President Director Rahmad Pribadi expressed his appreciation for Coordinating Minister for Food Zulkifli Hasan's (Zulhas) policy regarding the management of subsidized fertilizer.
"Pupuk Indonesia is the operator of government fertilizer policies. No matter how good the operator is, if the policies are not good, the results will not be good," Rahmad said at the #DemiIndonesiaPangan event in Ngawi, Monday (March 3, 2025).
Rahmad stated that Coordinating Minister Zulhas has improved the fertilizer management policy. He personally led the improvements.
"So there are improvements now. This is because the policy has been improved and led directly by the Coordinating Minister," Rahmad said.
Rahmad said that he once met with Coordinating Minister Zulhas to discuss fertilizer management. But before he could finish his presentation, Zulhas was already aware of the current situation regarding subsidized fertilizer.
"I remember meeting with the Coordinating Minister after Maghrib prayers on November 7th and explaining the management of subsidized fertilizer. I prepared a 20-page presentation, and after only opening two pages, he already understood that there were things that needed to be addressed," Rahmad continued.
And sure enough, Rahmad said, within a short time, Coordinating Minister Zulhas issued a policy making it easier for farmers to obtain subsidized fertilizer.
"And in less than three months, Presidential Regulation No. 6 of 2025 was issued, which essentially makes it easier for farmers to purchase fertilizer," Rahmad concluded.
Zulhas himself emphasized that one of the government's main focuses is ensuring fertilizer is easily accessible to farmers and taking firm action against speculators who hoard staple foods.
"Furthermore, the government is committed to simplifying fertilizer distribution channels to make it more accessible to farmers," Zulhas said.
Zulhas emphasized that agricultural infrastructure, especially irrigation systems, will continue to be improved to support farmer productivity. In addition, the government is also collaborating with law enforcement officials to monitor the distribution of basic commodities to prevent price speculation that harms the public.
