Transfer of Agricultural Technology to Increase Food Crop Production The lessons learned from the success of increasing food crop production, especially rice in Indonesia from an importing country before the Green Revolution to a rice self-sufficient country for the first time in 1984, can be achieved mainly because of technology transfer through the synergy of researchers-extension workers and farmers. Over time, the issuance of the […]
Strategies to Increase Rice Productivity Dr. Suwandi, Director General of Food Crops in his keynote speech outlined the steps being taken to increase rice production through extensification and intensification. Extensification is carried out by expanding the planting area and increasing the planting index. Intensification is carried out by increasing the yield potential of new high-yielding varieties of rice and improving crop cultivation management. Propaktani episode […]
Optimizing Dryland Potential Indonesia’s domestic food production must continue to be increased in quantity and quality to achieve food independence, in line with the increase in population which in 2024 has reached 281 million people with low consumption diversity. Propaktani episode 1085 organized by APPERTANI is one of the efforts to increase domestic food production by optimizing the potential of dry land. Dr. Suwandi, Director […]
Food Crops and Horticultural Commodities Down Streaming Propaktani episode 1055 organized by APPERTANI is a continuation of the topic of agricultural downstream episode 1006. This episode focuses more on the downstream of local food from food crops and horticultural commodities from potential industrial trees to be developed to optimize added value. Dr. Suwandi, Director General of Food Crops encourages people to consume local food, love […]
Agricultural Down Streaming The government continues to encourage downstream in all sectors, including the agricultural sector to create jobs. Dr. Suwandi, Director General of Food Crops stressed the importance of the role of innovation technology and technology transfer to shift the agricultural production curve to improve the welfare of farmers. Downstream needs to be encouraged to be carried out by Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises […]
Agricultural Infrastructure Increasing Production Early experience of the Green Revolution adoption that the development of agricultural infrastructure strongly supports the introduction of new technologies to increase crop production, especially rice. Indonesia’s current agricultural infrastructure is at the same level as the Philippines, very lagging when compared to the People’s Republic of China. In Webinar Episode 986, APPERTANI had the opportunity to organize a webinar with […]
One Day Symposium on World population reach eight billion and Indonesia population at 280 million in 2023. It requires sufficient food to meet the demand, especially with a growing middle-income society. Environmental concern continues to be a major issue in many millennial societies and lower carbon footprints have become targets for many countries. Farmers as the main drivers of food production in Indonesia are an […]
AGRICULTURAL TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION The increase in yield or productivity of plants is determined by factors that affect the most critical plant growth such as sunlight, air temperature, soil moisture, soil chemical fertility (availability of plant nutrients) which are referred to as limiting factors according to Liebig’s law. In Webinar Episode 956 Propaktani, APPERTANI had the opportunity to organize a webinar on the topic of Agricultural […]
ITS TIME GO ORGANIC The global inorganic fertilizer crisis has aroused the anxiety of countries in the world including Indonesia to meet food needs amid the negative impacts of climate change and the threat of a food crisis because of the Russian-Ukrainian war. Russia has gas and mineral resources of fertilizer materials to meet the macronutrient needs of plants. Ukraine is the world’s food granary […]
THE ROLE OF APPERTANI IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF AGRICULTURAL INNOVATIONS TO SUPPORT THE INCREASE IN FOOD CROP PRODUCTION APPERTANI Non-Profit Scientific Organization was established by the Ministry of Agriculture Professor Research Communication Forum, carrying the tag line “Agricultural Innovations and Solutions” got the opportunity to organize Webinar Episode 841 Propaktani to outline its role in the Implementation of Agricultural Innovations to Support Increasing Food Crop […]
