problems that cant be listed all Looking at this situation, there are a lot
things to do, to heal the agriculture sector in Indonesia. Government should
have given more care/treatments for agriculture workers, especially farmers.
Government should look at Vietnam and Thailand. The government on both
countries really takes serious actions in order to improve their agriculture
sector. They make policies that support the local farmers. Because of that,
both countries are now two of biggest rice exporters in the world. While
Indonesia, in the other hand, becomes the biggest importer of rice in the
world (14% of rice traded in world market), even though Indonesia is the
third biggest producer of rice in the world (54 million metric tons, 2005).
Also, the government should make policies that really support farmers and
other agriculture sector workers, such as lowering the amount of agriculture
product imports, intensifying agriculture sector improvements and
developments, subsidizing the price of fertilizers, give counseling and
training for farmers and other agriculture sector workers, give incentives to
boost productivity of farmers, etc. The government itself should interact
actively and often with farmers to stimulate the paradigm and mentality if
farmers to become superior farmers. If the government is not reliable
anymore, farmers should go on their own. They better do self-government
actions to free themselves from government dependency, whatever the
action is. For that, they need help from the experts, whether they are food
and plant experts, marketing experts, management experts, or other related
experts, that want to work voluntarily to save this country, whether they
work individually or in an organization, whether they are from Indonesia or
other countries. We cannot let this country destroyed because a handful of
people in the government.
