Jakarta (B2B) - Menteri Pertanian Suswono menyatakan Kementerian Pertanian telah menyusun Strategi Induk Pembangunan Pertanian untuk rencana pembangunan jangka panjang. Strategi ini menargetkan peningkatan kesejahteraan para petani Indonesia.
"100 tahun Indonesia merdeka, semua petani Indonesia harus sejahtera," kata Suswono saat ditemui di Kementerian Pertanian di Jakarta, Sabtu (17/8).
Menurut dia, nantinya aturan ini dapat menjadi landasan bagi pembangunan pertanian ke depan sampai tahun 2045.
Suswono mengharapkan, strategi ini juga dapat menjadi acuan bagi pembangunan pertanian jangka menengah, bukan hanya bagi Kementan, tapi juga bagi pemerintah secara keseluruhan.
"Karena pembangunan pertanian melibatkan lintas sektor," kata dia.
Suswono mengakui strategi ini telah melibatkan para ahli dari lintas sektor agar pembahasannya komprehensif.
Adapun pembangunan pertanian, kata Suswono, nantinya mau tak mau akan mengarah pada bio industri. "Tujuan ke depan sudah pasti bio industri."
Jakarta (B2B) - Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) Suswono said that the ministry had formulated a long term Agriculture Development Master Plan, aimed to provide welfare for Indonesian farmers.
"By the time Indonesia celebrates its 100th independence day, all of the famers must live in prosperity," said Suswono at his office, Saturday, August 17, 2013.
He said that the master plan would serve as a foundation for the agriculture development until the year 2045.
Suswono also hoped that the master plan could become a reference for middle-term agriculture development, not only for the Agriculture Ministry but also for the government as a whole.
"It is because agriculture development involves various sectors," he said.
Therefore, he admitted that in formulating the master plan, experts from various sectors were involved, in order to generate comprehensive deliberations.
As for the agriculture development, Suswono said that it would inevitably be oriented towards bio-industries.
"The future goal is definitely bio-industries."
