The Management Agency for Plantation Funds (BPDP) is undergoing a significant transformation by integrating three strategic commodities—palm oil, cocoa, and coconut—into a unified national plantation roadmap. This expansion marks a pivotal shift in the agency's mandate, which previously focused primarily on palm oil. By broadening its scope, the government aims to synchronize the development of these key sectors, ensuring more efficient fund management and providing holistic support for smallholder farmers across Indonesia to improve productivity and product quality.
This strategic move is designed to strengthen Indonesia’s position in the global agricultural market while fostering domestic industrialization. For association members and industry stakeholders, this transformation signals a new era of integrated plantation management that prioritizes sustainability and value-added processing. By leveraging a centralized funding and development model, the BPDP seeks to create a more resilient plantation ecosystem, ensuring that these three vital commodities continue to serve as the backbone of the national economy and contribute significantly to rural prosperity.
