The Agricultural Potential Of Indonesia

The Agricultural Potential Of Indonesia

Indonesia said the country's Jambrut at the equator, “gemah Ripah Lohjinawi” said the Javanese. I think that is the case, if we look at the 2010 – 2014 renstra agricultural potential, particularly in the areas of Indonesia, an agricultural farming potential of What Indonesia?
Proverbial stick of bamboo so plants, people say our soil ground of heaven,
This review I for some upload phase, given the potential for such a large number of agricultural Indonesia.


1. The agricultural potential of Indonesia's first : biodiversity and Agroekosistem.

Indonesia has the potential of natural resources, including the germplasm, which overflows (mega biodiversity). Bio-diversity of terrestrial Indonesia is the largest number two in the world after Brazil, whereas when including marine biodiversity, Indonesia is the largest number one in the world. This can be seen with the various types of agricultural commodities in food crops, horticulture, orchards and farms which have long sought as a source of food and income for the community. A supported plurality of biodiversity of today with the distribution of geographical conditions of the low and high; abundance of sunshine and rainfall intesitas almost evenly throughout the year in most regions; as well as a plurality of types of soils allows today's preserved various types of plants and animals native to the tropics, as well as the commodity introduction of tropical sub areas evenly throughout the year in Indonesia.
Variety and magnitude of the number of germplasm of plants and animals, both native to the tropics and the introduction of the commodities that have to adapt to the tropical climate, on the other side is the source of genetic material that can be engineered to produce superior crop varieties and klone and the cattle.
The agricultural potential of Indonesia, much utilized by other countries such as Netherlands, France, America etc in getting germplasm among other seed-seed farm, in the implementation of the checklist has been developed to form agricultural seeds industry. Most of the productnya was brought to the land of the Westerner. This is based on information from the workforce (native Indonesians)

2. The agricultural potential of Indonesia in the second agricultural : lands Indonesia has the potential availability of land big enough and not yet utilized optimally. Data from academic studies carried out by the Directorate General of Land and Water Management, Ministry of agriculture in 2006 showed that the total land area of Indonesia's 202 million ha, is divided into 123 million ha (64.6 percent) is the cultivation and the remaining 67 million ha (35.4 percent) is a protected area. Of the total cultivated area, potentially to an agricultural area 101 million ha, including wetlands covering an area of 25.6 million ha, dry land crop season 25.3 million ha and dry land crops yearly 50.9 million ha. Until recently, the area of agriculture, potentially to an already cultivated into agricultural area by 47 million ha, so that the remaining 54 million ha of potentially agricultural area for the expansion.

3. The agricultural potential of Indonesia a third much more, if there's time to look at a very famous natural beauty of this.
Number of extents and the distribution of forests, rivers, swamps and lakes as well as rainfall is quite high and evenly throughout the year was a natural potential to meet the needs of water for agriculture
If managed properly. Reservoirs, dams, water and soil as well as embung surface water as well as other very potential for supporting the development of agricultural enterprises.
