Building a young generation ready to create positive change in the world of agribusiness has become a key focus of PT Charoen Pokphand Indonesia Tbk (CPI). Through the Charoen Pokphand Best Student Appreciation (CPBSA) program, now entering its 6th batch, CPI provides not only financial support but also academic, practical, and even international experience. This year, CPBSA offers a more comprehensive series of activities under the theme \u201cShaping Future Young Leaders Ready to Bring Positive Change to the World of Agribusiness.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

CPBSA Batch 6 began in May\u2013June 2025 with online registration. The enthusiasm from students across various universities in Indonesia was immediately apparent. They then went through a rigorous selection process, including psychological tests, interviews, and a Leadership Group Discussion (LGD) held on 18\u201326 June 2025. Only the best candidates successfully advanced.<\/p>\n

The selected participants were announced at the end of June 2025. The CPBSA selection assessed not only academic ability but also leadership, communication skills, and a strong passion for learning. From this process, 21 students from 15 universities across Indonesia were chosen.<\/p>\n

The participants attended a Workshop and Briefing session in Jakarta on 14 July 2025. This event marked the initial phase of character building and knowledge development before they were deployed directly into the field. From 15 July to 2 September 2025, the selected students joined various business units of Charoen Pokphand Indonesia across different regions. Over nearly two months, they learned firsthand about modern poultry industry management, from breeding and feed production to animal health and distribution chains.<\/p>\n
