POULTRYINDONESIA, Bone<\/b> \u2014 Government efforts to strengthen the national poultry sector continue to focus on reforming the business chain from upstream to downstream. One of the primary steps currently being intensified is the development of integrated chicken downstreaming in Bone Regency, South Sulawesi, which is projected to boost farmer welfare and serve as an engine for regional economic growth.<\/h6>\n
Minister of Agriculture Andi Amran Sulaiman emphasized that downstreaming is a strategic instrument for creating a fairer and more sustainable poultry business system. “Through an integrated scheme, farmers are not only encouraged to increase production but also gain certainty regarding the availability of Day-Old Chicks (DOC), feed, and product marketing,” he stated.<\/h6>\n
Minister Amran made these remarks during a working visit to Ponre District, Bone Regency, on Saturday (Jan 17, 2026), to review the readiness of the area designated as a national center for poultry development. During the visit, the Minister was accompanied by the Director General of Livestock and Animal Health (PKH) Agung Suganda, South Sulawesi Governor Andi Sudirman Sulaiman, and Bone Regent Andi Asman Sulaiman.<\/h6>\n
State Intervention and Supply Chain Stability<\/h6>\n
According to Minister Amran, the state’s presence in this program is manifested through the involvement of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) to strengthen the poultry supply chain. \u201cWe want BUMN to step in to guarantee the price, quality, and quantity of DOC, feed, and pullets at prices that ensure farmers are happy and profitable. This is also expected to create new jobs for the community,\u201d said Minister Amran.<\/h6>\n
The integrated chicken downstreaming scheme is designed to break farmers’ dependence on frequently fluctuating market mechanisms. With a “one-gate” system covering breeding, feed, cultivation, processing, and distribution, production costs can be reduced, and the bargaining power of farmers will be strengthened.<\/h6>\n
Beyond empowering farmers, strengthening the upstream poultry sector is seen as a contribution to national food stability. Minister Amran emphasized that reducing the cost of feed and DOC will directly impact the improvement of the Cost of Production (HPP) and maintain the supply of chicken in the market.<\/h6>\n

\u201cNow we can achieve self-sufficiency\u2014farmers are happy, production costs are stable, and stocks are plentiful. Our direction is clear: all agricultural commodities must be sovereign. This is the best inflation control because feed and DOC prices will drop. We are moving from the upstream, and the downstreaming will eventually reach all farmers in Indonesia. If the farmers are prosperous, the nation will be strong,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n

Regional Economic Impact<\/h6>\n
From the regional economic perspective, South Sulawesi Governor Andi Sudirman Sulaiman believes the development of the integrated poultry zone in Bone will solidify South Sulawesi\u2019s role as a national livestock hub. The program is considered in line with the rural economic development agenda based on the real sector.<\/h6>\n
\u201cSouth Sulawesi is ready to be the granary and the center of national livestock development. This downstreaming project will strengthen the livestock ecosystem, increase regional competitiveness, and provide a direct economic impact for the community,\u201d he said.<\/h6>\n
Through collaboration between the central government, regional governments, and BUMN, the integrated chicken downstreaming in Bone is expected to become a model for national poultry development\u2014one that is efficient, competitive, and supportive of farmers as the primary industry players.<\/h6>\n
