POULTRYINDONESIA, Jakarta<\/strong> \u2013 The government, through the Kementerian Pertanian<\/span><\/span> (Kementan), is accelerating the implementation of the integrated poultry downstreaming program as part of its strategy to develop the national poultry industry. The program aims to build a more connected system from upstream to downstream to improve production efficiency, strengthen food security, and enhance the welfare of stakeholders in the livestock sector.<\/h6>\n
Director of Livestock Product Downstreaming at Kementan, Makmun, explained that the success of this program heavily depends on strengthening management in the upstream sector. According to him, control at the early stages of production will facilitate coordination across the entire supply chain within the poultry ecosystem.<\/h6>\n
\u201cBy strengthening control at the upstream level, we can guide cultivation while also bringing together all business actors\u2014from farmers and cooperatives to production units\u2014into an integrated ecosystem,\u201d he stated on Tuesday (March 31, 2026).<\/h6>\n
In addition to strengthening the production side, accelerating the program\u2019s implementation also requires cross-sector collaboration. Special Advisor to the Minister of Agriculture for Livestock Downstreaming, Ali Agus, emphasized that effective coordination will determine the program\u2019s success in the field.<\/h6>\n
\u201cThe program must be implemented in a measurable and swift manner, while remaining on target. Its impact must be truly felt by the community. Therefore, two key drivers must work together: industry players, particularly state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in the upstream sector, and operational partners at the field level,\u201d he explained.<\/h6>\n
He added that both parties are expected to perform their respective roles in parallel and in an integrated manner to ensure effective implementation.<\/h6>\n
On the other hand, regulatory factors also remain a key concern in accelerating the program. President Director of PTPN III, Denaldy Mulino Mauna, noted that licensing processes are still one of the aspects that need improvement to support business development.<\/h6>\n
According to him, simplifying procedures\u2014especially those related to spatial planning compliance (PKKPR) and environmental permits\u2014would significantly help accelerate investment implementation in the sector.<\/h6>\n
\u201cLicensing is indeed crucial, particularly regarding PKKPR and environmental permits. If these processes can be accelerated and simplified, program implementation will become much easier,\u201d he stated.<\/h6>\n
Through the development of an integrated poultry downstreaming system, the government hopes to establish a more stable and competitive poultry industry. In addition to increasing product value, this initiative is also expected to maintain stable supply and prices in the market.<\/h6>\n
In the long term, strengthening the ecosystem from upstream to downstream is believed to positively impact farmers\u2019 welfare and drive economic growth in the livestock subsector.<\/h6>\n
