Since the program launch in 2020, we have conducted five batches of Bertani Untuk Negeri programs encompassing 7 different commodities in different locations. Going forward in 2023, we will continue to expand the scope and the scale of Bertani Untuk Negeri program to reach more youths and more farmers in different commodities and locations.

Our stunting prevention program, SAN, was launched earlier this year. Despite the relatively brief duration since its initiation, we have demonstrated impactful outcomes throughout the year. We remain dedicated to expanding both the scope and scale of our program to work towards the overarching goal of achieving zero stunting in Indonesia.

In the 6-month program, participants in "Bertani Untuk Negeri" engage in a learning experience that goes beyond theory. They actively contribute to the improvement of farmers' productivity, making a tangible impact. This hands-on approach allows them to acquire practical knowledge and skills while simultaneously benefiting local farmers.
We work together with businesses and the government, and each partner plays a specific role in accelerating progress.
