According to the Chairman of the Institute of Research, Analysis and Economic Development Kadin Indonesia, Didik J. Rachbani, the government needs to intervene in the rice market when rice production declined.
"The increase of Rp 3,000 to Rp 2.000- very large impact on the poor. It should be government intervention intelligently and carefully. Yesterday was not careful, the data that I have to say, a 2-fold increase. So it should not mess with rice policy," said Didik in his office, Jakarta, Friday (27/3).
Additionally Didik said other problems exist on a fragile production system, such as the destruction of irrigation systems. "It should also be improved village extension system, post-harvest, degradation of soil fertility and land conversion," said Educate.
Didik said Bulog rice stocks at the moment still lacking a million tons. Additionally Didik added, the government needs to import if necessary.
At the end of 2014 there Bulog rice stocks 1.8 million tons. While in February 2015, there were approximately 1.4 million tons. "It adds up to 2 million tonnes but now the price is high, the price of rice 70 percent more expensive than imports. In the field of supply conditions also drastically reduced, it never considered the government," said Didik .
In addition, Didik also gave the example that the stock in Cipinang Market only February 23-24 thousand tons. "The safe limit of 30-35 thousand tons with revenue 2,500-3,000 tons per day," said Didik
