Farmer is an entrepreneur and a businessman, in which the products are agricultural products from A to Z. Farmers strive for the business to pay off so they tried to care for and maintain the plants in the hope if it's time to bear fruit can be picked results. It is the hope of farmers as entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized businesses. Can you imagine when farmers are pursuing efforts to both maintain and to take care of him while living reap the rewards and try to look at outcomes physically satisfying but had broken charcoal since the price is so low. The reason is because the classic harvest thus increasing the number of products on the market. And even more unusual is the purchase of a similar product from abroad by the government. Or in other words the massive imports of similar products by the government. The reason is also classical that the product can be enjoyed by all people. With the cheap price then all people can enjoy.
An interesting phenomenon, what do you think? If we think the government should provide special institute buy / receive agricultural products at a price that is not affected by market fluctuations. And the agency sells to the public at large (domestic) at an affordable price!. Then the agency lost? yes indeed loss to defend the fate of his people, yet rather than tax dollars, and the state budget or the budget is only enjoyed by a few people close to power is not it better state funds and budgets used for measuring the breadth of broad interests of the people. Actually be circumvented by selling products that abundant (if there is excess product after a number of unmet needs in the country) abroad (exports) can export proceeds to cover losses from sales of products in the domestic return the product to the public. (Buy to the farmers at a price higher than the selling price to the general public / wider). Here the data needed accurate data terkaid by the number of basic needs with data on the number of products to be generated by the business. The key is in the data collection and the latest updates, so it's really accurate data in the field is not a game or a political ploy.
Since the New Order era to reform the order to prove that the government and the legislature proved that they were trying to recover the cost incurred for executive and legiselatif so with interest rates. Perhaps their views are utilizing the opportunities that exist, and the business minded. Capital candidacy to become a member of the executive and the legislature is not free but drain the pocket bag their income, so naturally when they are elected and became the executive and the legislature to restore the capital cost and interest rate. In accordance with the laws of economics, which is not to the capital cost is greater than revenue. Economies are expected to balance at the end of their tenure.

And to prove that in fact Indonesia is a rich country in 2012 under on the evidence alone is berap hundred and even thousands of millions of dollars used to buy products from abroad. Our hope we can post as consideration for the Executive and the Legislature is currently berusahan restore their capital. Here's the news:
The government's plan of import rice in the near future, be evidence of the impartiality of the local food commodities. It is ironic, when the surplus rice production and logistic affairs uptake Agency (Bulog) optimal.
policy shows that the government has no good faith in supporting sustainable self-sufficiency in rice by 2014.
Members of the House of Representatives Commission IV Ma'mur Hasanuddin deplored the steps taken by the Government. "At the moment the Ministry of Agriculture struggling to increase production and BULOG attempt to optimal uptake by grain farmers, the Ministry of Commerce did not even show partiality with plans to import rice," said in a release received Ma'mur Tribunnews.com, Saturday (21/7 / 2012).
Procurement of rice in 2012, until July reached 2.5 million tons and is targeted by the end of the year to reach the target of 3 million tons. Last year, rice procurement up only 1.8 million tons.
Coordinating Minister for the Economy Hatta Rajasa said (07/19/2012) The government has opened the tap on rice imports to meet national rice reserves and maintain the availability of rice in the community, the rice import quota is about 1 million tons for this year.
Up In April 2012, Indonesia has been importing rice as much as 834 thousand tons with total value of U.S. $ 456 million or Rp 4.24 trillion. In April, in which the middle harvest in Indonesia, there was rice imports by 63 thousand tons with a value of U.S. $ 35 million. Based on data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) as quoted detikFinance, Sunday (06/10/2012) largest imports come from the country of Vietnam as many as 416 thousand tons with a value of U.S. $ 233 million. For the month of April, the country of origin of rice coming into the country as many as 26 thousand tons with a value of U.S. $ 13 million. Then rice from Thailand to Indonesia until April as many as 222 thousand tons with a value of U.S. $ 128 million.

Rice from Pakistan as many, 36 thousand tons with a value of U.S. $ 14 million and as much rice from China 1880 with a value of U.S. $ 7 million.
Head of Food Security Agency of the Republic of Indonesia, Ahmad Suryana said rice production by October 2012 reached 38 million tons. Four million tons more of rice consumption in Indonesia, which only reached 34 million tons per year.
"Rice production has met our needs over the next three to five years, this year we excess of four million tonnes," he said at the launch of the book " One Day No Rice "by Depok Mayor Nur Mahmudi Ismail, Sunday, November 11, 2012.
According to Ahmad, despite the surplus, so far Indonesia still needs to import as many people are doing in the storage of rice milling. As many as 1.5 million tons of rice was stored in the mill. "In addition, the government also took deposits for program Raskin (rice for the poor) by three million tonnes," he said.
Ahmad said the imported rice is actually a last alternative in meeting the needs of rice in Indonesia. This was done when the food supply from domestic production and food reserves were not met. "Last alternative to importing," he said.
Ahmad hopes Indonesia continues to increase rice production. In addition, food security should also be made to reduce dependence on rice consumption as practiced by Depok Mayor Nur Mahmudi Ismail. "Currently, the targeted rice consumption decreased by 1.5 percent per year," he said.
way, Ahmad wish it could improve the nutritional quality of the society for the better. During this time, people consume too many carbohydrates from the rice. "In fact, too many carbs also certainly not good because their diet is not balanced," he said.
Suryana said the movement Day Without Rice or One Day, No Rice led Depok Mayor is one spirit to strengthen food security. Because not only meet the food needs of the rice. "But it can also be replaced with a local non-grain carbs," he said.
Chairman of the Parliament of the Prosperous Justice Party, Hidayat Nur Wahid also appreciate the one-day program no rice Depok Mayor Nur Mahmudi Ismail. "This is a good step in which the leaders at the local level memikiran needs at the national level," he said.
Nur Mahmudi Day Without Rice said the movement was the application of government regulations about food diversification based on local wisdom. So that the rice can be replaced with the carbo non rice yams, cassava, corn, sago, tiwul, gembili, and other materials. He also admitted having gained scorn by many in moving the program.
"I as local government officials as mandated by Law No. 7/1996, a presidential decree in 2009, followed up Mr. governor," he said.
Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Rusman Heriawan, said that Indonesia has achieved self-sufficiency in rice. Rice production is currently sufficient for the needs of national consumption. This year the national rice production is estimated at 38.564 million tons, more than the national rice consumption needs of 33.035 million tonnes.
"So, it's self-sufficiency, there is still a surplus of about 3-4 million tonnes in Bulog warehouse," he said after the inaugural professor at the University of Jember Soetardjo Building.
Although it has achieved self-sufficiency, said Rusman, the government opened the taps imports. One of them allow Bulog to import about 1.5 million tonnes of rice from Vietnam. However, the plan was merely a memorandum of cooperation and agreement and has yet to be done.
"Import additional rice for food security reserve stocks or reinforce the desired surplus target the President, which is 10 million tons per year," he said ..
On 18 September 2012 last week, Indonesia and Vietnam signed a memorandum of understanding stating that it is ready to supply Vietnam rice 1.5 million tonnes per year if Indonesia needed at any time to the national rice reserves. The agreement with Vietnam, said Rusman, applies to 2013-2017.
Earlier, Indonesia has also signed an MoU with Thailand and Cambodia with the commitment of each supply 1.1 million tons per year. He said the imported rice is not only because Indonesia failed to achieve self-sufficiency. "Do not import rice has always been associated with our alleged crop failure. Never. We need food security and reduce speculation in the market price of rice," he said.
