Field Assistant Pandawa Agri Indonesia
The WHY
Rice is our staple food. Its supply will affect our economy, causing inflation – the rise of all product prices. In the end, poverty will rise again. For that reason, rice supply security is very important.
As the rice producer country, Indonesia currently has an issue with it that makes rice prices in some regions rise consecutively. Climate change, war, and the supply chain issue may be the root causes. We must optimize our rice field productivity to strengthen our food security.
Regarding rice productivity in NTT, we saw that it’s still low compared to national productivity. With that huge potential, we wanted to help farmers increase their rice productivity. PAI developed PPAI technology as part of our end-to-end ecosystem to increase yield and farmer wealth while also preserving the environment.
A field assistant will accompany farmers from land preparation until harvest to observe the rice’s growth.
A field assistant will be a reliable partner for the farmers.
A field assistant will be the translator of PAI innovation and policies to the farmers.
