Indonesia's Deputy Agriculture Minister Sudarjono added that if 60 companies have already decided to import milk equivalent to their allocated milk production from Australia and other countries, they will be able to import 20 dumplings by the end of the year. Earlier, the Ministry of Agriculture said in November last year that it would import 100 dumplings of cows from 2025 to 2028 and increase milk production.
President Prabowo Subianto's representative presidential election pledge, the free school meal project, went into effect on the 6th.
As a presidential candidate, President Subianto promised to implement a free school meal program to promote farmers' income while the state is responsible for their health, saying 21.5% of children under the age of 5 suffer from growth disabilities.
Indonesia currently provides free meals and milk to about 3 million infants, elementary, middle and high school students, and pregnant women in 26 states, and plans to increase the number to 3 million by March and 1.47 million by the end of this year.
