00:00Wiki, if we want to farm, why don't we grow it according to our expectations?
00:05Maybe we don't farm smartly.
00:07That's right.
00:08We need various methods so that the management of farming is more practical,
00:15simpler, more effective, efficient, and also more productive.
00:20In this episode, we will talk about farming with a smart farming platform.
00:24It has been connected since the video conference with Ari Gunawan,
00:27who is the CEO of Kerabat Tani Indonesia.
00:29How are you, Ari?
00:31Hello, I'm good.
00:32Good.
00:33Thank you.
00:34Thank you for agreeing.
00:36Okay, how do you feel about the problems related to the volatility of food prices in Indonesia?
00:43It must be related to agriculture.
00:46We often see a lot of people throwing away their crops,
00:49such as tomatoes and papayas.
00:53How do you feel about that?
00:54Because the price is broken.
00:55How do you feel about that?
00:56Good.
00:57It's related to the quality of food.
00:59So, the volatility is definitely affected by the supply and demand.
01:05This supply and demand is also affected by the productivity of agriculture in Indonesia.
01:11Now, agriculture still depends on the weather.
01:16So, that's what is very unfortunate and makes our food prices drop.
01:24For example, the price of chilies in Indonesia is around IDR 70,000 to IDR 80,000 per kilo.
01:31In the market, it's IDR 100,000.
01:33Three or four months ago, the price was IDR 15,000 for chilies.
01:40So, the quality of our food depends on the weather.
01:44Especially now, in August, it's still raining in Jawa Timur.
01:51There are still a lot of farmers out there who can't harvest.
01:55So, that's the reason why the price of our food is very high.
02:00So, based on your findings, the volatility is caused by the season
02:05and also affected by the productivity of the agriculture.
02:10So, the price is volatile.
02:13Looking at the existing problems, what solutions are offered by Kerabat Tani?
02:18At Kerabat Tani, we offer an ecosystem that allows farmers to harvest without a problem.
02:24So, we don't depend on the weather.
02:28So, farmers can do whatever they want in Indonesia,
02:32especially in tropical countries.
02:34They can harvest in the rain, sun, etc.
02:37So, in the ecosystem, we collaborate.
02:40There's a greenhouse in it, there's automation in it,
02:44a system that can help farmers sell their produce to premium markets
02:48that can support the high cost of production
02:52in the process of farming without the season.
02:56So, we can get a price that matches the high cost of production
03:01in a modern farming ecosystem.
03:05Okay. Can you explain further?
03:10How does the system offered by Kerabat Tani work?
03:16Okay. So, in this Kerabat Tani system,
03:18we usually plant our produce in a greenhouse
03:21that has a specific specification.
03:23We usually use UV plastic on top of it,
03:26and also insulators on the sides.
03:28And in the greenhouse,
03:30we provide nutrients, water, and so on,
03:35based on the condition of the plant,
03:38not based on the time of planting.
03:40The insulators and so on are based on the algorithm.
03:43But we provide it directly based on the condition of the plant
03:46automatically.
03:47So, what works there is a system.
03:49So, the plant is protected from bad weather,
03:53and also from pests,
03:56and also the productivity increases,
03:58and we manage to cut a fairly large cost of production,
04:02including labor.
04:04What agricultural commodities are suitable
04:06to apply the system offered by Kerabat Tani?
04:09Is it limited to vegetables and chili?
04:13Or maybe there are other fruit commodities,
04:16such as durian?
04:18I imagine if you can eat durian or mango,
04:21you can eat it anytime without having to wait for the season.
04:24What are the commodities?
04:26Okay. In terms of commodities,
04:28we now have more than 70 commodities that we manage.
04:31So, there are many.
04:33In terms of fruits, we produce the most,
04:35which are premium melons.
04:36We have 10 types of premium melons,
04:3810 to 20 different types,
04:40and we send them to areas all over Java,
04:43starting from Jabodetabek, Jawa Timur, Jawa Barat,
04:45we have all of them.
04:46The productivity is also able to increase,
04:49and without the season,
04:50so we don't care about the season there.
04:52In addition, we have now completed research
04:54on the production of paddy in polybag.
04:58So, we polybag paddy in the greenhouse.
05:01After this, we will produce paddy in the greenhouse.
05:04Well, that was also mentioned earlier,
05:07the commodities,
05:08the types of commodities,
05:09and the distribution to wherever.
05:11Well, the next question,
05:12how much is the service price?
05:14But don't hesitate.
05:15Stay with us.
05:16Don't hesitate.
05:17We will be back soon.
05:18Thank you for staying with us,
05:20and we are still talking with Mas Ari from Kerabat Tani.
05:23If we talk about the efforts that can be made,
05:26that this is an effort to increase productivity
05:31and also the quality,
05:32but the most important thing
05:33when talking about the food commodity
05:34is the accessibility.
05:36The community can access it
05:37in terms of distance or price.
05:39That becomes a narrative
05:41that seems to be a must
05:43when talking about food.
05:45Well, in terms of price,
05:47if it's quality,
05:49but in terms of price,
05:51how is it?
05:52Or in terms of segment,
05:54the market that you target
05:57is the premium market?
05:59Okay.
06:00For the price of the commodity itself,
06:02we are still playing in the premium market.
06:05We play in the premium market,
06:06but sometimes we also enter
06:08the traditional market,
06:10which is when we release it,
06:12we are aiming for high prices.
06:14So when the farmers outside
06:16can't harvest,
06:17we can harvest at the best price.
06:19So we also sometimes enter
06:21the traditional market,
06:22but with a market condition,
06:24with a high price.
06:27Is there a challenge
06:29for a business like that?
06:32There must be a trick.
06:34What is it like?
06:36At first,
06:38we change the behavior of the farmers.
06:40It's very difficult.
06:41Because we are a full automation here,
06:43where the farmers are usually still
06:45girls on the field and so on.
06:47We sometimes have to control it
06:49very advantageously for the farmers
06:51to be able to control
06:53our food supply.
06:56So if we talk about the investment,
07:00if the farmers want to use
07:02the services offered by Kerabatan,
07:04what is the range fee?
07:08Okay, our range is around
07:10Rp130,000 per meter per cd.
07:14For the farmers,
07:17they can get various of our technologies,
07:20but outside of the planting price.
07:22So it's already included
07:24in the automation,
07:26including the automatic irrigation,
07:28greenhouse, etc.
07:29That's the most basic.
07:30We use an economic circular,
07:32with the best bamboos in East Java.
07:34But we also have services
07:36that use technology,
07:38maybe the construction
07:40uses galvanized or iron.
07:42That's higher,
07:44around Rp400,000-Rp50,000 per meter per cd.
07:48How long has Kerabatan
07:50been running?
07:53How many farmers
07:55have joined?
07:59We have been running
08:01for the last two years,
08:03and we have 15 locations,
08:05almost 1 hectare area.
08:07So in premium farming,
08:09we don't need a lot of resources,
08:11but our quantity can also compete.
08:13We have around
08:15100 farmers
08:17involved in the management
08:19of planting media, etc.
08:22But for daily farmers,
08:24we don't have many involved.
08:26We are concerned in East Java,
08:28and in the meantime,
08:30we have in East Java and West Java.
08:32And you were more concerned
08:34about premium farming, right?
08:36Yes, in premium farming.
08:38Has the target for profitability
08:40been achieved so far,
08:42or is there a target for profitability?
08:44Okay, for profitability,
08:46we are now positive,
08:48and our clients
08:51are in the government,
08:53such as Bank Indonesia Pusat.
08:55We are in Bank Indonesia Pusat,
08:57and if you check
08:59in the social program of Bank Indonesia,
09:01we handle almost 2,000 meters
09:03for high-level specifications
09:05of automated farming.
09:07What is the main hope
09:09of Kerabatani
09:11right now?
09:13Okay, the main hope is
09:15that we can scale up further
09:17because we target this year
09:19100 greenhouses in East Java
09:21for us to be able to offer
09:23our demand market
09:25which reaches 5,000 metric tons
09:27per year.
09:29Now we can still support
09:31only 2% of it,
09:33around 100-200 metric tons per year.
09:35So in the future,
09:37there is still a lot of potential
09:39to expand further like that.
09:41Mas Ali, thank you for joining us
09:43in Keretap Sukses Untuk Anda.
09:45I always see you.
09:48Okay, we will see the movement
09:50of IHSG until 9.28 pm

10:10among them are still SMGR,
10:12MNCN, Java,
10:14GOTU, SMIL, PTBA,
10:17RTA, PSAB.
10:19With the sector that leads the strengthening
10:21is health at the level of property
10:23and the sector that leads the weakening
10:25is thin,
10:27we see, Mr. Mirsa,
10:29there seems to be an industry there
10:31and there is also infrastructure.
10:33That's it, Mr. Mirsa, a brief review
