Productivity

• Since the Green Revolution on rice has been launched in 1960’s, rice production in Indonesia rose 40% from the early period of rice intensification program, but the rate of increase was highly volatile due to extreme climate anomalies (El Nino / La Nina) and pest incidences.

• Indonesia President’s announced to produce as much as 80 million tones of rice in 2019 and reach national rice self sufficiency in 2017

• How to achieve: Rehabilitation of irrigation infrastructure, improvement of soil and plant management, expand rice area (out of Java island), integrated farming system, and strengthen top-down coordination

50% of paddy rice is in Java

The Law of Sustainability The Law of Sustainability has been formulated (Brown, 1994; Sanchez, 2001), as follow: • Carbon emissions must not be higher than carbon fixation, • Forest damage must not faster than forest regeneration, • Extinction of biological types or species must not be more

than the evolution of type or species, • Soil erosion and degradation must not be greater than soil

formation, • Number of fish catch must not much more than fish

regeneration, • Rates of increase in demand for agricultural products do

not exceed the rate of increase in agricultural production, • Rates of increase in human birth must not be higher than

the rate of death.

Indonesian Agriculture is important……. • Food security: feeding >240 million people • Employment: 35% of total employment • Value Addition: 14% of total GDP • Trade: 21.5% of value of exports dominated by palm-oil

….. but is facing major challenges in its Transition: • Nutritional Outcomes • Farmer incomes, land tenure • Productivity - Competitiveness • Value addition • Quality and food safety • Sustainability and Environmental Footprints

Source (WB, 2015)

KEMENTERIAN PERTANIAN

Agricultural growth has featured a heavy environmental footprint • Frequent conflict between agricultural support and

environmental protection policies and programs; • Agriculture and aquaculture expansion has been a

major contributor to deforestation and biodiversity loss

• Heavy fertilizer and pesticide use is a major contributor to soil and water pollution

• Agriculture remains a major contributor to GHG emissions, and is showing an upward trend.

Growing environmental risks from and to agriculture

Population density over Flood Hazard

Cultivated land and coastal populations are among the most vulnerable to

climate-related hazards: floods, droughts, temperature change.

AGRICULTURAL ENVIRONMENT POLLUTION

Pollution sources in agricultural land: agricultural activity: excessive agrochemical use

(fertilizer, pesticide) Non agricultural activity (industrial waste, mining

activity, etc.) Polluted agricultural land reduce environmental

quality, threaten food safety, interfere human health IAERI have been mapping agrochemicals residue and

heavy metal in agricultural land since 2012

In Indonesia, based on historical natural hazards data from 1907-2006, the first climate hazards categorized as global

hazard occurred in 1953 and then the hazards occurred more frequent after 1980s.

Global warming affect global climate system and enhance the frequency and intensity of ENSO

• El Niño events have become more frequent as the global temperature anomalies associated with each El Niño continue to increase. This means that the extreme regional weather and climate anomalies associated with El Niño are being exacerbated by increasingly higher temperatures (width of lines indicate length of El-Nino, i.e. between 6-18 month)

Multidimensional Role of Agriculture on Climate Change

23 KEMENTERIAN PERTANIAN

1. Agriculture is a victim of climate change: climate change affects agricultural sustainability and productivity due to temperature rise, increased rainfall intensity, prolonged dry period and more frequent El Niño which is designated by severe drought

2. Source of greenhouse gases: land use change to agriculture may increase green house gases emission and agricultural operation may release carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O)

3. Agriculture can also mitigate the climate change (solution): significant amount of carbon could be absorb by plant through photosynthesis

Agriculture, especially paddy rice are

vulnerable to climate change impacts

Sources of GHG emissions in Indonesia in (MoE, 2010)

Agricuture contributes 4% of Indonesian GHG emissions. However, by improving land use change and management strategies, agriculture can play a significant role in reducing GHG emissions.

LAND DEGRADATION

Soil Degradation

• Soil degradation is any type of problem that removes soil in an area or makes high-quality soil become

poor. Careless agricultural practices, pollution and deforestation are the main cause of soil degradation.

Several types of soil degradation exist and are a threat to natural forests and planted crops.

Soil Erosion • Soil erosion is a natural process characterized by the

transport or displacement of particles (sediment) that are detached by rainfall, flowing water, or wind.

Soil erosion can be caused by the improper use of lands for cultivation or grazing and by deforestation.

Promoting a More Resilient Agriculture

• Multi-sectoral—agriculture, environment, public services, and trade

• Spatially differentiated—taking into account natural resources, environmental risks, and local institutional capacities

• Involving a combination of spatial (landscape), value chain, and sub-sectoral approaches

• Utilizing various instruments—regulatory, facilitative, financial, public investments and services

10 principles of environmental friendly agriculture (IAERI, 2014)

1. Increase crop productivity 2. Conservation of soil and water 3. Zero waste 4. Conservation of biological diversity 5. Low in agrochemicals residues 6. Utilize local natural resources 7. Adaptive to climate change 8. Integration between crop and

livestock 9. Low in heavy metal pollutant 10.Low greenhouse gases emission

Sustainable Agriculture

Closing Remarks • One of the challenges for Indonesia sustainable

agriculture development is the reduction of agrochemical pollutants in the environment

• Climate change becomes serious problem for sustainable agriculture developments, therefore there is a need to integrate between adaptation and mitigation. Without doing so, the impact of climate disasters in the future will be more severe, the investment required for managing climate disasters will be more expensive, and cost for recovery will also increase significantly

• Implementing the principles of environmental friendly approach (10 principles) is a must in order to achieve agriculture sustainability
