In a limited meeting at Istana Merdeka, Jakarta, on Thursday, November 20, 2025, President Prabowo Subianto heard a report from Agriculture Minister Andi Amran Sulaiman on plans to build livestock feed factories.

The construction aims to support the upstream ecosystem of people's livestock farming, particularly to maintain stable prices for feed, vaccines, and medicines for 3.7 million farmers across Indonesia.

So prices won't fluctuate much," said Amran.
Besides livestock issues, Amran reported on food production developments, especially rice. He predicted Indonesia will achieve food self-sufficiency on December 31, 2025, at 12:00. "We report on food developments specifically for rice, our food specifically rice. Insyaallah, insyaallah on December 31 at 12:00. If no obstacles, more than 30 days, 40 days ahead Indonesia achieves food self-sufficiency," he said. This achievement is faster than the initial four-year target, thanks to President Prabowo's directives. Initially targeted at four years, then after 21 days it became three years, and after 45 days one year, supported by strong regulations and financing.
