Situate the investment opportunity within sustainability focused sector, subsector and industry classifications.

Sector

Food and Beverage

Development need

In 2020, Indonesia ranked 65/113 in Global Food Security Index indicating high food insecurity and poor nutrition (1) which results in malnutrition, stunting and wasting.(2) Agriculture provides high employment, but low average income for farmers. Extreme weather negatively impacts productivity, increasing import dependence (1.8 mn ton rice was imported in 2018). (3)

Policy

Medium-Term National Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020-2024 states the policy directions for managing economic resources (including increasing the availability, access and quality of food consumption through development of biofortified rice seeds) and to address the issue of undernourishment, food insecurity experience scale and % of paddy fields defined as sustainable. (4)

Gender inequalities and marginalization issues

Households in eastern regions experience higher food insecurity than those in western regions. In 2017, households in NTT were at the most risk (31.8%) while those in Bangka Belitung possessed the lowest risk (3.8%). (1)

Indonesian youth experiences low micronutrient nutrition- 12% male and 23% female adolescents experience anemia, which mostly caused by iron-deficiency. (5) ~40% smallholder farmers in Indonesia are women. Their role often goes unnoticed, particularly by private sector companies who fail to recognize their decision-making power and potential impact on the bottom line. (6)

Investment opportunities

Population, income and change in food preferences impact food demand. Demand grew by 105% for wheat and 61% for vegetables (2000-2015). With an expected growth in population of 10%, GDP and per capita GDP at 140% and 79%, respectively (Between 2015 to 2030), food demand is expected to show a sharp growth over the next 30 years. (3)

Key bottlenecks

Inadequate logistics (distribution channels) and supply-chain management, low productivity of key crops, poor infrastructure and national food reserves, and climate change, adversely impact the achievement of food security and nutrition targets. (1)

Sub Sector

Food and Agriculture

Development need

Food insecurity, nutritional adequacy and income disparities remain prevalent issues in Indonesia, where children from poorer families are ~2x as likely to suffer from stunting compared to their counterparts. (1) Majority farmers own scarce lands (0.6 hectares), are at a high risk of poverty and lack access to modern farming technology. (7)

Policy priority

National Medium-Term Development Planning 2020-24 states policy directions to improve food security and consumption quality by maintaining sustainable agricultural systems adaptive to climate change, promoting farmer regeneration, as well as increasing sustainable agriproduction techniques, where private sectors are invited to participate. (4)

Gender inequalities and marginalization issues

In 2018, 24% of 25.4 mn farmers were women (most are farm laborers). (8) Low-income families still experience malnutrition. 48% children under five from the poorest quintile of the population were stunted compared to 29% of those from the richest quintile. (1)

Women farmers, who comprise 49% of agricultural households (2018), have limited access to adequate agricultural training and information, as well as participation in decision-making or implementation of food policies. Such access is largely determined by land ownership, which is usually dominated by men of the household. (9)

Marginal smallholder farmers are also vulnerable to food insecurities during extreme weathers (such as dry seasons), where their income suffers due to low labor demand and production. (10)

Investment opportunities

High value crops (such as fruits and vegetables) grew substantiallly from 2000 to 2015 at 117.9% and 61.3%, and annual growth rates of 4.32% and 3.75%, respectively. With expected growth in population (10%) and per capita GDP (79%), demand for said commodities is likely to rise over the next 30 years. (3)

Key bottlenecks

Low adoption of agricultural technology and innovation due to low R&D expenditure, coupled with high infrastructure or technological costs, is a key barrier towards achieving increased productivity and competitiveness in the sector. (4)

Other services may include advisory on specialized value chains (high value produce like Exotic Fruits and Vegetables, Tea and Coffee), financial assistance (in the form of working capital loans and insurance) to eliminate losses due to delays in production. Examples of some companies active in this space are:

Tunas Farm, founded in 2020, operates as an indoor vertical farming facility to produce veggies in Tangerang and sells its products online. It raised USD 1 mn from Gayo Capital in a seed funding round.

PT East West Seed Indonesia, founded in 1990, (joint venture between East West Seed and Enza Zaden) produces and markets vegetable seeds (under the brand CAP PANAH MERAH) for smallholder farmers and offers extension/training services to increase their yields/income. With Business Call to Action (2016), it integrates 17,775 seed growers into its value chain and impart knowledge to 125,000 farmers.

PT. Crowde Membangun Bangsa, founded in 2015, operates a peer to peer (P2P) lending platform for farmers. It educates farmers on technology and financial management, and provides equipment like tools, seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides. In 2021, it raised USD 9 mn (Series B) from Monk's Hill Ventures, Mandiri Capital and PT. Great Giant Pineapple Co, at a post-money valuation of USD 32 mn.

Habibi Garden, founded in 2018, is an AgriTech company that focuses on leveraging Internet-of-things (IoT) on farming operations. Habibi Garden creates precision agriculture devices for farmers that process environmental and local data and optimize fertilizer and water schedules to optimize crop yields. In 2018, it raised an undisclosed amount in seed funding from Brinc. (12)

Market Risks & Scale Obstacles

Business - Supply Chain Constraints

AgriTech enterprises are facing challenges scaling up because of: (15) - data fragmentation in accessing high-quality real-time analytics; - harvesting of crops takes time; thus, working capital is required sporadically (21); and - market access is an issue due to fragmented island landscape

Business - Supply Chain Constraints

Infrastructure, crop cultivation, and logistics and distribution are challenges for the agriculture sector. Different regions produce different crops depending on local conditions, and these need to be distributed domestically, which is a challenge given that Indonesia is a large archipelago. (21)

Business - Supply Chain Constraints

Farmers are mostly smallholders. This poses both a challenge in terms of yield consistency as it is difficult to achieve economies of scale from fragmented land-holdings (21)

Read about impact metrics and social and environmental risks of the investment opportunity.

Sustainable Development Need

Majority of farmers are not educated beyond primary school, are >45 years old, and lack technical /digital knowledge. They do not have the technical knowledge to keep up with agricultural mechanization and trends, resulting in low productivity. (15)

~2.29 mn people work in the horticulture sector, and most are smallholder farmers who lack knowledge of adequacy/type of seeds or knowledge about how / when to plant. Thus, without adequate advisory, smallholder farmers cannot participate and break the cycle of poverty. (23)

Digital agriculture solutions have the potential to: (15) > improve millions of farmers’ livelihoods by reducing production cost and increase in farm income (23); > improve economic growth in rural communities; and > significantly transform Indonesia’s agricultural sector.

Gender & Marginalisation

9/10 farmers are impoverished smallholder farmers and fisherfolk who live in rural areas and lack access to education, financing and basic infrastructure (potable water, electricity and sanitation). (14) Such conditions impact the productivity of these farmers and the quality of their produce.

Applying new technologies to farming can help Indonesia achieve its goal of growing non-oil and gas exports (including food) by up to 12.23% by 2024 and keep its trade balance in check. (14)

Promote women empowerment by inclusion of women in decision making roles. In palm oil supply chain, women's roles are reserved for secondary, non-essential tasks such as maintenance. Women lack access to collateral for loans, resources and inputs. (24)


Expected Development Outcome

As per expert consultations, promotion of sustainable farming practices can help in increasing productivity (quality, quantity), creating jobs (agents, takers, farmers, workers), increasing farmers' income (financial support) and promoting financial education of farmers.

Ensure efficient and equitable farming practices to pave the way for sustainable agriculture, benefitting the farmers, resources and communities which would help in creating a strong agriculture sector and support Indonesia’s food security and economic growth. (14)

Create an ecosystem which would be beneficial for all, including farmers, support-agents and final consumers. In 2019, Crowde reported an average income increase of 5% among its farmers for one cultivation cycle, after having received wider access to capital through its lending platform. (25)

Gender & Marginalisation

Promote women empowerment by educating rural women that participate in agriculture through incubation and training programs. Example: Proportion of women who partnered with Crowde increased from 7% in 2019-2020 to 20% in 2020 women through socialization programs adopted by the company.

Technology can help smallholder farmers and fisherfolk produce efficiently and earn enough to breakout of poverty, thereby encouraging more people to farming and fishing, increasing Indonesia’s agricultural and seafood output for domestic consumption and export. (14)

Uplift the status of women (24% of 25.4 mn farmers in 2018). (8) Women in developing countries are engaged in labor-intensive activities, work smaller lands areas, produce less profitable crops, and suffer from persistent gender gap in earnings due to such differences. (26)

Directly impacted stakeholders

People

Farmers benefit from increased income generated from adoption of modern agri-tech methods.

Gender inequality and/or marginalization

Women farmers benefit with improved livelihoods from equal opportunities and recognition of their decision making ability. Rural communities with high dependence on agriculture benefit overall with boost in local economy.

Planet

Climate-smart agriculture technology encourage less resource-intensive practices. Automated-based production methods (such as, to control greenhouses automatically and remotely) help decrease carbon footprint/emissions. Soil sensor technology helps in reducing soil degradation. (28)

Public sector

Government benefits from increased agricultural productivity, leading to an expected increase in GDP growth in agriculture, from 3.5% in 2019 baseline, to 4.1% in 2024. Benefits of improved livelihoods and income for smallholder farmers, contribute to poverty alleviation. (4)


Indirectly impacted stakeholders

People

Population benefits from improved agriculture productivity which ensures quality produce for achieving food security and nutritional targets of Indonesia.

Gender inequality and/or marginalization

Population benefits from equitable distribution of resources through upliftment of local communities / industries.

Planet

Reduced carbon footprint and/or environmental degradation from efficient agriculture technologies, in turn contribute to overall biodiversity and natural resources conservation.

Corporates

Wholesalers and retailers benefit from procuring better quality produce at fair prices

Public sector

With an allocated State Budget (APBN) of USD 14 bn towards farming cooperatives and commodities under the RPJMN 2020-24, the scaling of private business models will lower the government's financial burden on investing in farmer-support initiatives.(4)


Outcome Risks

Efficiency of operations would be impacted in case fraudulent activities by existing players (middlemen and other actors) in the value chain who limit limit passing on of benefits to the farmers.

Farmers in some regions may concentrate their production on the same product, resulting in excess supply of one crop and scarcity of others.

Risks associated with lending for agriculture is high due to the financial vulnerability of borrowers. The lenders (in P2P or crowdfunding) should be comfortable with their risk appetite.

In the P2P lending market, scams and other unscrupulous practices remain a key concern. Thus, stronger regulations and enforcement is required. (14)

Gender inequality and/or marginalization risk: Absence of sufficient regulations may lead to exploitation of farmers. Absence of gender centric project design may marginalize women further.


Impact Risks

Unavailability of formal modes of lending for farmers (due to higher level of scrutiny and documents required) can limit their working capital flow required for timely cultivation of crops.

93% farmers are impoverished smallholders, and may not be able to afford the service offered by digital platforms without low-interest based financial assistance with suitable tenures. (15)

Gender inequality and/or marginalization risk: Lack of initiative to uplift the agriculture sector will deepen the regional and income disparities in the country.
