Jakarta (B2B) - Presiden RI Joko Widodo mengakui pemerintah membutuhkan data tunggal pertanian nasional untuk memajukan sektor pertanian. Tanpa data tunggal, seperti yang selama ini terjadi akan sulit untuk merancang jenis tanaman pangan, sebaran, waktu tanam, dan proses pascapanen.
“Apalagi pada saat terjadi perubahan musim tanam karena pengaruh perubahan iklim dunia seperti sekarang. Ketersediaan data tunggal tersebut mutlak diusahakan bersama,” kata Presiden Jokowi saat membuka Musyawarah Nasional VIII Himpunan Kerukunan Tani Indonesia (HKTI) di Jakarta pada Jumat (31/7).
Selain data tunggal, ketersediaan sarana produksi, termasuk benih dan pupuk dengan harga terjangkau petani, kata Presiden seperti dikutip Tim Komunikasi Presiden Sukardi Rinakit, Jumat (31/7) siang, juga sangat penting dalam memajukan pertanian nasional.
Presiden lantas menyinggung pidatonya dalam Pembukaan Konferensi Asia Afrika 22 April 2015, bahwa masa depan dunia ada di sekitar garis katulistiwa.
“Sinar matahari yang terus menerus akan membuat produksi pangan, termasuk energi dan air, akan tetap melimpah. Dan kita hidup di wilayah ini,” kata Presiden seperti dilansir Setkab.
