Jakarta (B2B) - Kementerian Pertanian memastikan selama 2013 bahwa 90% kebutuhan komoditas hortikultura nasional dipasok dari produksi domestik dan pasokan impor hanya 10% dari kebutuhan hortikultura nasional.
"Secara umum, Indonesia sudah mencapai swasembada untuk komoditas hortikultura seperti sayur-sayuran, buah maupun bunga," kata Direktur Jenderal Hortikultura, Hasanuddin Ibrahim kepada pers di Jakarta, Selasa.
Kendati begitu, dia tidak menampik tingginya kebutuhan impor terhadap produk hortikultura seperti buah anggur, pir, apel, wortel, bawang putih dan kentang olahan karena terbatasnya produksi di dalam negeri lantaran kekhususan produk hortikultura tersebut.
"Sedangkan untuk buah-buahan dan sayuran tropis seperti pisang, nenas, manggis, salak, mangga, dan durian semuanya dipenuhi dari dalam negeri bahkan Indonesia mampu mengekspor," katanya lagi.
