Sector Classification

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

Food and Beverage

Development need
In 2020, 28.77% agricultural producers across 3 provinces were small-scale farm owners (>0.16 hectares) and earned >USD 1044.17 PPP. Indonesia's food commodity markets is impacted by food price anomalies (IFPA) which increased from 0.21 in 2019 to 0.43 in 2020.

Various regions also fell in the moderately high and abnormally high categories of IFPA (1) due to uncertainty in climate seasons or availability of production infrastructure. This is seen in rice commodities, where price fluctuations average at ~0.6% per month. (2)

Policy
Medium-Term National Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020-2024 policy objectives towards increasing the sustainable productivity and competitiveness of human resources in the agriculture sector, market certainty, as well as increased value-added employment per agricultural worker, under its agenda of strengthening economic resilience for quality and equitable growth (2)

Gender inequalities and marginalization issues
As of 2020, 40% of smallholder farmers are women. (3) Even though women farmers participate in various agricultural roles, they still face disparity in access to financing, inputs or training, and land ownership. Land certificates are distributed disproportionately to men, and existing land inheritance norms are still biased towards men. (4)

In the palm oil supply chain, women's role is reserved for secondary, non-essential tasks, such as maintenance. This limits women's opportunities to partake in decision-making. Women also lack access to collateral for loans (lack of land-ownership), resources and inputs, creating unequal barriers in supply chain participation and innovation. (5)

Investment opportunities introduction
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. (6)

Key bottlenecks introduction
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. (7)

Underdeveloped and unequal distribution of logistics and food distribution infrastructure across regions hinder the empowerment of Indonesia's small-scale farmers.(1)

Sub Sector

Food and Agriculture

Development need
Indonesia primarily has small-scale farmers (~0.6 hectare farmlands), with limited access to modern farming technology, seed varieties and information services, and who are at a high risk of poverty. (1) Domestic price of rice in 2017 exceeded global prices, creating food accessibility and availability problems, especially for the poor and vulnerable.

Such instability is largely linked to inefficiencies and suboptimal developments of food value chains, asymmetric information on markets, and a lack of competitiveness within market structures. In turn, such structures also generate another substantial problem: food loss and waste, with the largest generation of food loss & waste (FLW) coming from the food crops sector, at 12-21 mn tons/year. (6)

Policy
Under Medium-Term Agricultural Strategies for 2020-24, GoI sets to undertake a direction of agricultural development that includes strengthening food reserve systems at both local government and community levels, and develop a national food logistics system.

Further, GoI encourages the role of private business actors alongside of State-owned Enterprises (BUMN) to improve the food supply chain for agricultural commodities. (2)

Gender inequalities and marginalization issues
In 2018, 24% of 25.4 mn farmers were women (most are farm laborers). (8) Women are often allocated to menial or secondary roles in the value chain, where more elevated roles (marketing) are dominated by men.

Women farmers also disproportionately face barriers in receiving loans for agricultural expansion, as they do not hold land ownership rights or houses for collateral. (9) Poor families and those with limited access to health-care are especially vulnerable to slow food production growth, caused by inefficiencies in the supply chain.

This is demonstrated through their high share of food expenses, i.e. 76% total household expenditure. Poor families still experience malnutrition. 48% children under five from the poorest quintile of the population were stunted compared to 29% in the richest quintile. (10)

Investment opportunities introduction
High value crops (such as fruits and vegetables) grew substantially 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. (6)

In 2020, Indonesia ranked 65/113 countries in the Global Food Security Index with high food insecurity and poor nutrition across regions. (7) However, the growth of AgriTech business presents opportunities for increased food availability in the country, where the AgriTech market raised >USD 165 mn in 2020. (10)

AgriTech plays a key role in improving sustainability and efficiency of supply chains, eliminating waste along the way. (11)

Key bottlenecks introduction
Substantial effort (money and time) is required for educating farmers or hawker partners to use the platform, which determines the success of such models in achieving economies of scale.

Market Risks & Scale Obstacles

Business - Supply Chain Constraints

Scalability of such models depends on additional investment to enter new markets as cost of setting up collection points, warehousing space and logistic services are substantial. Moreover, since the products are perishable, cost of spoilage is also borne by the operators.

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. (10)

Market - High Level of Competition

Substantial effort is spent in acquiring more farmer or hawker partners on the platform, which determines the success of such models in achieving economies of scale.

Impact Case

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

Sustainable Development Need

Reduce wastage of resources and losses incurred due to food spoilage. ~25–45% of produce spoilage is due to poor packing, inadequate cooling and long transportation time (15)

Digital agriculture solutions have the potential to: (16) > improve millions of farmers’ livelihoods by reducing production costs and increase in farm income (23); > elevate productivity in rural communities; and > significantly transform Indonesia’s agricultural sector.

Reduce inefficiencies along the supply chain (post-harvest stage, processing, packaging) that directly contribute to food waste (increased from 39% in 2000 to 55% in 2019). Optimizing funding for adequate infrastructure/facilities to manage food loss & waste (FLW) to mitigate of such spillovers. (1)

Gender & Marginalisation

Address the gap in ICT skill to empower all sections of society to ensure hawkers or farmers (platform partners) are able to reap fair benefits. Proportion of adults (aged 15-59 years) with information and communications technology (ICT) skills: Female - 60.60; Male - 67.88 (24)

Expected Development Outcome

Implementing the hierarchy of management in food loss and waste consistently at each stage of the food life cycle to prevent and minimize the amount of food loss and waste. (25)

Increase the contribution of agriculture sector to Indonesia's GDP by reducing wastage and promoting the economic growth of local communities.

Improve the agriculture value chain and enable the farmers to access the end-consumer easily.

Gender & Marginalisation

Ensure farmers obtain fair prices for their produce to increase their income. Eden Farms helped farmers increase their income by >200% after joining the platform. (26) East Bali Company helped cashew farmers of Bali raise their income from USD 0.63 to USD 0.98 per kg. (27)

Create an inclusive environment to ensure an equal opportunity (for farmers, hawkers, etc.) to derive benefits of their trade. KedaiSayur has enabled their hawker-partners to increase their purchase value by ~2x in the first 6 months of joining. (22)

Ensure women empowerment (~40% smallholder farmers are women) through their inclusion in business models designed for farmers. SayurBox promotes the involvement in farmer communities to empower farmer partners, farmer communities and local producers to get better access to market. (28)

Public sector

Such business models also contribute to the government's priorities in increasing farmer's income by 5% p.a. and value-added, as established under the RPJMN 2020-24. (2)

Outcome Risks

Efficiency of operations would be impacted in case of a conflict or fraudulent activities by existing players (middlemen) in the market.

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

Gender inequality and/or marginalization risk: In the absence of sufficient regulations / controls, farmers maybe exposed to exploitation. Inability of business model to include women as part of the product/service design may exclude a significant proportion of smallholder farmers.

Impact Risks

Struggling farmers are forced to borrow money from local middlemen to expand their business and increase yields, which forces them to sell their harvest at very low prices, resulting in losses. (15)

If the benefits of the model do not expand across Indonesia, it will deepen regional and income disparities in the country.

Gender inequality and/or marginalization risk: Absence of gender centric project design may marginalize women further.
