Tridge summary

My Agriculture—Director of Feed of the Directorate General of Livestock and Animal Health (PKH), Agus Sunanto, explained that there are various global issues that need attention, one of which is the rising price of feed ingredients. He conveyed the statement at the webinar "Development of Local Feed Ingredients (Koro Sword and Magot Nuts) as Substitutes for Imported Feed Ingredients" on Thursday (10/2). The increase in the price of feed ingredients is allegedly due to the reduced international transportation fleet, the increase in container costs, the tendency of each country to secure food and feed, as well as the presence of component materials that still depend on imported supplies. Therefore, Agus said that he must immediately make efforts to find imported substitute feed ingredients at economical prices. “Feed is the main element in determining the price of animal feed products. Where the portion of feed costs to total production costs is between 47.56 percent to 70.97 percent."
