REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, BANJARMASIN -- The Ministry of Agriculture (Kementan) through the Banjarmasin Class I Agricultural Quarantine Center encourages porang plants in South Kalimantan (Kalsel) to meet exports along with the increasing demand for foreign markets. "China and Japan are very wide open to become porang export markets, apart from consuming food as well as industrial raw materials such as glue, flour, cosmetics and so on," said Head of Banjarmasin Class I Agricultural Quarantine Center Drh Nur Hartanto, Saturday (20/11) . He revealed that porang as a tuber-producing plant that grows in tropical forests is now being developed in almost all areas in South Kalimantan. Local governments from provinces to regencies and cities support mass planting of porang so that they don't just rely on taking plants from the forest. This is to ensure continuity so that it can be guaranteed if there is a lot of market demand within a certain period of time according to the cooperation contract with the third party.
