        "summary": "The National Food Agency (Bapanas) is prioritising the distribution of Supply and Price Stabilisation (SPHP) rice to traditional markets as a key measure to control prices and ensure public availability. Traditional markets are considered the primary barometer for rice price movements, making them the most effective point for government intervention. The agency is also urging regional governments to help expand distribution to underserved markets, with sales already reaching 393,400 tonnes of the 828,000-tonne national target for 2026.",
        "content": "<p>The National Food Agency (Bapanas) is prioritising the distribution\nof Supply and Price Stabilisation (SPHP) rice to traditional markets as\na measure to maintain price stability and strengthen rice availability\nfor the public. \u201cThe distribution of SPHP rice continues, with\ntraditional markets being prioritised as the main distribution points,\u201d\nsaid Maino Dwi Hartono, Director of Food Supply and Price Stabilisation\nat Bapanas, in Jakarta on Tuesday. He stated that traditional markets\nare the main priority for SPHP rice distribution because they serve as a\nbarometer for rice price movements in various regions. While SPHP rice\ndistribution can essentially be carried out through eight distribution\nchannels, the government has designated traditional markets as the\nprimary point to maintain price stability at the consumer level.\nAccording to him, distribution through the Cheap Food Movement (GPM) is\nstill permitted, but distribution to traditional markets is prioritised\nso that government intervention is more effective in controlling prices.\nTraditional markets are considered the reference point for monitoring\nrice price developments because price movements in these locations\nreflect the real conditions faced by the public in various regions.\n\u201cThis is the barometer for price monitoring by our colleagues at BPS\n(Statistics Indonesia). This is likely our priority,\u201d he said. Bapanas\nis also encouraging regional governments to optimise the distribution of\nSPHP rice to traditional markets that have not yet been reached or still\nhave a limited number of traders, so that price stabilisation can occur\nmore evenly. \u201cWe ask for assistance from regional governments; markets\nthat may not yet have received SPHP rice distribution or have only a few\ntraders, this can perhaps be maximised,\u201d Maino explained. Bapanas noted\nthat the realisation of SPHP rice programme sales for 2026, covering the\nperiod from March to 29 June, has reached 393,400 tonnes out of this\nyear\u2019s national target of 828,000 tonnes. This achievement is\nprogressing according to the distribution stages set by the government.\nAccording to Maino, the realisation is on track with the target. The\nnext focus is to strengthen distribution in locations that have the\ngreatest impact on rice price stability. The distribution of SPHP rice\nis carried out by Perum Bulog under assignment from Bapanas. The rice is\ndistributed in 5-kilogramme packages with medium-quality rice that has a\nbroken grain rate of around 25 percent and a moisture content of 14\npercent, in accordance with government standards. SPHP rice is sold\naccording to the highest retail price (HET), which is Rp12,500 per\nkilogramme for Zone 1 (Java, Lampung, South Sumatra, Bali, West Nusa\nTenggara, Sulawesi); Rp13,100 per kilogramme for Zone 2 (Sumatra\nexcluding Lampung and South Sumatra, East Nusa Tenggara, Kalimantan);\nand Rp13,500 per kilogramme for Zone 3 (Maluku, Papua). The distribution\nof the SPHP rice programme in 2026 is carried out throughout the year\nwithout pause, differing from the previous year\u2019s pattern which was\nperiodic, following peak harvest times to maintain prices at the farmer\nlevel.<\/p>",
