Danantara prepares a modern, technology-driven poultry industry
Jakarta (ANTARA) – The State-Owned Enterprises Regulatory Agency (BP BUMN), together with Danantara, is developing an integrated poultry industry based on modern technology, which is expected to set a new standard for the national industry.
“I want to see it later. This is integrated, and it should be the best livestock operation in Indonesia. It must be sophisticated, clean and well organised,” BP BUMN Head and Danantara COO Dony Oskaria said in an official statement confirmed to ANTARA in Jakarta on Thursday.
The poultry industry development is intended to build a chicken-farming ecosystem that is efficient, productive and highly competitive.
Dony stressed that the farms being developed must meet the highest standards of technology and operational quality. Business integration needs to be supported by modern technology, cleanliness and orderly, professional management so that it can serve as a model for the national livestock industry.
Dony also emphasised that investment decisions are not determined solely by the size of the investment, but by the potential return on investment.
Every investment must have clear business prospects and be aimed at making the company a leading player in its industry.
“Investment is not about how large or small the amount is; what matters is the return on investment. If the return on investment is good, we are willing to invest. But we must ensure that, once we enter an industry, we become a winner,” Dony said.
Dony further stressed that every regional business development must become a reference point or benchmark for industries across Indonesia. For that reason, management quality is a key priority.
Site selection and investment implementation must also be objective and professional, and free from conflicts of interest.
“Whatever we do in the regions must become a reference point, a benchmark for all industries in Indonesia. That is why we are paying very close attention to management quality in what we are doing now,” Dony said.
As part of the Integrated Chicken Downstreaming Project, a facility in Malang, East Java, is targeted for completion in May 2027.
The facility is among the projects being prepared for inauguration by the President and the relevant minister.
Through this development, BP BUMN and Danantara aim to introduce a competitive modern livestock-industry model, strengthen the national food ecosystem and create added value for Indonesia’s economy.
