DKI Provincial Government to Build a 1,000-Head Cattle Shed in Ciangir

Jakarta – The Jakarta Provincial Government (Pemprov DKI) through Dharma Jaya is planning to build a new cattle shed in Ciangir, Tangerang Regency, Banten. The shed is targeted to accommodate up to 1,000 head of cattle. Raditya Endra Budiman, Chief Executive of Dharma Jaya, said the construction is being pursued because of the limited land currently owned by the company.

‘There is indeed a site in Ciangir. The land there totals about 100 hectares,’ Raditya said in an official statement on Friday, 6 March 2026.

However, the quota allocated by the Ministry of Agriculture is only 7,500 head. ‘From 7,500, given Dharma Jaya’s current condition, we can only bring in around 3,119 head. Not because we’re afraid of poor demand, but due to space constraints,’ he added.

Raditya stated that Dharma Jaya actually has land of around 12 hectares in Serang, Banten. However, the land use designation changed, so it can no longer be used for a cattle yard. ‘The land’s designation has changed; what was previously permissible for a cattle yard is now only allowed for agro-tourism. So the existing cattle yard cannot be expanded or added,’ he said.

As a solution, Dharma Jaya will utilise land owned by the DKI Provincial Government in Ciangir, Banten. The total area of the site is about 100 hectares, around 20 hectares of which has already been used for a correctional facility.

‘The land use has changed; what was previously permissible for a cattle yard is now only allowed for agro-tourism. So the existing cattle yard cannot be expanded or added,’ he added.
