PT Pupuk Kalimantan Timur (Pupuk Kaltim/PKT) recorded solid production performance throughout the first quarter of 2026, with total output reaching 2.14 million tonnes. This production comes from three main products: urea, NPK, and ammonia, which support the company’s role in maintaining the national fertiliser supply.

Company Secretary of PT Pupuk Kaltim, Anggono Wijaya, stated that this achievement reflects the company’s commitment as part of the Pupuk Indonesia holding in meeting the national fertiliser needs.

“The performance of Pupuk Kaltim, as part of Pupuk Indonesia, carries a significant responsibility in fulfilling the national fertiliser supply. From the first quarter 2026 performance achievement, Pupuk Kaltim managed to record solid production performance. With total production of around 2.14 million tonnes. We have three main products: urea, NPK, and ammonia,” said Anggono during the Media Silaturahmi in Jakarta on Wednesday (29/4/2026).

Anggono detailed that urea is the largest contributor to Pupuk Kaltim’s production, reaching 1,164,435 tonnes (33.65%), followed by ammonia at 874,644 tonnes (31.91%) and NPK at 104,318 tonnes (32.49%).

In addition to production, distribution aspects are also a focus. Pupuk Kaltim ensures that fertiliser stocks are in a safe condition and ready to be shipped to various regions, particularly to meet the needs of subsidised fertilisers.

As of 27 April 2026, he conveyed that the ready-to-ship stock of urea and NPK fertilisers was recorded at 618,393 tonnes. This figure reflects the company’s distribution readiness to maintain smooth supply in the field.

“We also ensure stock readiness in a safe condition and ready to be distributed through the distribution network to various regions in Indonesia. Especially with subsidised urea stock. This is the total combined between urea and NPK, subsidised products at 618,393 tonnes as of 27 April 2026. This is a safe stock,” he explained.

Anggono stated that the stock level has exceeded the minimum threshold (service stock), namely 131% for urea and 196% for NPK. With this condition, the company ensures that fertiliser supply for farmers remains maintained and secure.

“Our service stock is around 131% for urea, above the service stock. And for NPK, 196%. This means with stocks exceeding the service stock, we can guarantee a safe supply for farmers,” he concluded.
