Sleman to have agribusiness terminal

YOGYAKARTA: In an attempt to spur economic development in Sleman regency, provincial administration officials are planning to develop a special terminal to market agribusiness commodities.

With the terminal, the regency would be able to sell its agribusiness products to the local population so they would no longer need to buy the products from elsewhere, Sleman Regent Ibnu Subiyanto said here on Friday.

He said the terminal would also function as a training center for agribusiness agents and farmers while providing a showroom for agribusiness products.

The terminal's establishment would be conducted and completed this fiscal year. --Antara
