FOOD PRICE - JAKARTA. The Indonesian Farmers Union (SPI) has responded to the new government purchase price (HPP) for dry-milled paddy (GKG) at the farmer level, set at IDR 6,000 per kilogram (kg).

SPI Chairman, Henry Saragih, expressed that the new HPP GKG is still not beneficial for farmers due to the increase in production costs.
