Global Hunger Situation and Indonesia's Context
📌 Global hunger is a serious issue, leading to chronic food shortages, worsening public health, and increased healthcare expenditures.
🇮🇩 Indonesia is ranked at level 18 in global hunger categories, considered a moderate level, yet it is among the highest in Southeast Asia.
🗺️ The challenge in Indonesia is not generally food availability but uneven distribution across its vast territory, causing malnutrition, especially among lower-middle-class populations.

Challenges in the Agricultural Sector
👩‍🌾 Increased food production does not proportionally match the welfare of farmers, evidenced by low Minimum Wage (UMK) earnings.
👨‍🌾 As of August 2020 data from BPS, the average wage for workers in agriculture, forestry, and fisheries was only IDR 1.92 million per month.
🌱 There is a low interest among millennial generations in pursuing farming professions.

Priority Actions for Zero Hunger 2030
1️⃣ Equitable Food Distribution: Implement precise scaling and continuous monitoring/coordination across regions to stabilize food distribution throughout Indonesia.
2️⃣ Farmer Welfare Support: Provide welfare allowances (tunjangan kesejahteraan) to equip farmers and align policies with the goal of self-sufficiency (Swasembada).
3️⃣ Youth Engagement: Offer counseling/outreach programs in every village regarding the "Millennial Farmer" program to foster youth entrepreneurship and potentially reduce the poverty rate.

Key Points & Insights
➡️ Indonesia's primary food challenge is logistical distribution, not scarcity, impacting marginalized communities.
➡️ Achieving the Zero Hunger 2030 target requires simultaneous efforts in distribution logistics and ensuring farmer economic well-being.
➡️ Investing in youth entrepreneurship within agriculture via dedicated programs is a crucial strategy for future sustainability and poverty reduction.
