What people are saying
The presence of the Indonesian Farmers and Fishers Movement, Gerbang Tani, is part of a collective effort to fight for the interests, rights, dignity and welfare of farmers and fishers throughout Indonesia.
If the country wants to advance and succeed, then agriculture is where it must happen. Otherwise, it will not move forward.
With a fresher board dominated by the younger generation, Gerbang Tani is ready to work harder and more optimally over the next five years.
Our farmers and fishers still face structural inequality and very limited production tools.
