Indonesia plans three egg and meat processing plants
Indonesia plans to build three plants to process eggs and meat into powder.
Agriculture Minister Andi Amran Sulaiman says the facilities would form part of a more connected livestock industry, from feed supplies to processing and sales.
The plants are intended to give farmers and livestock producers another outlet when egg and chicken production exceeds demand.
That could reduce reliance on selling fresh products, whose prices can fall when supply is high.
The government also hopes local production will replace imports of egg powder and reduce spending abroad.
Officials estimate an initial investment of about 200 billion rupiah per plant, potentially rising to 250 billion rupiah for a facility that processes meat.
The plans still need further study and cross-ministry approval, and construction could start in 2027 and take up to two years.
Indonesia plans to build three plants to process eggs and meat into flour products.
Agriculture Minister Andi Amran Sulaiman said construction could begin in 2027, subject to approval.
The government expects construction to take 1.5 years, with a maximum of two years.
The plants are intended to process surplus eggs and chicken meat and strengthen the livestock supply chain.
The government estimates initial investment at about Rp 200 billion per plant, potentially rising to Rp 250 billion for facilities that process meat.
