inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. Minister of Villages and Development of Disadvantaged Regions (Mendes PDT) Yandri Susanto said that his ministry allocated Village Funds of IDR 16 trillion from a total of IDR 71 trillion budget to support the realization of food self-sufficiency in Indonesia.

However, Yandri warned the village chiefs that the central government will strictly monitor the fund allocation.

The provisions for the allocation of Village Funds are contained in the Minister of Villages Regulation Number 2 of 2025 which states an allocation of at least 20 percent of Village Funds or IDR 16 trillion is to build food security in order to realize President Prabowo Subianto's goal of food self-sufficiency.

Furthermore, Minister Yandri conveyed that President Prabowo Subianto's program to realize food self-sufficiency has become one of the priority actions of his party.

He said that of the 12 priority actions to be carried out by the Ministry of Villages, Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration, local village food security is the second-most prioritized program.

In addition to the allocation of village funds and priority actions, collaboration is also needed to realize food self-sufficiency.

Thus, the Minister of Villages reminded that collaboration from related Ministries/Institutions (K/L) and stakeholders, both at the provincial, district, sub-district, and village levels, can take part in realizing the program.
