Indonesian fish farmers are using innovative fish feeding technologies to save costs and increase production.
In the West Java province of the country, a local aquaculture startup has developed a digital fish feeding system that consists of an auto feeder controlled by a mobile app.
The auto feeder feeds fish with the right frequency and with the correct amount of food. Using the mobile application, farmers remotely monitor and control the feeding process and intervene in case of a problem.
Edy Prasetyo a 53-year-old fish farmer, and father of three, has recently adopted the auto feeder on his farm in Indramayu, after having used traditional systems for more than twenty years.
SOUNDBITE (Bahasa) Edy Prasetyo, fish farmer:
“It makes our jobs easier, especially when it rains. There’s a lot of positive impact after implementing digitalization. We can feed the fish from home using the auto feeder app.”
As feed costs 70 percent of the farming expenses, farmers are using auto feeders to reduce feed waste and management costs.
Fish grow bigger and faster on farms that use the digital feeding systems, increasing productivity and ensuring that enough nutritious food is available for the local population. Farmers’ livelihoods are improving.
Aquatic food plays a crucial role in ensuring food security in the country, contributing to half or more of the total animal protein intake for Indonesians, according to the latest Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) report on the State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture.
SOUNDBITE (Bahasa) Edy Prasetyo, fish farmer:
“Of course, our income increased. That is thanks to the precision and accuracy of the automated feeder, which is an improvement compared with feeding the fish manually.”
Mobile apps and digitalization have shown their potential in improving production also in the agricultural sector.
In Ciwidey, West Java, the Al-Ittifaq Boarding School is teaching young farmers how to use wireless irrigation systems that allow more efficient and sustainable use of water. More than 60 boarding schools in Indonesia have followed this example.
SOUNDBITE (Bahasa) Setia Irawan, CEO of Al-Ittiqaf Cooperative:
“The increase in productivity doubled when compared to conventional methods.”
The technology allows scheduling and controlling irrigation through a mobile app. The systems that consist of sensors adjust water quantity according to the moisture in the soil, avoiding water waste.
SOUNDBITE (Bahasa) Setia Irawan, CEO of Al-Ittiqaf Cooperative:
“The result is we can reduce water consumption up to 80-85 percent.”
In Indonesia, the fourth most populated country in the world, 43 percent of the population lives in rural areas and agriculture is largely dominated by smallholder farmers.
Under the Digital Village Initiative, FAO is supporting the Indonesian government in introducing digital innovation into the agriculture and aquaculture sectors particularly to benefit those in the most inaccessible areas. The goal is to improve production and food security in the country while reducing environmental impact.
SOUNDBITE (English) Aziz Elbehri, Senior Economist, FAO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific:
“In Indonesia, we are implementing this initiative at two levels. First supporting the government in developing a new e-agriculture strategy. And at the second level, we are also trying to implement a component of the strategy at the local level, at the field level, through the Digital Village Initiative.”
The Digital Village Initiative in Indonesia is a collaboration between FAO and Bogor Agriculture University (IPB). The initiative aims to facilitate public and private action at the local level to test, deploy, and provide digital solutions for food production and distribution.
As part of this initiative, FAO has also launched the 1,000 Digital Village Platform to promote good practices that can be replicated and adapted by rural communities across the Asia-Pacific region.
The Digital Village Initiative is part of FAO's efforts to achieve the 2030 Agenda Sustainable Development Goals. |
