Agricultural Production Quality Articles

 Agricultural production has gained prominence recently because of climate change and food security. The exponential increase in the world’s population leads to an amplified demand for food. Although productivity of marginal lands such as peatland and upland is low, they can still be used for producing food to cater to the food needs of an increasing population. To support a transmigration program and increasing national rice production, the government of Indonesia maintained the development of peatlands agriculture on the islands of Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Papua. These peatlands are accomplished of producing food crops including rice, corn, soybeans, cassava, and other horticultural crops on shallow peat having relatively higher fertility and lower environmental risk related to deep peat.
