Indonesia Delays 1.2 Million Tons of Raw Sugar Imports to Boost Domestic Production
The Jakarta Globe | English | News | Nov. 13, 2025 | Supply Chain Issues
The Indonesian government has postponed the import of 1.2 million tons of raw sugar for industrial use, representing nearly 30 percent of the country's 2025 import quota. Of the total 4 million ton quota, 70 percent has already been realized, with the remaining 30 percent now on hold. This decision aims to boost domestic sugar production and reduce reliance on imports.
Deputy Agriculture Minister Sudaryono emphasized the government's focus on achieving self-sufficiency in food commodities, including sugar, for both household consumption and industrial purposes. He noted that imports for industrial demand will be gradually reduced until full self-sufficiency is reached.
According to Agriculture Ministry data, national sugar production increased to 2.46 million tons in 2024, up 8.57 percent from 2.27 million tons in 2023. Production is expected to rise further to 2.9 million tons in 2025. The government targets sugar self-sufficiency for household consumption by 2028 and for industrial use by 2030.
