The program for the procurement of sacrificial cattle, he said, was a program from the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Indonesia, but for the process of searching for cattle, it was still submitted to Marine and Fisheries Ministry Riau.
"Regarding the implementation of the process of slaughtering sacrificial animals assisted by President Jokowi, it will be the responsibility of the Riau Regional Secretariat Bureau, while it only looks for cattle to farmers in this area", he said.
The previous year, President Jokowi assisted with one sacrificial cow with a weight of 820 kilograms given by the president.
