JAKARTA - Head of the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) Margo Yuwono said that the prediction of food shortages has become increasingly real in recent times. According to him, the global situation plays an important role in this change.
"Food scarcity has been predicted for a long time because of climate change," he said in a virtual discussion on Thursday, April 7.
Margo added that another main factor that also became a strong trigger for food shortages was the military conflict that occurred in Eastern Europe.
"The war between Russia and Ukraine has exacerbated food and energy shortages, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic," he said.

In his explanation, the Head of BPS explained that food shortages made the prices offered soar, such as wheat from around 200 dollars per metric ton to around 400 dollars per metric ton.
Then, CPO became 1.700 dollars per metric ton from only 990 dollars initially, and soybeans from 579 dollars per metric ton to 720 dollars per metric ton.
"These are some global issues related to food and of course, they can affect the condition of food in Indonesia," he said.
