Aceh – The Aneuk Muda Aceh Unggul Hebat (AMANAH) Program continues to demonstrate its commitment to supporting the agricultural sector in Aceh through various initiatives, including the development of modern agriculture. One of AMANAH’s concrete steps is to distribute 50,000 seeds, fertilizers, and other supporting tools to improve food security and encourage economic growth in the region. This initiative also aims to prepare the young generation of Aceh to be more independent and ready to compete in the world of agriculture.

Coffee Farmer Ambassador, Harris, appreciated the program and said it was very beneficial for the agricultural ecosystem in Aceh. “The AMANAH program is very useful for building an ecosystem in the agricultural sector, as well as making Acehnese youth more prepared and independent to compete with other farmers,” said Harris. According to him, this support not only provides technical benefits, but also opens up interesting career opportunities for young people in the agricultural sector.

In this program, the concept of smart farming is one of the main focuses. The Aceh Provincial Regional Coordinator for the Millennial Farmer Ambassador/Reliable Farmer Ambassador of the Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture (Kementan), Marzuki, emphasized the importance of implementing technology in agriculture. “Smart farming is very suitable for millennial farmers who are familiar with technology,” said Marzuki. With this technology, farmers can increase efficiency and productivity, as well as manage land remotely, making modern agriculture more attractive to the younger generation.

Millennial Farmer Ambassador/Kementan RI’s Leading Farmer Ambassador, Vicky Shu, highlighted the importance of product quality in facing market challenges. “When we are afraid of losing, it means we prioritize quantity over quality. In fact, what keeps consumers loyal is quality,” said Vicky. He also encouraged young people in Aceh to dare to start businesses in the agricultural sector and focus on maintaining product quality.

Chairman of the Aceh Farmers Market Forum, Benni Baihaqi, added that strong branding is very important in marketing agricultural products. “We must dare to do branding so that our products are known and trusted by consumers,” said Benni. With the right branding, Aceh’s agricultural products can be better known and in demand in the market.

Sandi Octa Susila, General Chairperson of the Millennial Farmer Ambassadors/Reliable Farmer Ambassadors of the Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture, appreciated AMANAH’s initiative in improving the soft skills and hard skills of young farmers in Aceh. “This program is an important point in the development of agriculture in Aceh, and I hope more young people will be inspired to enter the agricultural sector,” explained Sandi.

This program is expected to inspire young people in Aceh to be more active in participating in the development of the modern agricultural sector, while also encouraging economic growth in the region.
