Stimulus for the Horticulture Sector

In an effort to develop the horticulture industry, the Government has issued Government Regulation No. 25 of 2014 on Facilities and Incentives for Horticulture Businesses (“Regulation”).[1]  To achieve this objective, the central and regional governments (“Government”) will provide facilities and incentives for farmers, farmer associations, individuals and businesses engaged in horticulture businesses (collectively referred to as “Stakeholders”).[2]

Stakeholders that qualify to receive facilities and incentives are those that are engaged in horticulture activities, namely germination, harvest and post-harvest activities, processing, distribution, trade and marketing of horticulture products, research and development, and agritourism.[3]
