Indonesia plans to establish a government-backed corn buffer linking farmers, cooperatives, state logistics agency Bulog, and livestock breeders. Bulog would buy surplus corn for storage and release it during lean periods, especially from September to November, when feed availability typically tightens.
Government purchases could support corn demand and farmgate prices during surplus periods, while releases from reserves could ease shortages and price spikes later. The plan is intended to reduce volatility in a key livestock-feed input.
