“Unlocking Growth in Indonesia’s USD 161 Billion Agribusiness Market”

12.72% of GDP (2019) | Millions of smallholders

Overview & Business Landscape

Valued at USD 161 billion, agribusiness contributes 12.72% of national GDP (2019). Dominated by millions of smallholder farmers, Volare focuses on creating impact for commodity producers, post-harvest enterprises, and supply chain distributors.

Macro Trends Digitalization

Growing demand for organic and sustainable products, both domestic and global.

National agricultural and livestock policies drive food self-sufficiency and resource conservation.

Rapidly expanding agritech ecosystem → more than 25 startups (2023) focused on consulting, financing, and mechanization

Early adoption of smart farming (drones, IoT, sensors) is emerging, though still limited.

Key Pain Points

Climate Vulnerability

With 83% of farmland dependent on rainfall, shifting weather patterns put staple crops like rice and coffee at serious risk. Livestock production is also highly sensitive to climate conditions, creating instability across the value chain.

Workforce Gaps

A shortage of skilled agricultural labor continues to undermine productivity, reduce quality, and limit the global competitiveness of Indonesia’s agribusiness sector.

Financial Barriers

Access to financing remains extremely limited—fewer than 10% of smallholder farmers have access to formal credit. As a result, many rely on informal lending with interest rates that can reach 20%, trapping farmers in cycles of debt.

Supply Chain Inefficiencies

Weak supply chain systems erode margins. Middlemen capture disproportionate value, while limited data visibility leads to mismatches between supply and demand, resulting in both surpluses and shortages.
