The Indonesian government has set a target to improve the economic standing of its fishermen by raising the farmer-fisherman exchange rate (NTN) from its current level of 103 to 120. This initiative aims to address disparities in income and profitability between the agricultural and fisheries sectors. Details regarding the specific methods to achieve this increase were not provided in the initial announcement. A higher NTN indicates that fishermen are receiving better prices for their catch relative to the goods and services they purchase. This policy is expected to empower fishing communities and contribute to overall economic growth. Officials believe boosting the exchange rate will incentivize fishermen, supporting sustainable fishing practices and food security. The government anticipates positive impacts on the livelihoods of those involved in the Indonesian fishing industry.
