During the Suharto era, the government launched the transmigration program that relocated landless farmers from the overpopulated Java to the less populated Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Papua, thus expanded agricultural farms in the outer islands of the territory.[36]. The country possesses vast and abundant arable fertile soils. The regulation mandates that all growers, including both large plantations and smallholders, be certified before 2025 (GAIN ID0016, 2020[13]). The objective of this programme is to strengthen national food reserves. In 2020, the MoA launched a strategic programme to achieve a self-reliant and modern agriculture. The programme will be expanded to cover 165000hectares by the year 2024.

Indonesia responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by expanding its food assistance programmes. This fact implied that the government and large private estates took a minor role in Indonesian rubber industry.
