Of course, it is a ‎historic event for the farmers Tasikmalaya which has long been working on organic rice. ‎So also with the Bupati Tasikmalaya Tatang Farhanul Hakim. He was happy at the same ‎time claim to be proud of these achievements achievement. This is increasingly reinforce ‎its determination to make the Tasikmalaya regency as organic rice barns in the country. ‎Regent Tatang the previous award winning votes because of the president is able to ‎increase rice production in the area and appreciation Stars Jasa Pratama field of ‎government.

Regent Tatang Thursday confirming that no export activities of organic rice from farmers ‎to Tasikmalaya Ameriksa States. After that, to Singapore, Hong Kong, and other. Its ‎release will be made by the Minister of Agriculture Mr. in front of Pendopo Kab. ‎Tasikmalaya.
Tatang said: As a successful farmer we exist. I'm not vain since 2002 the program of ‎organic agriculture. I try to convince farmers not to continue efforts to put out chemical ‎fertilizers. Now, a new perceived benefits, that is to be sold overseas to the rice to ‎develop environment-friendly organic fertilizer use, even to the United States.

Farmers who have been involved has reached eight percent. We will continue to try to ‎develop. In addition, eight percent of the organic, have been able to increase rice ‎production five percent in Tasikmalaya. That I think is quite meaningful. Hence, we ‎received an award from the central government. If the public interest to continue to ‎organic, the production of our rice. Do not wrong, all of that to push up farmers' income ‎as well.

The target itself is knowledgeable organic rice can be developed in Tasikmalaya?
‎I hope to reach fifty percent of the total area wide for this to get a good supply of water. ‎Our target, Tasikmalaya into organic rice in West Java. We will focus on the organic rice ‎because, in future, the price will be good and also not damage the environment. Farmers ‎also do not hold in a busy with the increase in chemical fertilizer prices. I have a contract ‎with the camat demo plot so that they make in their respective districts, as well as the ‎development of farm animal dung for the supply of organic fertilizer. I also Involve ‎military, police, and various parties to develop the same SRI rice production because this ‎will be good and friendly environment.
While the trouble do is change the behavior pattern of the farmers. During this time, ‎farmers are pampered with chemical fertilizers and permissive IM. Meanwhile, SRI for ‎rice, fertilizer should make first. Then, the rice should be intensive care, up to seven ‎times the first planting shake-shake or rice. Changing culture is difficult, therefore I try to ‎keep the program around the village. Moreover, current export and so will attraction for ‎farmers. I also work with the head office, camat to the village for the development of this ‎rice.

During this regent governments provide facilities for the development of organic, such as ‎seed assistance. Then, handling the irrigation network have priority. Now, certification ‎and other assistance. Assistance to livestock farmers and other groups. We support all ‎this because you want to agricultural progress.‎
