Making a Farmer's Card at the Agricultural Extension Center - Hive Garden
Hi Friends of the Hive Garden Community wherever you are, I hope all of you are in good health and can carry out various activities in the garden with enthusiasm.
Likewise with the activity that I carried out yesterday at the Agricultural Extension Center, we, members of the farmer group who received government subsidized fertilizers, were advised to apply for a Farmer's Card to obtain subsidized fertilizers whose prices are cheaper than non-subsidized fertilizers.

Yesterday we were also directed to open an account at a bank By the Head of the Farmers Group, maybe in the future the assistance given in the form of money and fertilizer can be purchased by ourselves in the market.
Hopefully this fertilizer subsidy can be realized properly and sustainably so that farmers are no longer preoccupied with the unavailability of fertilizers on the market when fertilizing plants must be done so farmers are more focused on caring for their plants.
As a result of the room being full, some people chose to fill out the forms given by the officers outside the room.
Previously, to redeem subsidized fertilizers, you didn't need a card, as a farmer, the data was already in the list of each group and recorded at the relevant agency, this time maybe after making a farmer's card, it will be given differently, but I don't know what the process will be, which is important for I fertilizer is always available in the market at an affordable price.
Some agricultural tools that are no longer used can be seen lined up behind the office while those that are still new and still usable are in the warehouse. We even used some of the tools on a borrow-lease system.
Thank you all my friends who have been here, I hope you will keep up the enthusiasm for gardening and get maximum results. See you at another time.
It's nice that the government organizes something like this. How much cheaper the fertilizer would it be for farmers who get the subsidiary? By the way I would like to remind you to also engage with other hivers that could potentially help your exposure as well.
For type of Urea Fertilizer (containing only element N) the price can reach Rp. 350,000 per sack. With subsidies, we can make up for it at a price of Rp. 160,000. Exchange rate comparison 1$ USD Rp. 15.000,-
For more complete fertilizers such as NPK, it can be up to IDR 500,000 per sack or around $ 33.33 USD.
1 Sack = 50 Kilo Grams
and thank you friend for reminding me.
