Appreciate of IFI Jogja and Jakarta to promote healthy food for public in a nice way. Congratulation and thank you.

Presentation of Martani
  • Rita has a chance to present a photos slide continue by points of lesson learns from Warung Pecel PSSM Martani. As a new approach, operating warung pecel as place of living library and training center is quite challenging.
  • Yusup shares view of Martani. We provide options for public. Not everybody able to consume gluten and GMO. There is an option of local ingredient which by chance produce by local farmer. Big is not always good. Small but fair.
  • Nicolas from Palm Elit shows the beauty become a breeder especially on oil palm. Glad to hear that they do conventional breeding system and not GMO one;

The Seed War
I impress with a woman farmer who clever try to find access to local seed. She got some local corn seed that she replants to get more seed so she can provide corn for her cattle. Smart! We should learn from this film before the situation in Indonesia becomes worst.

  • Need a local real action to solve the seed war
  • Increasing public understanding about the situation of TNCs and the seed war now
  • Create local demand for local vegetable products of people in the city. When there is demand, the farmer has willingness to plant local seed.
  • Using economic instruments to conserve land and water is possible by warung kopi.
  • Pinarak Warung PSSM Martani in Tulung, Kalasan, Jogjakarta.
