Government to Enact KSPEAN Master Plans for Four Provinces Targeting 6 Million Hectares
Indonesia will soon enact master plans for food, energy, and water self-sufficiency zones in four provinces, targeting about 6 million hectares of degraded land.
The Indonesian government will soon enact master plans for Food, Energy, and Water Self-Sufficiency Zones (KSPEAN) in four provinces — South Papua, South Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan, and South Sumatra — according to statements by the Deputy for Food Affairs at the Coordinating Ministry for Food Affairs reported by CNBC Indonesia and detikFinance.
Officials said candidate land covers around 6 million hectares, selected from 9.7 million hectares of degraded land after returning state forest areas and excluding plots smaller than 100 hectares. The government stated the program involves no conversion of natural forest, focusing instead on degraded land rehabilitation, in line with Presidential Instruction 11/2026 on rehabilitating land affected by forest and land fires. A KSPEAN aquaculture zone recorded its first harvest in November. Implementation schedules and managing entities for each zone have not yet been announced.
