NPGF Boosts Chili Productivity to Strengthen Food Security in Magelang
PT Nusa Palapa Gemilang Tbk (NPGF) is once again strengthening its field-based growth strategy by holding Farmer Field Days (FFDs), which are consistently held in various regions of Indonesia. The latest event took place on Mr. Supriyanto's chili farm in Kamongan Village, Srumbung District, Magelang, Central Java (May 5).
The event was attended by approximately 65 participants, consisting of local farmers, Women Farmers Groups (KWT), and Agricultural Extension Workers (PPL) from various areas in Srumbung District. On this occasion, NPGF not only provided education on effective chili cultivation practices but also distributed samples of superior products such as NPG 16-16-16-TE Fertilizer and NPG Booster 13-6-27-4-TE as a direct approach to farmers.
On this approximately 1,700 square meter plot, the entire chili cultivation cycle, from the vegetative to the generative phase, was carried out using NPG fertilizer.
The results were measurable. The plants had entered their 13th harvest and remained in optimal condition: no wilting symptoms were observed, the stems were strong, and fruit productivity remained high and consistent. This is an important indicator that the NPG fertilizer formulation is capable of maintaining plant stability even in less-than-ideal weather conditions.
More importantly, this performance occurred despite high rainfall, a major risk factor in chili cultivation, as it is susceptible to disease and reduced yields.
However, in this demonstration plot, the plants remained healthy with no indications of significant pest attacks such as the smut.
On this occasion, NPGF also introduced new products, MKP and KNO3, as part of a strengthened plant nutrition portfolio.
Mr. Supriyanto, the landowner, expressed his hope for the sustainability of this program:
“FFDs like this have a direct impact on us. We hope they can continue to be held regularly so that more farmers, including the KWT (Farmers Group) in this area, can reap tangible benefits and increase their agricultural yields with NPG fertilizer.”
From the extension worker's perspective, validation also comes from the field. Mr. Amrul Jihad, a field instructor who assists the villages of Ngablak, Kemiren, and Mantingan, emphasized the relevance of this activity:
“This FFD is timely because it's being held during a time of high rainfall. In conditions like these, education is crucial. Interestingly, the results in this field show that the use of NPG fertilizer can still maintain plant health without attacks from pests like caterpillars. This is concrete evidence for farmers.”
Meanwhile, Cika Deswert, Public Relations Officer for NPGF, who was also present, emphasized that this activity is part of the company's strategy to build market trust based on real performance:
"We are not solely focused on sales, but on measurable and replicable results. The FFD is a means for us to demonstrate the consistent performance of NPGF products in direct cultivation practices. With this approach, we encourage sustainable increases in farmer productivity as part of efforts to strengthen food security and support the achievement of national food self-sufficiency."
Activities such as the FFD not only strengthen the brand at the farmer level but also serve as a form of market validation that drives organic demand growth. The consistent implementation of this program plays a role in strengthening the company's revenue base, while also creating a foundation for more stable and sustainable growth.
Through a combination of product demonstrations, education, and portfolio expansion, NPGF positions itself not only as a fertilizer producer, but as a results-oriented agricultural partner.
