NPGF Ready to Launch New Products: MKP and KNO3 Fertilizers
NPGF announced plans to launch two new water-soluble fertilizer products, MKP (Mono Potassium Phosphate) and KNO₃ (Potassium Nitrate), in early 2026.
This step is part of the company's strategy to expand its portfolio and strengthen operational fundamentals in the modern agricultural sector.
NPGF President Director, Ujang Suparman, explained that the development of water-soluble fertilizers is a response to the growing market demand for precision fertilization solutions.
"Agriculture is currently moving towards input efficiency and consistent results. Water-soluble products like MKP and KNO₃ are capable of providing a fast response and high absorption rates," he said.
According to Ujang, both products are completely chlorine-free, making them suitable for high-value commodities and sensitive crops. NPGF emphasized that the development of MKP and KNO₃ aligns with the national need to maintain stable agricultural and plantation production.
"Nutritional efficiency and production stability are part of our contribution to the food security agenda. High-purity products will help farmers and plantations achieve more consistent yields," Ujang added.
MKP fertilizer is high in phosphorus and potassium, ideal for flowering and fruiting, while KNO₃ provides nitrate nitrogen for direct plant uptake, as well as potassium for crop quality and storage.
The combination of these two fertilizers supports productivity and the specific nutritional needs of horticulture and plantations.
In terms of performance, NPGF projects that MKP and KNO₃ will begin to contribute gradually to sales from the first year of launch.
The company estimates that these two products will contribute a significant portion to sales growth by 2026, as the adoption of water-soluble fertilizers increases in the domestic market.
This contribution is expected to come from the agriculture and plantation segments, supported by the increasingly widespread adoption of various precision fertilizer application methods.
To support this target, NPGF has prepared a series of field tests, strengthened quality control with a solubility standard above 99%, and conducted technical education materials for distributors and marketing teams.
This approach is expected to accelerate market penetration while maintaining consistent product quality.
Ujang believes that the launch of MKP and KNO₃ has strategic significance for the company.
"We continue to gradually strengthen our product line and operational performance. Our focus is on providing relevant, modern, and long-term solutions for the agriculture and plantation sectors," he said.
The official launch is scheduled for the first quarter of 2026 and will be followed by a series of publications, demonstration plots, and fertilizer efficiency campaigns in various regions.

What is Granular Fertilizer? Granular fertilizer is a fertilizer in the form of solid granules with a relatively uniform size. This granule form is produced through mechanical or chemical processing, making it easier to apply to agricultural and plantation land. Compared to powdered or liquid fertilizers, granular fertilizers have several advantages, such as longer shelf life, resistance to clumping, and greater efficiency in nutrient absorption by plants. Advantages of Granular NPG Fertilizer 1. Easy Application Granular NPG fertilizer is easy to spread manually or with the help of mechanical equipment, saving time and labor. 2. More Even Nutrient Release With a uniform granule form, fertilizer distribution across the land is more even. This is crucial to ensuring plants receive a balanced nutritional intake. 3. Minimal Nutrient Loss Granular fertilizers are more resistant to evaporation and washout during heavy rain, resulting in higher fertilizer efficiency. 4. Suitable for Various Commodities NPG granular fertilizer is widely used in oil palm plantations, horticulture (chili, tomato, onion), and food crops (rice and corn).
NPG Granular Fertilizer for Oil Palm Oil palm is a major commodity that requires large and continuous amounts of nutrients. NPG palm fertilizer is the right choice because: 1. Nutrients are more stable in the soil even with high rainfall. 2. Application is more efficient in plantation areas with large hectares. 3. Optimal yields, both for vegetative growth and fresh fruit bunch (FFB) productivity.
As a national granular fertilizer producer, Pupuk NPG has supported many oil palm plantations with NPG palm fertilizer products formulated according to the specific needs of the crop. This has resulted in a sustainable increase in oil palm productivity.
NPG Granular Fertilizer for Horticulture and Food Crops In addition to oil palm, NPG fertilizer is also increasingly used in the horticulture and food crop sectors. 1. Horticulture: Crops such as chili peppers, tomatoes, and onions require precise fertilization for maximum yields. Granulated NPG fertilizer provides macro and micronutrients with a more controlled release. 2. Food Crops: Rice and corn require fertilizers that can maintain nutrient availability throughout the growing season. NPG fertilizer is a solution for cost efficiency while increasing crop yields.
Granulated NPG Fertilizer and the National Food Security Program The Indonesian government is currently promoting a national food security program to ensure the availability of strategic food commodities such as rice, corn, soybeans, and various horticultural commodities. Within this program, balanced fertilization and efficient fertilizer use are crucial factors in increasing land productivity. Granulated fertilizer plays a significant role in supporting this program because it: 1. Ensures more even nutrient distribution. 2. Reduces fertilizer loss due to evaporation or rainwater washout. 3. Increases crop yields in a more sustainable manner.
As a national chemical fertilizer producer, NPG (PT Nusa Palapa Gemilang Tbk.) is committed to supporting the government in achieving food security by providing granular NPG fertilizer tailored to the needs of oil palm plantations, horticulture, and food crops.

Gresik, August 20, 2025 – PT Nusa Palapa Gemilang Tbk (NPGF)'s performance showed a positive trend in the first half of 2025. The company posted sales of IDR 71.56 billion, a 37.7% year-on-year (YoY) growth, driven by increased demand for Granulated NPK fertilizer. This achievement also boosted net profit to IDR 1.42 billion, a 33.8% increase compared to the same period the previous year. NPGF President Director, Ujang Suparman, explained that the surge in demand from the plantation sector was the main driver of performance.
"Demand for our Granulated NPK has increased significantly, particularly from the oil palm plantation and industrial forestry sectors. This is one of the main factors driving the company's sales and profit increases," explained Ujang.
In the first half, the Granulated NPK segment contributed the largest to total revenue, at IDR 55.92 billion. The Briquetted NPK segment contributed IDR 3.83 billion, and the Micro Fertilizer segment recorded IDR 11.29 billion.
New Boost from Early Contracts in Q3 Entering Q3 2025, NPGF secured a new contract worth IDR 71 billion for the procurement of NPK fertilizer for the palm oil, industrial plantations (HTI), food crops, and horticulture sectors in Java, Kalimantan, and Sumatra. This acquisition is considered a significant catalyst for sales performance in the second half. The company stated that it will remain focused on strengthening distribution and increasing capacity in the non-subsidized fertilizer segment, particularly Granulated NPK, to maintain growth momentum until the end of the year.
Outlook for Semester II 2025 Positive financial performance in the first half of 2025 and the successful acquisition of new contracts puts NPGF in a more stable position for the remainder of the year. The company will also implement operational efficiencies and maintain product quality as part of its sustainability strategy. Going forward, the company projects that demand from the plantation sector still has the potential to grow, as agro-industrial activity begins to recover. Consistent sales strategies in the non-subsidized sector are expected to contribute to the realization of NPGF's annual targets for 2025...
