Exploring Sanggau's Farming Trends: Rubber and Oil Palm Dominate

In 2023, farming households in Kabupaten Sanggau showcased their reliance on rubber (karet) and oil palm (kelapa sawit), with these two crops dominating the agricultural sector. Jangkang and Bonti stood out as hubs for rubber cultivation, while Parindu and Meliau led in oil palm production. Meanwhile, crops such as cloves (cengkeh), cocoa (kakao), and coconuts (kelapa) served as niche commodities, cultivated on a much smaller scale. This data underscores the significance of these main crops in driving the agricultural economy of Sanggau.

The insights highlight the potential for diversifying agricultural practices and leveraging niche crops to complement the mainstays of rubber and oil palm, ensuring sustainability and resilience in the agricultural sector.
