What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Hashim Djojohadikusumo announced that Indonesia will no longer expand food and biofuel production in forest areas and is committed to ending deforestation for this purpose, shifting future increases to degraded land. This commitment follows Indonesia achieving rice self-sufficiency three years ahead of schedule. However, the Forestry Ministry noted that the shift does not clarify the status of existing projects in South Papua and Kalimantan.
