“Developing a common legislative bill on agrarian reform is decisive in order to overcome the agrarian crises we have been facing for years!” cries out Usep Setiawan of the Consortium for agrarian reform (KPA) during the opening of the national Forum that took place in Jakarta last January 29th and 30th.
During this forum, KPA united legal and agricultural experts to set up legislative bills on land reform and define strategies in order to advocate to the Parliament. This project intends to end the disparities in agricultural resource management in Indonesia. Professor Sediono M.P. Tjondronegoro, agricultural expert, stressed the importance of the method used. It was therefore decided that the concerned fishermen and farmers would be largely involved in defining the law through forums and meetings.
