Coffee Annual
ID2026-0021 – Indonesia’s green bean production will likely decrease 8 percent to 11.38 million bags in 2026/27 due excessive rainfall during the flowering and fruit development phase in Robusta production areas in Southern Sumatera and other areas in Java Island. Post revised Arabica production down in 2025/26 related to floods that hit Arabica production regions in Aceh and North Sumatera. Post projects Indonesian green bean exports at 7 million bags for 2026/27.
Cotton and Products Annual
ID2026-0015 – Indonesian cotton production in 2026/27 is forecast to remain insignificant. Despite minimal trade barriers, cotton imports are expected to decline in both 2025/26 and 2026/27. The primary driver is reduced demand from Indonesia’s textile and textile products industry, which continues to struggle with various impediments to growth. These challenges outweigh the favorable trade conditions for cotton imports.
Sugar Annual
ID2026-0014 – Indonesia’s sugarcane production is forecast to decrease to 35 million metric tons (MMT) in marketing year 2026/27, with plantation white sugar production falling to 2.5 MMT. Strong El Niño conditions are expected to reduce both harvested area and sugarcane yields. Despite this decline, the Government of Indonesia (GOI) is not expected to issue import allocations for plantation white sugar and is expected to sharply reduce raw sugar import allocations for industry in 2026/27. This decision reflects an anticipated increase in 2025/26 plantation white sugar production. Sugar consumption is forecast to rise marginally to 7.25 MMT (raw sugar equivalent) in 2026/27. Population growth and expanding demand from the food and beverage industry will drive this increase, though growing health consciousness will temper consumption gains.
Oilseeds and Products Annual
ID2026-0013 – Indonesia’s 2026/27 palm oil production is forecast to rise 3 percent to 48 million metric tons, up from 46.7 million metric tons, driven by a wave of trees planted between 2021 and 2024 reaching maturity and the wider use of higher-yielding seed varieties. Soybean meal demand from the feed sector is expected to remain strong in 2026/27, although importers may experience significant uncertainty in 2025/26 under new government import policies. Lower coconut prices are also projected to improve copra mills’ utilization rates in 2026/27.
Food Processing Ingredients Annual
ID2026-0011 – Indonesia offers strong opportunities for U.S. suppliers to support its $101 billion food processing industry, which relies heavily on imported ingredients. The United States is the fourth largest supplier with an 11 percent market share, maintaining a strong position in key products such as soybeans, wheat, and dairy products. Demand for imported inputs continues to grow, although competition from countries with preferential trade agreements remains strong.
Grain and Feed Annual
ID2026-0010 – The anticipated early onset of the 2026 dry season, combined with the potential for a moderate El Niño that could bring hotter, drier weather through late 2026 and early 2027, is expected to increase corn harvested area in 2025/26 and 2026/27 since some farmers are likely to switch from growing paddy to corn, which requires less water. Consequently, paddy harvested area in 2025/26 and 2026/27 is forecast to decline, since most corn and paddy are grown in the same fields. Nonetheless, due to higher paddy and corn production in 2024/25, the Government of Indonesia (GOI) did not allow imports of medium-quality rice for consumption or rice for industry. The GOI also reduced the corn import quota for industry in 2025/26, which led corn wet millers to temporarily shut down in late 2025. In contrast, wheat imports in 2026/27 are forecast to increase to meet higher demand from the growing feed and poultry sectors and rising consumer demand for wheat-based foods, with an expected increased market share for U.S. wheat.
FAIRS Export Certificate Report Annual
ID2025-0055 – The FAIRS Export Certificate Report lists the major export certificates and other Government of Indonesia (GOI) requirements for U.S. food and agricultural products exports.

Biotechnology and Other New Production Technologies Annual
ID2025-0038 – Since food security is a top priority of the President Prabowo administration, Indonesia’s national strategy supports increased research and development of agricultural biotechnology products and has taken steps to approve agricultural biotechnology events. Notably, the Government of Indonesia has accepted the food safety of golden rice, but cultivation is still pending approval for feed safety and environmental safety, as well as variety release. In addition, authorities have taken a favorable approach to regulating gene editing and approving stacked trait events, which will help facilitate the development and import of related products. Unfortunately, the Government of Indonesia has not prioritized the development of animal biotechnology. There is still no regulatory framework for genetically engineered animals and no genetically engineered animal products have been approved for commercialization.
Dairy and Products Annual
ID2025-0044 – Published on November 21, 2025 Indonesia’s milk production increased to 722,883 metric tons in 2025, with record production projected for 2026, due to partial recovery from the 2023 Foot and Mouth Disease outbreak combined with significant cattle imports and improved management in modern dairy farms. This growth creates opportunities for U.S. live cattle, […]
