Tangerang and Cirebon Regional Governments Work Together to Suppress Red Onion Inflation
A direct visit was made by the Head of Economic Section of Tangerang Regency Regional Secretariat, Iskandar Nordat to Cirebon Regency to ensure the availability of sufficient onion supply from the area.
Cirebon is known to have great potential in onion production, with the area of onion farmers reaching around 300 to 350 thousand hectares.
“We want to make sure that the communication between us and the onion farmers in Cirebon runs smoothly.
We hope that with this cooperation, the supply of onions from Cirebon can meet the needs of Tangerang Regency, especially when the demand increases,” said Iskandar at the location.
Inter-regional cooperation is considered a strategic step in containing inflation, especially to ensure the availability of basic materials.
“If the need for shallots in Tangerang Regency is not sufficient, we can immediately get supplies from Cirebon,” he added.
According to Iskandar, price monitoring and price intervention through activities such as Cheap Market Movement to Market Operation is also part of the government’s strategy to stabilize prices.
“With smooth supply, prices will return to normal, and inflation can be suppressed,” he said.
On that occasion, the Coordinator of Horticulture of Cirebon Regency, Didin Jaenudin welcomed this cooperation.
He hopes that the collaboration between the two districts can maintain the stability of shallot prices in the market.
“With this cooperation, when the price of shallots in the market rises, we can help Tangerang Regency by providing a stable supply.
Hopefully, this cooperation can be extended to other districts to deal with the inflation of shallot commodities,” he said.
Furthermore, the Chairman of Bawang Merah Cooperative, Cirebon District, Wasirudin expressed his support for the government’s efforts to support farmers.
He stated that, as a cooperative, his party will continue to bridge the gap between farmers so that they can get better access to onion cultivation.
“The farmers fully support this cooperation, especially with the support of the government that continues to try to improve the welfare of farmers,” he said.
Wasirudin is optimistic that with this cooperation, in the year 2025, Cirebon Regency will become an excellent onion production center, in line with other areas such as Brebes.
“We are also preparing high-quality Cirebon onion seeds, so that farmers can be more motivated to plant onions and increase production,” he hoped.
