almost everyone in Indonesia. The purpose of this article is to describe the
factors that affect the demand for and supply of rice in Indonesia. The type of
research in this research is associative research and descriptive analysis.
Public demand and supply of rice products by entrepreneurs in Indonesia
experience different changes, and the relationship between the two is not
necessarily balanced. The Indonesian government needs to evaluate the
mechanism of rice planting, harvesting, distribution and marketing in
Indonesia and food companies that handle the distribution and marketing of
rice commodities throughout Indonesia and maximize sales of rice collection
and processing to the Indonesian people. The supply and demand for rice in
Indonesia are influenced by several factors such as export and import
operations, structural issues, the business environment and issues related to
demand and supply.
