Pak Tani Digital is a startup of the agricultural digital marketplace that connects farmers with agricultural stakeholders. We are aware that the problem experienced at the farm level is the problem of agricultural trade systems that are detrimental to farmers due to too long a distribution chain. Therefore, Pak Tani Digital was built to break the chain of distribution that was too long to improve the welfare of farmers through selling online.

• Indonesia

• Remote and rural communities

The high internet users in Indonesia are opportunities. Data for 2017 internet users in Indonesia has reached 143.26 million from 262 million (54.68%) and smart phones that have reached 120 million units and the number of SIM cards that have spread to the population of Indonesia itself. The number of millennials in 2020 has reached around 86 million people. Indonesia's digital market potential is even greater than 2.5x compared to Malaysia and about 25x more than Singapore. Likewise, the development of fintech-crowd funding / loan-type financial institutions has sprung up to e-commerce / agricultural markets.
It does not stop there, the population of Indonesia has increased from year to year, in 2017 as many as 245 million people and in 2018 as many as 265 million people who have very much in need of food. This is the biggest opportunity for Pak Tani Digital to engage in the agricultural market

Digital Farmers believes that only collaboration is one of the things needed by Mr. Farmer Digital to support the branding of the Social Online Market for Indonesian Farmers. This branding at least increases the awareness of the national scope for the farmers or the closest information chain that the struggle for farmers' welfare can be started with Go Digital and one of them is through the Pak Tani Digital market place. And we hope that WSIS will collaborate with Pak Tani Digital in terms of developing a digital agricultural market for Indonesian farmers.
