Indonesia plans rice assistance for 33.2 million beneficiary families from October through December 2026. CNN Indonesia reported on November 5 that the scheme allocates 10 kilograms per family each month, or 30 kilograms over three months. The total requirement is estimated at about one million tonnes.

Alongside direct aid, officials cited one million tonnes of SPHP rice to be sold at Rp12,500 per kilogram. Bulog also plans to auction around 380,000 tonnes of older stocks to industry and small businesses at a reference price of Rp11,000 per kilogram, subject to food-safety requirements. Small livestock farmers are to receive about 150,000 tonnes of maize at Rp5,500 per kilogram.

The plan uses several channels: household assistance, rice supply for the market, and input support for businesses and farmers. Its impact will depend on targeting, distribution, and quality. These figures describe the plan as reported; they do not confirm that all volumes have reached beneficiaries.
