2008-03-21 11:43:00 Agriculture Minister Anton Apriyantono said Indonesia lacked agribusiness players despite the fact that it is a big agrarian country. "The number of people willing to do agribusiness in Indonesia is even smaller than that of Singapore which has a large number of agribusiness investors," the minister said when he opened the "Agrinex Expo 2008" here on Friday. He said that the number of players in the agribusiness sector in Indonesia was small although the agribusiness sector in the country had bright prospect as it was predicted that the need for agricultural products, particularly food and energy, in the future would continue to increase.
