ABSTRACT
With the establishment of the ASEAN Economic Community in 2015 and its economic
performance, ASEAN has achieved world-wide recognition for being one of the most dynamic
and integrated regions. The growing purchasing power of the 600 million consumers market
and the ongoing progress of the regional agenda are offering an integrated market and
production base for both business and consumers.
There are some challenges and opportunities in the establishment of the ASEAN
Economic Community in 2015 for both businessmen and government of Indonesia, from the
point of view of agriculture, there are some opportunities in the implementation of AEC in
2015, such as for the increase of performance in agriculture, including plantation,
horticulture, livestock, fisheries and forestry, started from the production up to the post
harvest and post productions; for the improve of the coordination among the ministries and
govern and industry; and for preparing and formulating of the socialization packages
regarding the important of AEC and its benefits for the country of Indonesia and her people.
Food is the most basic need and the most important element that support our lives. A
shortage of food may harm the health and sustainability of human life. Therefore food must
always be available in sufficient quantities and at affordable price including for the poor.
Since the Seminar is in the contact of the World Food Day, that for the discussion and
presentation focused on the opportunity to get benefit from the implementing the AEC 2015
by producing and supplying the foods to the coming single market of ASEAN starting in
2015. Thanks to its large areas of land and sea, year-round productive climate and extensive
manpower, Indonesia has the potential to be a major food producer of a great variety of
crops. The country should in fact be fully self-sufficient and even be able to take on some of
the burden of supplying food to the world, hence “Feed Indonesia Feed The World. In the
4
year 0f 2010, Indonesian chamber of commerce and industry stated a commitment to boost
food production with the vision: “Towards a competitive and sustainable self-sufficiency and
promotion of prime commodities to become the world’s choice.
It will be realized when we achieve two main objectives: One, improving the growth of
food production to achieve sustainable food self-sufficiency; and Two, improving the
productivity and efficiency of production at on-farm and off-farm levels to enhance the
competitiveness of domestic food commodities. Considering the limited availability of assets
to achieve food security, the development of food sector needs to focus on a number of
superior commodities. There were 15 superior commodities that have been decided, as follows:
four strategic food commodities: rice, corn, soybeans, and sugar; Six superior export
commodities: oil palm, tea, coffee, cocoa, shrimp, and tuna; Two commodities supporting the
improvement of people’s nutrition: meat and milk. Three popular local fruit commodities:
mango, banana, and orange. Besides the above commodities, the future development of the
food sector needs to pay better attention to commodities supporting the food diversification,
such as cassava, tropical fruits (snake fruit, mangosteen, and sour sop) and horticulture to
support the people’s nutritional improvement. Base on the above vision and the 15 superior
commodities, there are opportunities for the members of Kadin Indonesia or the businessmen
concerned to market of those commodities to the ASEAN single market, including to
Indonesian domestic market with high quality and high competitiveness. There are some
recommended strategies to anticipate the coming AEC 2015: The businessmen should take
benefit from a big single market of ASEAN with almost 600 million consumers; The
businessmen and government of Indonesia should established and strengthened the Domestic
Market with almost 260 million consumers; Increased processed products, especially food
products for ASEAN single market, the government and the autonomic government should
improve the infrastructure to support the businessmen in taking benefit from the ASEAN
single market, increasing the result of research and development for agricultural
commodities, especially for food commodities for ASEAN single market, and all innovation
result and technology from various government institutions and also from private sectors
should be disseminated and promoted to all stakeholders, including businessmen.

Conclusion: all market opportunity in the implementation of AEC 2015 with 600 million
consumers will be taken benefit by the Indonesian businessmen; It should be strengthened the
Domestic Market; Using National Standardization of SNI for all the products and services to
be marketed into ASEAN single market; promoting the organic food; and improving all
infrastructure in the producing center areas.

PAST TIME
Water Needs
It requires about 500 grams of water to produce 1 gram of dry plant material. About 5
grams or 1 percent of this water becomes an integral part of the plant. The remainder is lost
through the stomata of the leaves during absorption of carbon dioxide. Atmosphere
conditions such as relative humidity and temperature play a major role in determining how
quickly water is lost and the amount of water plants require.
Since the growth of virtually all economic crop plants will be curtailed when a shortage of
water occurs, even though it may be temporary and the plants are in no danger of dying, the
ability of the soil to hold water against the force of gravity becomes very important unless
rainfall or irrigation is frequent.

FUTURE TIME
Oxygen Requirements
Roots have openings called lenticels that permit gas exchange. Oxygen diffuses into the
roots cells and is used for respiration, whereas the carbon dioxide diffuses into the soil.
Respiration releases energy that the plant needs for synthesis and translocation of organic
compounds and the active accumulation of nutrients against a concentration gradient.
Some plants (rice, for example) can grow in standing water because they have
morphological structures that permit the internal diffusion of atmospheric oxygen down into
the root tissues. Successful production of most plants in water culture requires aeration of the
solution. Great differences exist between plants in their ability to tolerate low oxygen levels.
Sensitive plants may be wilted or killed by saturating the soil with water for a day. The
wilting is believed to result from a decrease in the permeability of the root cells to water, a
result of a disturbance of metabolic processes due to an oxygen deficiency.
Aerobic microorganism, bacteria, actinomycetes, and fungi utilize oxygen from the soil
atmosphere and are primarily responsible for the conversion of nutrients in organic matter into
soluble forms that plants can reuse.
