Indonesian Vice Trade Ministry Bayu Krisnamurthi, believes export markets, since the greater the biopesticide agricultural products consumed the international community demanded free of harmful substances. "We have an idea for an interesting alternative as a biopesticide. Of course to raise the price of tobacco and production of the commodity the greater the other agricultural crops including such as coffee and cocoa, "he said in the Roundtable Dialogue "Diversification of Non-Cigarette Tobacco Products" at the Mercure Grand Hotel.

He explains, the use of biopesticide that could help farmers to diversify products and urge people to come out of pertembakauan polemic health and smoking. "Similar Information we provide to industry peers such as Sampoerna and Djarum cigarettes. We want them separating tobacco smoking, "he said. Challenges of Community tobacco today, he said, is to make tobacco has more value in the trading market. "Java has the potential to manifest it. Moreover, the orchard, East Java has now that can convert the value to the value of agricultural tourism. We are grateful to the State University of Jember and Perhepi always follow all the issues about tobacco, "he explained.

On the other hand, industries could be likened to going through the war, namely health against smoking. That condition reinforced by advertising smoking restrictions are growing. "On the one hand, we support fully the role of the Ministry of health in order to spread out information regarding  the dangers of smoking. However, we also want to change the thinking of people who see tobacco smoking, synonymous with tobacco is tobacco and smoking is smoking, although during this time 99 percent of tobacco used for smoking, "he said.

Therefore, the Trade Ministry hopes to build a non-tobacco smoking and tobacco prices are able to draw on a range of more or less the same with smoking. "Ideally the tobacco prices don't be too cheap or range between 35,000-45,000 USD is thus quite interesting and beneficial to farmers," he said.

Currently, the volume of tobacco reached 230,000 tons to 130,000 tonnes generated Java. Looking ahead, the resulting tobacco farmers expected zero percent nicotine solution. "Indonesia has a long history of tobacco. Like tobacco in Besuki and Deli which have export market in Bremen, Germany, and this can spur the rise of tobacco industry in the future, "he said.
