The low production of sugar which cannot meet the large demand of sugar consumption in Indonesia caused by inefficient processes initiates the INAGRITECH 2017 to present its premier sub-event named SugarMach Indonesia 2017
SugarMach Indonesia 2017 is the premier show focusing on sugar machinery, innovation, and technology. This show gains a strong support from the Indonesian Sugar Association (AGI) and Indonesian Sugar Professional Association (IKAGI) as SugarMach Indonesia 2017 is held in an attempt to push Indonesia’s infrastructure development in sugar industry as well as supporting the country’s effort to achieve sugar self-sufficiency.

According to the Indonesia Ministry of Trade, Indonesian sugar consumption within the consumer retail segment is 3 mn tonnes per year, while national sugar production is only about 2.5 to 2.7 mn tonnes per year resulting in a shortfall of 300-500,000 tonnes of sugar. Therefore, the new government is committed to building 10 new sugar mills between 2015 and 2020 with Rp 42.5 trillion (US$3.1bn) of investment. Each mill is hoped to be able to process 30,000 tons of sugarcane per day. To achieve the goal, Indonesia’s sugar mill must upgrade and use the modern technology and machinery for its sugar production.
