🙌🏻 About Us

Hi, we are Edufarmers (previously Japfa Foundation) embarking on a journey from 2015, where our commitment to the agricultural sector began, to the present day, Edufarmers has evolved its mission.

In 2021, recognizing the intertwined threads of agriculture and nutrition, we took a significant step forward by initiating a program aimed at aiding the government in reducing stunting rates.

This dual-pronged approach reflects our unwavering dedication to addressing the multifaceted challenges faced by Indonesian farmers and fostering holistic development of children welfare by supporting the government in stunting prevention programs.
