Moving Forward<br />

Following the upgrading of the listed Permanent Food Production<br />

Zones and re-alignment for production of focus fruits under the<br />

anchor companies, the Department of Agriculture (DoA) will<br />

monitor the implementation of the TKPM and establish additional<br />

5,000 hectares to plant the focus fruits under this EPP. The year<br />

2012 will see focus on construction and repair work on the<br />

Permanent Food Production Zones, with its first harvest expected<br />

to happen within the same year.<br />

EPP 8<br />

One of the EPPs that require 100 per cent private investment,<br />

the concept of a Food Park is to create an integrated facility for<br />

producing ready-to-eat packed food by small and medium<br />

enterprises (SMEs) marketed by an anchor company. This EPP<br />

aims to establish five food parks by 2020. For 2011, the MoA was<br />

tasked with attracting RM76.2 million in private investments and<br />

establishing one food park.<br />

Achievements<br />

Food Park<br />

The uptake for this EPP was slow due to the lack of incentives and<br />

lack of big-scale players who are willing to anchor the operations<br />

for a Food Park. Rukun Saksama Sdn Bhd was the first anchor<br />

company to participate in this EPP with an initial investment of<br />

RM10.5 million in exchange for being allowed to operate in an<br />

available space in Malaysian Agricultural Exposition Park Serdang<br />

(MAEPS). In September 2011, Pertubuhan Peladang Negeri Johor<br />

(PPNJ) signed up as the second anchor company managing<br />

10 SMEs producing poultry-based products in Kempas with an<br />

investment of RM9 million.<br />

Moving Forward<br />

NKEA: Agriculture EPP 6 – EPP 8<br />

Acknowledging the difficulty in implementing the intercropping<br />

project, DoA is also actively pursuing private companies to<br />

anchor the operations in several TKPMs and continue to provide<br />

assistance to the companies seeking to expand their farms. For<br />

2012, DoA aims to increase the export value of these focus fruits<br />

to RM304 million.<br />

MoA plans to re-strategise the approach in pursuit of more<br />

potential anchor companies to secure their participation in this<br />

EPP, aiming to attract up to RM70 million in private investments<br />

for 2012.<br />
