Moisture deficiencies have resulted in persistent mild to moderate drought conditions and drought and erratic rainfall are expected to cause modest declines in the overall crop area for rainfed rice during the current USDA 2015/16 marketing year (October 2015 through September 2016). Low rainfall (less than 75 percent of normal) has been widespread this year, affecting rainfed rice prospects in both upland and lowland growing zones on all of the main islands. Rainfed rice area and production in particular are at their peak during this season, with more than a million subsistence farm families dependent on the rainfed crop for their livelihoods. The wet season is the most important rice growing period of the year, supporting both irrigated and rainfed grain farming. This year, many farmers had to delay rice planting into late January and early February. Planting typically begins with the onset of rains in October and is completed by late November. Rainfall in Indonesia’s prime rice growing areas on the islands of Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi, and Kalimantan has been erratic and deficient, forcing farmers to delay planting well beyond the optimal period during the wet season which traditionally runs from October through April.
