Big FFD Bomber ASA 101" is a field activity designed to introduce Bomber ASA 101 corn while also marking its grand launch in the Sumbawa region. This event took place on March 11, 2024, in Jamu Village, Luwuk Subdistrict, Sumbawa District. It was attended by approximately 500 local farmers and government officials, including the Head of Jamu Village, the Military Subdistrict Commander (Danramil), the Chief of Police in the Lunyuk Subdistrict, and the Head of the Sumbawa District Agriculture Department.
The event began with a tour for around 20 invited farmers to observe the Bomber corn crops in the field. The Promotion Officer team explained the characteristics of the Bomber corn, including the ears, stems, and roots. Following this, the farmers were given a questionnaire to evaluate the Bomber corn based on aspects such as growth uniformity, disease resistance, and corn yield. After the observations, the event continued with speeches from key officials, including the Head of the Agriculture Department, the Military Subdistrict Commander, the Chief of Police, and the Village Head.
The program then proceeded with a presentation on ASA products, followed by testimonials from farmers who had directly observed the Bomber corn in the field, aimed at convincing other farmers. The event ran smoothly, with farmers showing great enthusiasm for the potential of this corn. They expressed hopes that the quality and price of Bomber corn seeds would remain stable if demand among farmers grows.
