"Only 5 liters of rations. If one time the tractor plows the fields requires 10 liters. Yes, definitely not enough,” said Mariyono after plowing the fields in Sumber Village, Kradenan District yesterday (17/11).
“There must be a letter from the village. In fact, if you don't have it, you can't buy it," he explained.
Eko Djulianto, Supervisor of the Cepu Gas Station, confirmed that when buying solar, farmers must bring a letter of recommendation from the urban village and the agriculture service. This is because the solar subsidized quota for farmers has been allotted at each gas station.
