Indonesia Dairy Market Size & Insights
Indonesia dairy market size is estimated to witness a robust CAGR of 10.1% between 2025 and 2032 owing to the population growth, increase in disposable income, and new government programs focus on improving milk production and distribution.
Indonesia Dairy Market Overview
Indonesia dairy market analysis observes that the local fresh milk production accounts for only 16% of the total demand and most of the demand of milk and milk products is met through imports, as the demand for milk is growing which means that there will be a substantial need to ramp up imports. This includes powdered milk from New Zealand and Australia’s live cattle that potentially offers a boost to exporters due to lower demand from China.
According to Ministry of Agriculture Indonesia, the milk consumption per capita stand at 16.27 kg annually, Indonesia lags behind Southeast Asian countries like Vietnam and Thailand where consumption is around 26 kg, while also falls far short of the worldwide average of approximately 100 kg. According to the FAO, this is attributed to restricted land availability, expensive dairy cattle maintenance, small-scale farms, and a 2022 outbreak of foot and mouth illness that cut domestic production.
Indonesia Dairy Market Drivers
Increase in disposable income
The surge in disposable income within the middle class is a significant driver for Indonesia dairy market expansion. This financial improvement is leading to higher dairy products consumption with a particular focus on premium items such as flavored milk. As dietary habits have become more diverse, the average consumption of dairy products has increased substantially. These products offer an array of vital micronutrients and high-quality protein.
Population Growth
The market is witnessing surge in milk demand driven by the growing population. With the rising population and greater demand for high-nutrition foods, milk and dairy products are projected to gain popularity as a primary protein source and boosts the expansion of Indonesia dairy market size.
Government Initiatives
The other key factor supporting the growth of Indonesia dairy market is a new government initiative to distribute milk to the population which ensures greater availability of this important nutrient. With a total budget of USD 28 billion upon full implementation, the program seeks to address nutritional issues in a country with high grain-based caloric intake, low milk consumption, and a stunting rate of 21.5% among children below the age of five.
Prabowo Subianto the president of Indonesia slated to start his presidency in October after his February election victory, he has advocated for the country to achieve food self-sufficiency. Nevertheless, the country still depends on substantial imports of wheat, beef, and dairy. The Agriculture Ministry of Indonesia has indicated that the lunch program which also includes complimentary meals for pregnant women, will necessitate 4.1 million tonnes of milk. In contrast, the US Department of Agriculture forecasts that Indonesia’s milk consumption will reach four million tons this year.
Prabowo has been pushing for a White Revolution aimed at increasing milk consumption for more than ten years. In his campaign, he highlighted the necessity for Indonesia to bring in 1.5 million dairy cattle to expand the industry and decrease import dependency. This would mark a dramatic increase from the roughly 260,000 dairy cattle estimated by the USDA at the close of 2023 in cooperatives and advanced farms. Such an import scale could take over ten years to accomplish and would cost billions. The top milk exporter to Indonesia in 2023 was New Zealand which sent almost USD 600 millions of dairy products, while the European Union ranked second.
