53 hlm : ill ; 23 cm - Agave is a potential natural fiber-producing plant with the advantages of strong fiber, resistance to high salt content, renewable and environmentally friendly. Natural agave fiber is widely used, among others, in the home industry, car interior materials and rigging. World production of agave fiber once reached 300,000 tons, which was produced from Brazil, China, Kenya, Tanzania, Madagascar, Indonesia and Thailand. Agave plant has the potential to be developed, especially in the Eastern Region of Indonesia where uncultivated agricultural land is still very large with an eratic climate suitable for agave cultivation. At this time PT. Sumbawa Bangun Sejahtera is developing 5,000 hectares of agave using the H-11648 variety. In large-scale development involving farmers, it is better to use an intercropping system that combines agave with secondary crops (maize, peanuts, mungbeans, and soybeans). Through the intercropping system, it is expected to increase farm income and reduce the risk of farming failure. The addition of secondary crops to agave cultivation is expected to support "Indonesian Food Security Programs".
