residents to overcome land limitation by optimizing pots as means to
plant vegetables.

“Planting vegetables in pots is a smart and
practical step to fulfill family nutrition,” stated Head of Jakarta TP
PKK Tatiek Fauzi Bowo during Family Empowerment Road Show at RW 01,
Pela Mampang, Mampang Prapatan, Wednesday (11/16).

Moreover she
said that pots can be planted with leafy vegetables, fruits, beans,
flowers, shoots, and tubers. By doing so, the vegetables planted in
pots will be healthier compared to vegetables in the market because
free from pesticide. “Planting in pots is the answer of land
limitation in Jakarta,” she added.

resident’s health. It is proven that citizen’s life expectancy rate
now is relatively higher than other districts in Indonesia. “For women
