Issued as part of the FAO's global coin program, which ran through the 1970s and commissioned dozens of nations to produce circulating commemoratives tied to the Food and Agriculture Organization's development campaigns. Indonesia's participation reflected the Suharto government's New Order agricultural policy, particularly its push toward rice self-sufficiency — a goal the country actually achieved by 1984. The brass-clad steel construction was a deliberate cost-reduction choice as base metal prices climbed through the early 1970s following the collapse of Bretton Woods.
