[3] The Indonesian Agency for Agricultural Research and Development (Indonesian: Badan Penelitian dan Pengembangan Pertanian, Balitbangtan) was the research arm of the Ministry of Agriculture until it formally dissolved on 21 September 2022 by Presidential Decree No.

[4] At the time of the dissolution of Balitbangtan, some of the Balitbangtan researchers transferred to the National Research and Innovation Agency (Indonesian: Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional, BRIN) and placed under the Research Organization for Agriculture and Food (Indonesian: Organisasi Riset Pertanian dan Pangan, ORPP).

[5] On 8 November 2024, BSIP was dissolved and replaced by the BrMP by Presidential Decree No.

[6] However, the research and engineering functions formerly owned by the agency during the Balitbangtan period were partly revived.

According to the Ministry of Agriculture, only 25% of the research functions of the original Balitbangtan are restored in the BrMP but with a higher level of advanced technologies and applications than the ORPP, as ORPP performed much of the basic agricultural research.
