Beddu then enrolled at the Agricultural Faculty of the Gadjah Mada University in 1957 and graduated in 1966 with an engineer's degree (Ir.).
On 30 September 1965, the party supported the acts of a rebel group of the army, which killed Col. Katamso, the region's military commander and his chief of staff, Lt. Col. Sugijono.
In response, the Indonesia Army sent a group of troops under the command of Sarwo Edhie Wibowo to the region, which was welcomed by Beddu.
He then held a mass meeting at the northern square of Yogyakarta and unilaterally declared the dissolution of the communist party on 21 October 1965.
[2] Beddu returned to Indonesia in 1984 and was appointed as an expert assisting the Head of the State Logistics Agency.
He was a member of the People's Consultative Assembly for seven years from 1 October 1992, and Chairman of the Food Security Board of ASEAN for 1989–1990 and 1994–1995.
On the day of his inauguration, reporters questioned whether the separation of office has any relations with the 1994 droughts which caused uncontrollable inflation in food prices.

[11] On 27 August 1998, President Habibie dismissed Beddu from office and replaced him with Rahardi Ramelan, the Minister of Trade.
The State Logistics Agency was removed from the direct control of the president, becoming an institution under the Ministry of Trade.
[12] Dawam Rahardjo, a reporter from the Republika newspaper, considered Beddu's dismissal to be related to conflict about the procedure for importing rice and cooking oil between Beddu and Rahardi Ramelan and Adi Sasono (Minister of Cooperatives, Small and Medium Businesses).
