Socio-economic uncertainties, market and institution failures, and unexpected impacts of climate change are problem complexity faced by recent Indonesian agriculture sector. Facing this condition, several findings (whether discovery or invention), local wisdom original or global introduction have been applied into innovations. Even though several local knowledge have been subordinated by global innovation, massive attention towards local knowledge in recent times shows that synergy of local and global innovations is compulsory. Similar to modern society, indeed, at their knowledge level, traditional society is recognized as responsive, smart, and anticipative to challenges and uncertainties at ecological, economic, and social dimensions. Hence, as a part of development process, rice agro-industrialization definitely must involve these local wisdoms and knowledge.

This paper is a mixture of interpretation of survey results with reflection of literatures and other research findings related to the above issues.
