Sudaryono (born 23 January 1985), also known as Mas Dar, is an Indonesian politician and businessman who has served as Head of the National Nutrition Agency since 22 July 2026. His tenure has been marked by the continued occurrence of mass food poisoning incidents linked to the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program and uncertainty over law enforcement against those responsible, despite the number of victims continuing to increase, with as many as 2,000 cases occurring within a three-day period. He stated that the food-poisoning issue was only receiving widespread attention on social media and was politically and ideologically motivated. Previously, Sudaryono served as Deputy Minister of Agriculture from 2024 to 2026. He also served concurrently as President Commissioner of Pupuk Indonesia, despite the Constitutional Court prohibiting him from holding the position through Decision No. 128/PUU-XXIII/2025. He is a former personal assistant to Prabowo Subianto. As a businessman, Sudaryono operates numerous businesses in the media, food, technology, and healthcare sectors. He is the CEO of Garuda TV, CEO of PT Nusantara Telematics System, CEO of PT Indonesian Defense and Security Technologies, chairman of PT Sahabat Sejati Sejahtera Farma, and chairman of PT Boga Halal Nusantara. The latter company operates in the food sector, dealing in products such as beef, goat meat, chicken eggs, and fish. Within the Gerindra, Sudaryono has served as Chairman of the Gerindra Regional Leadership Council (DPD) of Central Java since 18 October 2023.
