Abstract

The Tri Dharma of Higher Education is a concept that guides higher education institutions in carrying out their duties and functions. This concept consists of three pillars, namely: Education and teaching, Research, and Community Service. Community service activities for lecturers are an effort to carry out one of the duties of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education. The community service carried out in this activity was related to Technical Recommendations for Crop Cultivation to Increase Rice Production among Farmers in Sambirejo Timur Village, Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Serdang Regency. This activity aimed to implement the Tri Dharma of Higher Education for lecturers in order to contribute theoretical and practical agricultural knowledge to farmers. This community service, which is a collaboration between two lecturers from Nusa Cendana University and Nahdlatul Ulama University of North Sumatra (UNUSU), provides farmers with the knowledge they need to increase rice production. The expected outcome of this activity is that farmers will understand the factors of crop production so that in the future they can analyse the crop cultivation problems they face and solve them independently.

Abstract

The irrigated rice farming sector in Indonesia faces challenges of labour shortages and soaring production costs, which necessitate modernisation through mechanisation. However, the implementation of agricultural machinery and equipment is often hampered by low technological literacy and a lack of understanding of maintenance management at the farmer level. This community service activity aims to bridge the technical knowledge gap through outreach and education on strategies for the effective and efficient use of agricultural machinery. The method employed is a participatory approach involving lecturers as expert resource persons and students as field facilitators through four stages: problem identification, thematic education, field practice demonstrations, and evaluation. The results of the activity indicate that the transfer of knowledge regarding the three main pillars of mechanisation—appropriate effectiveness, operational efficiency, and maximisation of function—successfully shifted farmers’ mindset towards becoming professional technology managers. The application of appropriate operational patterns has been proven to reduce production costs by 25–30%.
