Abstract

Indonesia has great agricultural potential, but the community's dependence on one main food source, namely rice, is still high, posing a risk to food security, especially in rural areas. Cassava, as an abundant local food source, has not been optimally utilized and has low economic value. This activity was carried out to identify the potential of cassava and introduce Cassamee as an alternative cassava-based food innovation to encourage food diversification and strengthen food security in Kemanisan Village, Tirtayasa District, Serang Regency. The activity was carried out through an educational and training approach that included food security socialization, screening of cassava-processing demonstration videos, introduction of Cassamee products, and product-tasting sessions. Data collection was conducted with 28 respondents using pre- and post-activity test instruments to measure knowledge, and questionnaires to assess attitudes and food consumption behavior. The data were analyzed descriptively and quantitatively using mean values and percentages. The activity results showed an increase in community knowledge after dissemination. In addition, the community's attitude toward and acceptance of Cassamee were positive. Overall, this activity increased the community's understanding and awareness of the importance of food diversification based on local resources, thereby potentially supporting food security and economic independence in rural communities.

Abstract

Indonesia is a mega-biodiversity country with a wealth of medicinal plants and strong ethnobotanical knowledge among indigenous communities. However, modernization and the declining interest of the younger generation have caused traditional knowledge and the availability of medicinal plants to be increasingly threatened, including in Kedayon Village, Kemanisan Subdistrict, Curug District, Serang City. This study aims to: identify the types of medicinal plants used by the Kedayon Village community, describe how they are utilized in traditional medicine, and analyze forms of conservation efforts that can be implemented by the community in a sustainable manner. The method used is descriptive qualitative through field observation, documentation, and interviews. The results of the study identified 16 types of medicinal plants utilized from various plant parts such as leaves, roots, rhizomes, and seeds, with simple processing techniques such as boiling, squeezing, or steeping. These findings indicate that the community still relies on natural resources for traditional health needs. Recommended conservation efforts include community-based in-situ cultivation through home gardens and yards, accompanied by education and routine maintenance. These efforts are important to maintain the scarcity of medicinal plants while preserving local knowledge for future generations.
