Abstract

Essential oil distillation is one of the local economic activities developed by the Bunga Tani Group in Wayame Village, Ambon City, Maluku. However, the group still faces challenges in optimizing local resources, developing value-added products, utilizing distillation by-products, strengthening institutional capacity, and expanding market access. This study aims to analyze the local potential-based community empowerment model implemented through the Atsiri Duskar Wangi Program, a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative of Pertamina Patra Niaga Integrated Terminal (IT) Wayame. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and document review. The results indicate that the empowerment process strengthened the group’s existing assets and capacities through capacity development, product diversification, supporting production facilities, by-product utilization, institutional strengthening, market access development, and monitoring and evaluation. The intervention increased production capacity from 200 kg to 515 kg per production cycle and increased group income from approximately IDR 24,000,000 to IDR 55,000,000 per production cycle. The program also supported the development of derivative products and the conversion of distillation by-products into compost fertilizer. These findings demonstrate that an integrated, asset-based empowerment approach implemented through a corporate CSR program can enhance the economic value of local resources while strengthening community self-reliance and sustainable livelihoods.
