Abstract

The Bojongsari Fish Processing and Marketing Group (Poklahsar) in Kampung Nilaencountered primary challenges in managing the inventory of perishable fishery products and in financial management, which still relied on manual record-keeping. Manual systems were at risk of data loss, inaccurate calculations, and a lack of transparency, which negatively impacted the group’s accountability and business sustainability. The community service activity aimed to strengthen business governance and ensure the group’s business sustainability through inventory management, sales, and simple financial record-keeping; practical skills in basic financial reporting; and operating an integrated digital cash register. The outreach methods used in the activity included presentations on inventory and financial management; practical demonstrations of digital cash register applications; interactive discussions on operational procedures and coordination of price and stock changes; and an assessment of interest in transitioning from manual to digital record-keeping. The implementation of integrated digital cash registers enabled partners to acquire technical skills in inventory management, transaction record-keeping, and the preparation of simplified financial reports.Service delivery improved and the group's financial transparency became easily accessible. The implementation of digital cash registers fostered a collective awareness of the importance of financial and inventory management for the sustainability of community-based businesses. Partners adopted digital cash registers for daily sales activities in Kampung Nila as well as for product exhibitions outside of Kampung Nila. As a result, digital cash registerswere accessible to all product sales channels in Kampung Nila

Abstract

The fishing industry plays an important role in national food security and improving the community's economy. Ciamis Regency, through Kampung Nila in Kawali District, has been designated as a center for tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) farming. This commodity was chosen because of its rapid growth, affordable price, and stable market demand. However, farmers face high production costs due to their dependence on commercial feed, which reduces their profits. This community service program aims to increase farmers' independence through innovation in self-sufficient feed based on local materials. The method used is Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), with stages of socialization, training, technology application, mentoring, and evaluation, covering aspects of production and business management. The results of the activities show an increase in farmers' skills in producing independent feed, a reduction in production costs, and the strengthening of group institutions through collective business management, thereby increasing business profits that have an impact on community welfare. In addition to reducing costs, this program has an impact on increasing solidarity, economic independence, and local food security. The output targets include sustainable feed production skills, the formation of community-based institutions, scientific publications in national journals, and articles in print and electronic mass media.
