Abstract

This article discusses the application of the drip irrigation method on large sloping land for cultivating Gamaumami Elephant Grass (Pennisetum purpureum) in the Platharan Sewu-Prigen educational tourism area, Pasuruan. In practical field work (PKL) activities, students are responsible for arranging water channels from upstream to downstream, covering the entire large area of land. The drip irrigation system was chosen to ensure efficient water distribution on land with challenging topography, with the aim of increasing agricultural productivity and supporting optimal growth of Gamaumami Elephant Grass which is used as animal feed. The results of this experience show that drip irrigation is able to maintain efficient water use, even on large and sloping land, and provides significant support for sustainable animal feed production. This article provides practical insight into effective irrigation and cultivation techniques on geographically challenged land, as well as their application on a large scale.
