Abstract

Limited utilization of home garden land and suboptimal management of urban organic waste are issues that can be addressed through the application of compost-based organic fertilization technology. This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of the Hiteurat Village community in utilizing municipal waste compost as a nutrient source for medicinal plant cultivation while optimizing home garden land productively and sustainably. The implementation method employed a participatory approach consisting of initial observation, identification of land potential and community needs, socialization, training on compost preparation and application, demonstrations of medicinal plant cultivation, and mentoring. Municipal waste compost was applied as a soil amendment and organic nutrient source for medicinal plants that are easily cultivated in home gardens, including ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, aromatic ginger, and Java turmeric. The program provided practical knowledge regarding organic waste management, organic fertilization techniques, and the use of home gardens as a source of family medicinal plants. It is concluded that the application of municipal waste compost represents an appropriate technology that can be adopted as an alternative organic fertilization strategy for developing household-level medicinal plant cultivation.
