Abstract

Tangkit Baru Village is a major pineapple production center in Jambi, yielding over 728,000 quintals annually. However, this massive production generates significant organic waste from local home industries, which remains largely unmanaged. This community service program aimed to address this environmental challenge by empowering the Women’s Farmers Group (locally known as Kelompok Wanita Tani or KWT) through eco-enzyme technology. The program was implemented in four stages: Survey, Socialization, Technical Training (using a 1:3:10 fermentation ratio), and a three-month Mentoring phase. The results demonstrated a significant impact, with participants' knowledge increasing by 41.1% (from 45.3% to 86.4%). Technical success was high, with 80% of participants successfully producing quality eco-enzymes (pH < 4.0). Furthermore, 90% of participants adopted the liquid for household cleaning, indicating a profound behavioral shift. This program proves that eco-enzyme technology is a feasible, low-cost solution for agro-industrial waste recovery while enhancing community resilience and sustainable waste management practices.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effect of different withering methods on physicochemical and organoleptic properties of Liberica coffee leaf tea (Coffea liberica) and to identify the optimal treatment. The experiment was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five withering treatments, including no withering, room temperature withering for 10 h, air withering for 10 h, oven withering at 60°C for 30 min, and steaming for 2 min, each with four replications. The observed parameters included powder moisture content, pH, color (L*, a*, b*), antioxidant activity, total phenols, total tannins, flavonoids, and sensory attributes, namely color, aroma, acidity, taste, aftertaste, and overall acceptance. The results showed that withering method significantly affected color, moisture content, antioxidant activity, total phenols, total tannins, flavonoids, and organoleptic attributes related to aftertaste and overall acceptance, while pH, aroma quality, acidity, and taste were not significantly affected. The non-withered sample demonstrated the highest antioxidant activity and total phenolic content. The room temperature withering for 10 h produced antioxidant activity (57.59%) that was not significantly different from the non-withered sample, but offered superior sensory performance. This treatment produced a dark orange (brownish) infusion with L* (45.75), a* (29.25), and b* (49.50), the highest overall hedonic acceptance (3.72), and the most preferred color (3.84). In conclusion, withering at room temperature for 10 h represents the optimal processing method for producing Liberica coffee leaf tea with a balanced combination of functional properties and consumer acceptability.
