Abstract

Lime (Citrus aurantifolia (Christm.) Swingle) is one of the important agricultural commodities for residents in the Bolo village, Gresik. The resident of Bolo Village owns an average of 1/4 hectare of lime plantations. However, the price of lime is not stable. In the harvest season, when conditions become surplus in the market, lime prices often drop, causing losses for the farmers. Lack of knowledge about lime product processing is also an obstacle in the utilization and processing of crops. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of citrus farmers in Bolo Village to utilize and process lime crops into Home Industry products, so they do not suffer losses when the lime price drops. Activities are carried out through learning using interactive lecture methods and training through product manufacturing demos. The successful indicator was carried out by evaluating the participants' level of understanding before and after the activity. The training activities significantly increased the participants' knowledge and experience. In addition, this activity also obtained data on the needs of lime farmers. It is hoped that this data can be used for the continuation of the next activity or can also be used by the local government, which wants to help advance agriculture and product diversification in the village of Bolo.

This trend has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic along with various restrictions that have made almost all levels of society restrict activities outside the home. It is very important for the community to have adequate knowledge, both about modern and traditional medicine, to ensure the effectiveness of the drug so that the expected recovery or health improvement can be achieved. Based on this main problem, the author provides community service in the form of counseling to increase public understanding regarding modern and traditional drug self-medication. Online-based counseling using lecture and discussion methods via webinars involved 305 participants from various regions in Indonesia.
