Abstract

Wood vinegar, scientifically defined as the condensation product of thermal decomposition (pyrolysis) of biomass rich in cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, presents a critical strategic step in efficient biomass waste management in Indonesia. Raw materials like coconut shells and palm oil waste are abundant, making their market potential highly promising. However, Indonesian Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) predominantly produce Grade 3 wood vinegar, which contains high levels of carcinogenic tar, hindering access to premium food-grade and pharmaceutical markets. This review aims to present a comprehensive report on the scientific characteristics and quality classification of wood vinegar, specifically analyzing the mechanism of action, effectiveness, and potential use of Grade 3 as an anti-termite agent (termiticide) and wood preservative, alongside its other advanced applications, such as food preservation, agricultural biopesticide, and latex coagulant. The method employed is a literature review, synthesizing data on chemical composition, purification standards (SNI and BPOM), and experimental findings on its multi-functional properties. The main conclusion is that Grade 3 wood vinegar proves highly effective as a termiticide, providing total wood protection and offering a safe, sustainable alternative to chemical wood preservatives. For food applications, rigorous purification to Grade 1 is essential to replace harmful practices like using formalin or borax. The novelty of this study lies in its integrated analysis of the technical efficacy (Grade 3 in termiticide) and the regulatory/commercial trade-off with food safety requirements (Grade 1), culminating in strategic recommendations for developing downstream purification technology for Indonesian SMEs

Abstract

Livestock waste management in Lempake Subdistrict, Samarinda City, presents a significant challenge in achieving sustainability within the livestock sector, especially in urban areas. Improper livestock waste management can lead to water, air, and soil pollution, negatively affecting health and environmental quality. This community service program aims to optimize livestock waste management by applying Circular Economy (CE) principles to reduce environmental impact by recycling livestock waste into biogas and organic compost. The program involves the Krida Karya Utama Farmers Group as the subject of the service, with the primary goal of enhancing the community’s knowledge and skills in sustainable waste management. The methods used include training, outreach, and the application of Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) principles to ensure the involvement of women in waste management. The program results show an increase in the farmers’ knowledge and skills, which directly impacts the economic resilience of farming families, especially for women. Additionally, Circular Economy-based waste management can reduce pollution and optimize the use of waste as a valuable resource for the community. Despite challenges related to infrastructure and the community’s understanding of the circular economy, this program has contributed positively to the sustainability of the livestock sector and the socio-economic welfare of the community.

Abstract

Latar belakang: Sistem pangan berbasis peternakan berkelanjutan memiliki peran penting dalam menjawab tantangan global terkait ketahanan pangan, gizi, dan kesejahteraan masyarakat pedesaan. Sektor ini masih menghadapi berbagai permasalahan seperti rendahnya efisiensi, keterbatasan nilai tambah, serta lemahnya kepercayaan konsumen terhadap kualitas dan keberlanjutan produk. Kondisi tersebut menuntut transformasi menyeluruh dari model produksi konvensional menuju sistem agribisnis terpadu yang menghubungkan kompetensi manajerial, inovasi produk, dan strategi berbasis perilaku konsumen. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan kerangka konseptual integratif yang menghubungkan manajemen agribisnis, hilirisasi produk, dan perilaku konsumen untuk memperkuat keberlanjutan usaha pangan berbasis hasil ternak. Metode: Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif melalui tinjauan pustaka sistematis terhadap publikasi tahun 2020-2025, penelitian ini mensintesis temuan teoritis dan empiris dari konteks global dan Indonesia. Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa manajemen agribisnis yang efektif melalui kompetensi manajerial, integrasi rantai nilai sirkular, dan digitalisasi dapat meningkatkan efisiensi dan ketahanan usaha. Hilirisasi produk mendorong penciptaan nilai tambah dan daya saing pasar melalui inovasi teknologi dan pengolahan ramah lingkungan. Sementara itu, perilaku konsumen yang dipengaruhi oleh kesadaran keberlanjutan, kepercayaan sensorik, dan keterikatan emosional berperan penting dalam membentuk preferensi pembelian dan loyalitas merek. Kesimpulan: Integrasi ketiga dimensi tersebut menghasilkan sistem sinergis yang mendorong inovasi, mengurangi limbah, serta memperkuat pertumbuhan pasar berkelanjutan. Kerangka ini berkontribusi pada pengembangan teori agribisnis berkelanjutan dan memberikan implikasi strategis bagi pembuat kebijakan, praktisi, serta wirausaha muda peternakan.
