Abstract

This research aims to determine the potential of durian to reduce cholesterol levels. This research used a completely randomised design as the basis for determining the sample size. There were 5 treatment groups, including durian seed extract (T1), durian albedo extract (T2), a combination of seed and albedo extract (T3) and those 3 treatment groups were given at a dose of 0.28 mg/head/day, quail eggs at a dose of 0.5 mL/head/day, and cholesterol reducing medication at 50 mg/head/day. The data were analyzed using the One Way ANOVA Test, which showed that p (0.004) < 0.05, leading to the conclusion that there was a real differences between all treatment groups. The seed extract group experienced the largest average decrease, namely 49.15 mg/dL, while the average decrease in the combination seed-albedo extract group and cholesterol reducing medication was 43.0 mg/dL, 33.4 mg/dL, and 28.7 mg/dL, respectively. The conclusion of this research is durian seed extract and albedo are effective in reducing cholesterol levels in the blood.

Abstract

This community service activity was conducted on October 5, 2025, at the orchid garden of the Puspa Pesona Farmer Group located in Silo District, Jember Regency. The partner group consists of 10 members who cultivate various orchid species, including Dendrobium, Vanda, and Cattleya, on a 2,000 m² area. The main problem faced by the farmers is the decline in production quality due to attacks from Plant Pest Organisms (PPO), such as mites (T. orchidarum and P. vandergooti), thrips (D. smithi), and the bacterium Erwinia carotovora, which causes stem and leaf rot. This activity aimed to improve production quality and farmers’ management capacity through training on the production of biopesticides made from Lantana camara leaves. This plant contains active compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and tannins that function as natural insecticides and antibacterial agents. The training included theoretical sessions, demonstrations, fermentation, filtration, packaging, and application to infected orchids. The results indicated increased farmer knowledge and practical skills in environmentally friendly pest management, reduced pest attacks, and greater awareness of sustainable orchid cultivation practices.
