Abstract

Banana and taro are two of the many plants that grow in Tempursari Village. These commodities will have a low selling value if traded directly. As a result, a processed food diversification strategy is required to increase the economic value of these plants, such as processed chips with flavor variants based on the intended target market. The mentoring activity was carried out with the participation of 20 participants, who were representatives from two hamlets. Outreach activities, training, practice, and mentoring are all part of the implementation process. Based on these activities, the outcomes of processed food products, particularly banana chips and taro chips, have the potential to provide an alternative method of increasing the economy by utilizing abundant natural resources.

Abstract

One of the untapped potentials in Tempursari Village, Candimulyo District, Magelang Regency, lies in the sheep farming business. However, this endeavor has yet to reach its optimal potential due to the limited knowledge of breeders regarding sheep farming and marketing. To address this, mentoring activities were initiated for breeders in Tempursari Village, aiming to optimize their businesses through a green economy-based revolving livestock concept. The mentoring process commenced with a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) involving four current breeders and two prospective breeders. This session delved into a comprehensive analysis of the challenges faced and the aspirations for business development. As a result, a sheep farming group named 'Migunani' was established. The breeders received education on effective sheep farming practices and determining appropriate product sales prices. The mentoring activities concluded with the provision of assistance, which included ten 12-month-old sheep and seeds for fodder plants such as bb biogen, red napier, and pakchong, each comprising 300 stems. Supplying fodder plant seeds aims to enable farmers to cultivate their own feed, eliminating the need to graze elsewhere to meet the dietary requirements of the sheep.
