Abstract

Eco-enzyme, derived from various household wastes such as vegetables, fruits, or fruit peel, is an organic fertilizer rich in essential nutrients for plant growth. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of eco-enzyme concentrations on the growth and yield of several sorghum cultivars (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) in Tanjung Sari, Medan Selayang Subdistrict, Medan from June to September 2021. To achieve this objective, a Randomized Block Design (RBD) comprising 2 factors, namely eco-enzyme concentration (T0:0 mL/L, T1:9.3 mL/L, T2: 18.6 mL/L, and T3: 27.9 mL/L) and sorghum varieties (S1: Super 1, S2: Super 2, S3: Suri 4) was adopted. Eco-enzyme solution consisted of molasses, fruit peels (watermelon, cucumber, and orange), and water. The results showed that the interaction between Suri 4 and a concentration of 27.9 mL/L affected sorghum production. Each ecoenzyme and the varieties affected stem diameter (24.93 mm and 22.66 mm), flowering time (59.19 DAP and 56.00 DAP), as well as wet (631.03 g and 410.20 g) and dry stove weights (315.52 g and 205.10 g). Consequently, the application of eco-enzyme at a concentration of 27.9 mL/L enhances both the growth and yield of sorghum.

Abstract

educational institution that offers free education to its students. Its operational funding is supported by a business unit that processes palm sap into molded palm sugar, liquid palm sugar, palm sugar crystals, and other palm-based products such as candied palm fruit. However, the production methods used are still traditional and depend on simple tools, which often lead to variations in product quality. This community service program was designed to enhance productivity and improve the quality of palm sap products through the introduction of modern processing technology. The program consisted of seven phases: socialization, preparation of tools and materials, training, provision of equipment and technology, technology implementation, mentoring and evaluation, and ensuring sustainability. Participants included pesantren leaders, teachers, and students. The technologies introduced such as sap cooking machines, drying ovens, and sieving equipment—significantly improved efficiency. The sap cooking machine reduced processing time to about 2 hours, compared to the traditional 4–6 hours. The resulting molded, liquid, and crystal palm sugar products exhibited better and more consistent quality. Participants have also gained the necessary knowledge and skills to apply these innovations independently.
