Abstract

Most of the residents of Lampeudaya Village, Darussalam District, Aceh Besar Regency, work as farmers. These farmers, particularly those growing jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis), face the problem of low soil fertility, which impacts production. This community service activity aims to provide scientific and practical solutions to the problems faced by farmers particularly concerning low soil fertility and limited knowledge of appropriate technology. The partners involved in this program were 25 active farmers highly motivated to improve crop yields through environmentally friendly technological approaches. The implementation methods included in-service training (IST) and on-service training (OST) using a participatory approach, encompassing theoretical sessions, hands-on practice in producing biochar from rice husks, and evaluation through pre- and post-tests. The results of the activity showed a 45% increase in participants' knowledge and a high level of satisfaction with the content and delivery methods. Most participants began producing and applying biochar independently on their farms. This activity successfully enhanced the farmers technical capacity, ecological awareness, and economic potential. The activity recommends continued mentoring programs to ensure the sustainability of biochar production and its application in sustainable farming systems. This training model can be replicated in other areas with similar characteristics.

Abstract

Ecoenzyme is the result of fermentation of organic kitchen waste such as fruit and vegetable pulp, sugar and water. Ecoenzyme acts as various purposes such as pesticide and disinfectant. Therefore, we conducted community service activities aimed at providing a training in making ecoenzymes from household organic waste. Ecoenzyme-making training was given to the Family Welfare Development Group (PKK) in Gampong Kopelma Darussalam, Banda Aceh. The participants were lectured about ecoenzyme and its benefits and followed by discussion. It was then followed by a practical session on ecoenzymen-making activity. From this activity, the PKK group in Gampong Kopelma Darussalam, Banda Aceh, gained knowledge about a method to manage household organic waste become useful products. Furthermore, these skills can also be a source of additional income for local residents. During the training, the service team brought ready-made ecoenzymes and plants so they could provide examples of how to apply ecoenzymes to plants. The ecoenzyme and plants were given as souvenirs to the training participants.

Abstract

The processing of coffee cherries yields unused fruit skin waste, which can be transformed into valuable vermicompost. Vermicompost, which is generated through the process of introducing earthworms such as Eisenia foetida, incorporates vital macro- and micronutrients alongside plant growth regulators. A pre-survey revealed several issues faced by partners: (1) Neglected potential of coffee pod waste area, (2) Fertilizer challenges among horticultural, chili, and shallot farmers, (3) Limited knowledge about coffee pod skin composting as organic fertilizer, and (4) Inadequate cultivation management leading to unprofitable outcomes. To address these challenges, the Community Service Team collaboratively agreed with partners to: (1) Provide counseling on utilizing Eisenia foetida-inoculated coffee waste as vermicompost organic fertilizer, (2) Enhance horticultural farmers' understanding to reduce excessive inorganic fertilizer use, (3) Pilot coffee waste vermicompost application in intercropped chili and shallot cultivation, and (4) Establish coffee waste vermicompost packaging as a farmer group business venture. The achieved outcomes include: First, partner farmer groups received counseling on vermicompost production using Eisenia foetida worm inoculation. Second, partners significantly improved their vermicompost production proficiency. Third, demonstration plots successfully showcased chili and shallot cultivation using vermicompost. Fourth, partners effectively produced vermicompost, leading to a 20% reduction in production costs. Finally, partners were inspired to actively produce and apply vermicompost in their intercropped chili and shallot cultivation, reflecting positive motivation and progress.

Abstract

The use of synthetic chemical fertilizers to enhance plant growth has become a common practice in the community. However, continuous use of synthetic chemicals can cause damage to the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil. Not only that, but synthetic chemical fertilizers also leave residues on agricultural products that can disrupt human health. Therefore, we conducted community service activities aimed at providing knowledge about the dangers of synthetic chemicals and training in the making of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) using noni fruit as an environmentally friendly alternative fertilizer material. LOF-making training was given to the Family Welfare Development Group (PKK) in Gampong Kopelma Darussalam, Banda Aceh. The activity began with the delivery of material on the dangers of synthetic chemicals to the environment, followed by a discussion. It was then followed by a practical session on making LOF using noni fruit. From this activity, the PKK group in Gampong Kopelma Darussalam, Banda Aceh, gained knowledge about the dangers of synthetic chemicals and the skills to make LOF that can be used as a substitute for the synthetic chemical fertilizers that they usually use. Furthermore, these skills can also be a source of additional income for local residents.
