Abstract

Statistical data shows that rice production increases every period along with the increase in demand. Harvested paddy must be dried immediately to avoid damage due to microbial attack that can live in high moisture content. Therefore, the main objective of drying is to reduce the moisture content from the harvest moisture content (23-27%) to a safe moisture content for storage (14%). Currently, there are several dryers made as a solution in post-harvest handling of grains such as green beans, soybeans, grain and so on. One example of this dryer is the Fluidized Bed Dryer. This tool is a mechanical dryer that can be used in drying grain. The advantage of this tool is that the temperature can be controlled and can produce quality and uniform drying results. The purpose of this study was to determine the drying characteristics of Inpari 42 grain using a fluidized bed dryer. This research method uses speed variations of 1.5 m/s, 2.0 m/s, and 2.5 m/s with sample masses of 200 g, 250 g and 300 g, using a temperature of 55 ℃. The research parameters include moisture content, drying rate, damaged grain. The drying process shows that the change in sample mass is influenced by the air velocity used. Along with the increase in moisture content, the drying rate will affect the rate of drying obtained in this study the drying rate pattern is decreasing. It can be concluded that air velocity affects the drying rate and air velocity affects the cracked grain.

Abstract

Stunting is a significant public health issue that affects millions of children worldwide. The effects of stunting are not limited to physical growth deficits; they also encompass cognitive and developmental challenges that can have long-term implications throughout a child's life. Therefore, the issue of stunting needs serious and sustainable attention and handling. Desa Pulau Persatuan is one of the villages in the Pulau Sembilan District of Sinjai Regency with a relatively high number of stunting cases and has received attention from the Sinjai Regency local government. On one hand, Desa Pulau Persatuan is a producer of seaweed in Sinjai Regency, thus having resource potential that can be utilized to help address stunting. Therefore, a community service activity was conducted in the form of socialization and demonstration of seaweed biscuit production with the aim of helping to reduce the number of stunting cases in Pulau Persatuan village through the fulfillment of nutrition for children and pregnant mothers. The activity was conducted in the form of socialization and direct demonstration to the community at the Pulau Persatuan Village Office, Pulau Sembilan District, followed by product packaging and concluded with the handover of the product to the head of Pulau Persatuan Village. The activity was carried out smoothly and attended by 14 participants who showed high enthusiasm during the demonstration and discussion, and liked the produced biscuits.
