Abstract

Panduman Village, Jelbuk Jember District, is a fostered village by the University of Jember. Sumbercandik is one of the hamlets in Panduman Village with a geography of mountain slopes and hills and at an altitude that is very supportive for coffee farming/plantations. It is no wonder that the best coffee products are produced from this village. Ironically, the lives of many coffee farmers still fall into the pre-prosperous group. One of the reasons is that farmers sell coffee logs or wet-skinned coffee at relatively low prices. At the same time, factory-made chemical fertilizers have skyrocketed in price, and availability is strict. Various efforts have been made by the local government and other service teams related to these coffee farmers, but they have not touched those in Sumbercandik Hamlet. This community service seeks to uplift the economy of Panduman Village, especially the coffee farmers of Sumbercandik Hamlet, with the introduction of post-harvest coffee technology, utilization of coffee waste for fertilizer and briquettes, and management and cooperatives. This grant ceiling will carry out the proposal in three years. The first year was with the introduction of post-harvest technology in the form of wet and dry skin stripping (horn skin). In the second year, intensive drying techniques using technical and thermal methods. In addition, farmer group formation and simple production management. Year three, post-harvest waste processing technology. The first year's focus was on providing a coffee skin peeling machine. Each year will involve different lecturers with agricultural, management and cultural competencies. This activity is in line with the 2021-2025 RIPP of the University of Jember with the featured topic "Development of people's coffee towards an organic system to improve community welfare".

Abstract

This paper presents a community engagement initiative in Kuwon Village, Magetan Regency, aimed at enhancing agricultural productivity through compost production mechanization. The project, a collaboration between university researchers and local farmers, introduced organic composting techniques using a specially designed compost chopper machine. The initiative sought to address the challenges of high fertilizer costs and limited subsidized fertilizers, promoting sustainable agricultural practices and improving farmers' livelihoods. The primary goal was to provide an efficient, cost-effective method for producing organic compost, reducing dependency on chemical fertilizers, and improving soil health. The project followed a participatory approach, involving farmers at every stage—from needs assessment to design, fabrication, training, and implementation—ensuring solutions suited to the local community's needs. The compost chopper machine reduced time and labor in compost production, and farmers reported improved soil health and higher crop yields. The project also fostered community collaboration as farmers worked together to adopt new practices. Economic benefits included lower input costs and increased income from higher productivity. The success of this initiative highlights the potential of combining technological innovation with community involvement to tackle challenges faced by rural farmers in Indonesia, promoting sustainable agricultural development and improving livelihoods.
