Abstract

Compost produced by economically non-productive residents in Sawah Lebar Baru Subdistrict has remained underutilised, leading to accumulation and limited economic benefit. This community service activity aimed to introduce Seed Briquette Technology as an innovative solution to enhance the value and usability of household compost. The programme involved knowledge dissemination and hands-on training on how to produce seed briquettes using existing compost. The compost was compacted into Soil Blocks—pressed blocks with a central hole—using a manual moulding tool. This tool was introduced and distributed to local residents during a technology transfer session conducted by the Faculty of Engineering in RT 29. The participants responded with strong interest and demonstrated the ability to apply the technique successfully. Community members were able to convert their compost into functional seed briquettes, showcasing both skill development and successful adoption of the technology. As a result, the participants gained valuable technical skills which are expected to support future income generation. The activity highlights the potential of simple, locally adapted technologies to improve waste management and economic empowerment in urban communities.

Abstract

The community needs education to change from the first behavior which usually un-separates waste to separate the organic types into non-organic types, even needs developing to have a 3R behavior, reduce, reuse and recycle. Educational activities for the community of the RT 29 RW 08, the village Sawah Lebar Baru were begun with socialization and distributing brochures. In the following week, a questionnaire was distributed to assess who had a better perception of waste among them to be collected and formed into a group. This group was directed to develop their perception into behavior; they were given a means of separating organic and non-organic waste. In the upcoming activity program, an assessment will be carried out on them to find out which ones give more time voluntarily to manage waste. Those who do so will be developed into compost producers or craftsmen of valuable objects from waste
