Abstract

Palm oil frond waste is a type of agricultural waste that is quite abundant in Pematang Gubernur Village, Muara Bangkahulu District, Bengkulu City. To date, this waste has not been optimally utilized and tends to be discarded, thus potentially polluting the environment. This community service activity aims to improve community knowledge and skills in processing palm oil frond waste into compost through hands-on training (learning by doing). The implementation method includes identifying partner needs, counseling, technical training in composting, practical assistance, as well as evaluation and follow-up. The results of the activity show an increase in community knowledge and skills in composting, the formation of compost products resulting from the training, the development of training modules, and the formation of community-based compost processing groups. This activity proves that utilizing palm oil frond waste can be an environmentally friendly solution while supporting community food security.

Abstract

Despite coffee is one of the leading commodities in Bengkulu Province, the traditional drying process of coffee beans for 10-14 days are still a common practice. This research aims to design, fabricate, and evaluate the thermal performance of a 50 kg capacity wood-fueled coffee drying oven. A three-dimensional CFD model was developed using ANSYS Fluent to analyze temperature distribution within the drying chamber and optimize thermal performance prior to fabrication. Experimental testing was conducted to validate the numerical predictions under controlled operating conditions. The proposed technology is distinguished by its use of locally available biomass fuel. The results of the coffee drying oven simulation, under empty conditions, achieved the desired temperature based. The drying time for coffee beans in this research was 9 hours, achieving a moisture content of 10% to 13% (a moisture content of 12.5% is the Indonesian National Standard. Simulation results predicted chamber temperatures ranging from 67°C to 87°C with an inlet temperature of approximately 100°C, indicating adequate thermal conditions for drying. Experimental measurements showed good agreement with the CFD model, reaching near-steady thermal conditions within 25 minutes.

Abstract

The dependence of vegetable farmers in Muara Danau Village on chemical fertilizers is quite high, while the animal waste owned by almost all residents is just left to pile up around the pens. This community service activity aims to provide training to vegetable farmer groups and local livestock farmers on how to make liquid organic fertilizer from a mix of cow, goat, and chicken manure using a participatory approach. This includes assessing needs, socialization, hands-on training, guidance at demonstration plots, and evaluation. The liquid organic fertilizer is made by adding rice washing water, palm sugar or molasses, and the EM4 bioactivator, then fermenting it anaerobically for two to three weeks. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in participants’ understanding compared to the pre-test and post-test scores, especially regarding the amount of ingredients and product maturity indicators.Trials on demonstration plots of water spinach and mustard greens also showed that plant growth and soil conditions were better in plots given liquid organic fertilizer compared to control plots given chemical fertilizer. Some challenges faced during implementation included limited fermentation containers, the community’s old habits that hadn’t fully adapted yet, and weather impacts affecting fermentation consistency. This activity proves that livestock waste can be utilized to make quality liquid organic fertilizer and has the potential to be developed into a farmer group business.

Abstract

Muara Danau Village has numerous vacant plots surrounding residents’ homes that have historically been left to grow wild or used only sporadically without productive management, even though residents still largely rely on purchasing vegetables to meet their daily needs. This Community Service Program (KKN) aimed to encourage residents to utilize these vacant plots for vegetable cultivation through a participatory approach ranging from land inventory and outreach to practical planting training and guidance on demonstration plots. Activities were conducted across three types of land settings reflecting local conditions: semi-shaded home gardens, open land, and limited spaces utilizing polybags; trial crops included water spinach (kangkung), mustard greens (sawi), and bird’s-eye chili (cabai rawit). Results indicated a significant improvement in residents’ understanding of vegetable cultivation techniques and their habits regarding the recording of costs and yields compared to pre-training levels. Participants subsequently formed small groups to manage communal gardens and began initiating sales of their produce to local village shops and via social media. Despite facing challenges such as water scarcity during the dry season and limited market reach, the program successfully fostered an awareness among residents that vacant land around their homes could serve as both a food source and a means of generating additional family income.
