Abstract

This study aims to determine the source of eco-enzyme raw materials and the most appropriate dilution volume to produce quality eco-enzyme fertilizer for plant growth. 1 (sugar): 3 (fruit and vegetable waste): 10 (water). The resulting eco-enzyme liquid is processed into fertilizer through the dilution process. Eco-enzyme fertilizers from each raw material source contain different organic N, P, K, and C nutrients. Besides that, some enzymes are beneficial to plants. This research is experimental in the laboratory. The experimental design was factorial design using a completely randomized design as the based design with the treatment of various sources of raw material for eco-enzyme E1 (fruit waste), E2 (vegetable waste), and E3 (fruit and vegetable waste). The parameters observed are N, P, K, and C Organic. The results showed that in terms of the quality of eco-enzyme fertilizers, the best order of eco-enzyme fertilizers was eco-enzyme fertilizer from vegetable waste (E2), eco-enzyme fertilizer from fruit and vegetable waste (E3), and eco-enzyme fertilizer from fruit waste (E1). Based on the NPK content in eco-enzyme fertilizer, eco-enzyme fertilizer is still below the quality standard for liquid organic fertilizer but the enzymes contained in eco-enzymes can also spur growth in plants.

Abstract

Pellet Compost: A Practical, Sustainable, and Circular Economy-Based Solution for Household Waste Management. One type of waste that is readily available is leaf litter. Leaf litter is a major contributor to household waste. Compostable waste has great potential to be utilized optimally to provide both economic and ecological benefits. This community service program was carried out from July to November 2025 through several stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The purpose of this activity is to process organic waste into environmentally friendly pellet-based compost. Pellet-based compost is a solid organic fertilizer formed into pellets. Its shelf life is longer than loose compost. Pellet compost is drier, more visually appealing, richer in nutrients, and has a higher market value. The ingredient ratio in pellet production is a key factor that determines the quality, efficiency, and final performance of the pellets. The best ingredient ratio for pellet production between compos: tapioca flour: coconut shell charcoal: and water is 10:1:1:2. The sale of coconut shell charcoal pellets yields higher profits compared to bran and dolomite, amounting to Rp. 2,478 per piece. This approach offers a practical and sustainable solution, providing ecological benefits by reducing organic waste and supporting a circular economy in waste management. This community service initiative is expected to help the community understand how to produce pellet compost, enabling them to meet agricultural needs independently without relying on external raw materials. The program demonstrates that solving environmental issues can go hand in hand with improving the regional economy. This reflects the essence of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12, which is responsible consumption and production.
